Workshop on Compositional Meaning in Logic [GeTFun 2.0]
Affiliated with the Vienna Summer of Logic [VSL 2014]

Vienna, Austria
July 22-23, 2014
Submission deadline: April 5, 2014
Submission deadline (extended): April 21, 2014

The Fregean-inspired Principle of Compositionality of Meaning (PoC),
for formal languages, may be construed as asserting that the meaning
of a compound expression is deterministically (and often recursively)
analysable in terms of the meaning of its constituents, taking into
account the mode in which these constituents are combined so as to
form the compound expression. From a logical point of view, this
amounts to prescribing a constraint - that may or may not be respected
- on the internal mechanisms that build and give meaning to a formal
system.  Within the domain of formal semantics and of the structure of
logical derivations, PoC is often directly reflected by metaproperties
such as truth-functionality and analyticity, characteristic of
computationally well-behaved logical systems.

After the success of the first edition, the Workshop on Compositional
Meaning in Logic [GeTFun 2.0] is again dedicated to the study of
various well-motivated ways in which such attractive properties and
metaproperties may be stretched so as to cover more extensive logical
grounds. The ubiquity of non-classical logics in the formalization of
practical reasoning demands the formulation of more flexible theories
of meaning and compositionality that allow for the establishment of
coherent and inclusive bases for their understanding. Such
investigations presuppose not only the development of adequate
frameworks from the perspectives of Model Theory, Proof Theory and
Universal Logic, but also the construction of solid bridges between
the related approaches based on various generalizations of
truth-functionality. Applications of broadly truth-functional logics,
in their various guises, are envisaged in several areas of computer
science, mathematics, philosophy and linguistics, where the ever
increasing complexity of systems continuously raises new and difficult
challenges to compositionality.

We welcome submissions on all topics related to compositionality of
meaning in logic, and in particular to issues connected to
generalizations of metalogical notions such as:

- truth-functionality
- nondeterminism in semantics
- logical bivalence vs algebraic many-valuedness
- analyticity
- subformula principle and complexity measures
- semantic effectiveness and decision procedures for non-classical logics
- cut-free vs cut-based proof formalisms
- proof strategies and proof-search
- modular logical specification formalisms
- rule invertibility, structurality and logical harmony

Submissions should consist of an abstract of up to 1,000 words, sent
by email before April 21, 2014 to <[email protected]>.

At least one author of each accepted contribution is expected to
participate in the workshop and present the work. The registration
fee, standard to the VSL event, is 200 euro per participant.
A post-workshop special issue of the journal Logica Universalis is
being planned, with fresh refereeing, in all cases.
