SPECIAL SESSION IN HONOUR OF Frank Pfenning

To celebrate the 60th birthday of Frank Pfenning and his great many 
contributions to the topics of LFMTP, one session will be devoted to talks 
by collaborators and friends of Frank.


ABOUT LFMTP

Logical frameworks and meta-languages form a common substrate for 
representing, implementing and reasoning about a wide variety of deductive 
systems of interest in logic and computer science. Their design, 
implementation and their use in reasoning tasks, ranging from the 
correctness of software to the properties of formal systems, have been the 
focus of considerable research over the last two decades. This workshop 
will bring together designers, implementors and practitioners to discuss 
various aspects impinging on the structure and utility of logical 
frameworks, including the treatment of variable binding, inductive and 
co-inductive reasoning techniques and the expressiveness and lucidity of 
the reasoning process.

LFMTP 2020 will provide researchers a forum to present state-of-the-art 
techniques and discuss progress in areas such as the following:

* Encoding and reasoning about the meta-theory of programming languages, 
process calculi and related formally specified systems.

* Formalisation of model-theoretic and proof-theoretic semantics of logics.

* Theoretical and practical issues concerning the treatment of variable 
binding, especially the representation of, and reasoning about, datatypes 
defined from binding signatures.

* Logical treatments of inductive and co-inductive definitions and 
associated reasoning techniques, including inductive types of higher 
dimension in homotopy type theory.
* Graphical languages for building proofs and their applications in 
geometry, equational reasoning and category theory.

* New theory contributions: canonical and substructural frameworks, 
contextual frameworks, proof-theoretic foundations supporting binders, 
functional programming over logical frameworks, homotopy and cubical type 
theory.

* Applications of logical frameworks: proof-carrying architectures, proof 
exchange and transformation, program refactoring, etc.

* Techniques for programming with binders in functional programming 
languages such as Haskell, OCaml or Agda, and logic programming languages 
such as lambda Prolog or Alpha-Prolog.

* Design and implementation of systems and tools related to meta-languages 
and logical frameworks

SUBMISSION INFORMATION

In addition to regular papers, we accept the submission of "work in 
progress" reports, in a broad sense. Those do not need to report fully 
polished research results, but should be of interest for the community at 
large.

Submitted papers should be in PDF, formatted using the EPTCS LaTeX style. 
The length is restricted to 15 pages for regular papers and 8 pages for 
"Work in Progress" papers.

Submission is via EasyChair:
https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=lfmtp2020

All submissions will be peer-reviewed and the authors of those accepted 
will be invited to present their papers at the workshop.


POST-PROCEEDINGS

After the workshop we will publish post-proceedings in the Electronic 
Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science (EPTCS) series.

Accepted regular papers will be published in the post-proceedings.

Authors of selected work-in-progress papers will be invited to submit the 
full versions of their papers for publication in the post-proceedings, 
subject to another round of review.
