Special Issue on

Advances and Perspectives in the Mechanization of Mathematics

Guest Editors: Andrea Asperti and Jeremy Avigad

Call for contributions

Recent advances in automated reasoning and interactive theorem proving
have made it possible to formalize and mechanically check substantial
mathematical theorems, such as the prime number theorem, the four color
theorem, and the Jordan curve theorem. In particular, a number of
interactive proof assistants have been developed to help users manage
libraries of definitions and theorems, and fill in the inferential
details of a mathematical argument. Automated methods are also often
used to verify calculations that are too long and complex to check by
hand. As mathematical proofs become more complicated and, increasingly,
rely on extensive calculation, this gives rise to an exciting
interaction between traditional methods and computational means of
verifying mathematical claims.

The present issue is devoted to recent advances and new perspectives in
this field, including descriptions of formalizations, thoughtful
reflection on the future of the discipline, novel insights, innovative
research directions, and critical assessments of the current state of
the art.

Deadlines

Deadline for submissions: June 28, 2010
Author's notification: September 27, 2010

Submissions:

All papers should be written in pdf and submitted via the EasyChair
system, accessible at the following address:
https://www.easychair.org/login.cgi?conf=mscsadvancesandperspectivesint
Authors are invited to write their papers following the mscs
instructions available in the MSCS guide for contributors downloadable
here: http://assets.cambridge.org/MSC/MSC_ifc.pdf.

Extended versions of work previously published in conference proceedings
are eligible for submission but authors should make it clear how their
submission improves upon the conference publication; in those cases
where Cambridge University Press is not the publisher of the original
conference proceedings, authors should take care to avoid infringing
that publisher's copyright. Authors who wish to discuss potential
submissions are encouraged to contact the guest editors.

Papers should not be longer than 35 pages; shorter papers are obviously
welcome.
