Description:
There has been recently a reawaking of interest in many aspects of realizability interpretations -- especially as regards semantics of type theories for constructive reasoning and semantics of programming languages. But, the details of realizability can be quite technical, and so the aim of the workshop is to have several tutorial lectures on history, basic definitions and results, recent applications, connections to category theory, and then leave room for contributed research talks of 30 minutes each. Beside the topics mentioned above, we solicit contributions on applications of realizability to topics such as: Recursive Definitions of Types, Connections with Synthetic/Axiomatic Domain Theory, Applications to Normalization, Modal Logics, Logical Relations, Uses for Specification and Verification, Automated Deduction, and Extraction of Algorithms. Reports on work in progress are encouraged.

The plan for the workshop is to have three tutorial sessions on various aspects of realizability, and four sessions devoted to technical contributions, but adjustments may take place when the final list of papers is available.

Speakers: Jaap van Oosten, Andrew Pitts, Aurelio Carboni, Luke Ong, Dag Normann, Ulrich Berger, Bernhard Reus
