CONFERENCE ANNOUNCEMENT AND CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

THE CONSTRUCTIVE IN LOGIC AND APPLICATIONS.
A 60TH BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION HONORING SERGEI ARTEMOV
May 23­25, 2012, in the CUNY Graduate Center, 365 Fifth Avenue, New York City.
____________________

Constructivity is fundamental  to the application 
of mathematics to the real world, whether in the 
exact sciences, the social sciences, or 
engineering. Constructive logics  supporting this 
tradition have flourished over the last century. 
This conference is a celebration of the past and 
future of the constructive tradition.

Distinguished logician Sergei Artemov is 60.  He 
has made fundamental contributions exploring 
constructivity in logic, computer science, 
epistemology, game theory, and other areas.  With 
this conference we honor his work, and by 
extension a subject whose content he has 
elucidated and whose boundaries he has expanded.
