Résumé : La multiplicité des systèmes formels a mis en évidence la nécessité d'un socle logique commun dans lequel les formalismes logiques pourraient être exprimés. L'enjeu principal de ce manuscrit est la définition de techniques d'encodages reposant sur la réécriture de termes et capables de représenter les fonctionnalités avancées des systèmes de types modernes.

Summary: In the context of the multiplicity of formal systems, it has become a growing need to express formal proofs into a common logical framework. This thesis focuses on the use of higher-order term rewriting to embed complex formal systems in the simple and well-studied lambda-Pi calculus modulo. Read more...

L'Université Paris-Saclay organise une école d'été invitant les lycéennes de seconde et collégiennes de 4ème à découvrir les nouvelles sciences.

Le LMF participe à cette initiative avec une présentation des métiers de la recherche et un atelier de robotique avec capteurs. Le but de l'atelier est de concevoir quelques algorithmes distribués simples Read more...

Aliaume Lopez received the 2024 E. W. Beth Dissertation Prize for his thesis First Order Preservation Theorems in Finite Model Theory : Locality, Topology, and Limit Constructions.

The prize, named in honor of the Dutch mathematician Evert Willem Beth, was established in 1998 by the Association for Logic, Language, and Information (FoLLI) and is awarded annually for outstanding dissertations in the fields of Logic, Language, and Information.

Aliaume prepared his thesis under the joint supervision of Jean Goubault-Larrecq at LSV, then LMF, and of Sylvain Schmitz at IRIF.

Marie Fortin received the EATCS Distinguished Dissertation Award for 2020. The award established by the European Association of Theoretical Computer Science recognises outstanding dissertations in the field of Theoretical Computer Science.

Marie prepared her thesis Expressivity of first-order logic, star-free propositional dynamic logic and communicating automata at LSV under the supervision of Benedikt Bollig and Paul Gastin.

The team of Jean-​Christophe Filliâtre and Andrei Paskevich was recognised Best overall team at this year's VerifyThis Competition. The team of Quentin Garchery and Xavier Denis won the first place for the Best student team award.

VerifyThis is a series of program verification competitions, which takes place annually since 2011. The competition offers a number of challenges presented in natural language and pseudocode. Participants have to formalise the requirements, implement a solution, and formally verify the implementation for adherence to the specification.
