Texts in Logic and Games
Jörg Flum, Erich Grädel, Thomas Wilke
Logic and Automata
History and Perspectives

Mathematical logic and automata theory are two scientific disciplines with a fundamentally close relationship. The authors of Logic and Automata take the occasion of the sixtieth birthday of Wolfgang Thomas to present a tour d’horizon of automata theory and logic. The twenty papers in this volume cover many different facets of logic and automata theory, emphasizing the connections to other disciplines such as games, algorithms, and semigroup theory, as well as discussing current challenges in the field.

Jörg Flum is professor of mathematical logic at the University of Freiberg. Erich Grädel is professor of mathematical logic at the University of Aachen. Thomas Wilke is professor of computer science at the University of Kiel.

Reviews
Mathematical logic and automata theory are basic to the
theory of computation, and for the verification and
synthesis of computing systems. This comprehensive volume
gives a grand view of the field and its connections to
complexity theory, algorithms, and games.

Professor Bernhard von Stengel, London School of Economics
