CALL FOR PAPERS

Epistemic Logic for Individual\, Social\, and Interactive Epistemology (ELISIEM)

https://sites.google.com/site/elisiem2014/

August 11-15\, 2014

organized as part of the

European Summer School on Logic\, Language\, and Information

ESSLLI 2014 http://www.esslli2014.info/

August 11-22\, 2014 in Tü\;bingen\, Germany

Workshop Organizers:

Wesley Holliday (UC Berkeley) - wesholliday@berkeley.edu

Thomas Icard (Stanford University) - icard@stanford.edu

Workshop Purpose:

Epistemic Logic is a formal approach to modeling knowledge\, belief\, and other informational attitudes\, developed by logicians\, philosophers\, computer scientists\, AI researchers\, economists\, linguists\, and others. Historically\, with its origins in philosophy\, epistemic logic promised to illuminate traditional issues of epistemology\, the theory of knowledge. In recent years\, epistemic logic has been making good on that promise\, with important new applications not only to individual epistemology\, a traditional focus of philosophers for the last two-and-a-half thousand years\, but also in social epistemology\, the more recent investigation of the social dimensions of knowledge and information flow\, as well as interactive epistemology\, the study of knowledge and belief in strategic\, game-theoretic situations. \;

During five 90-minute sessions\, the ELISIEM workshop will feature presentations covering the latest applications of epistemic logic to individual\, social\, and interactive epistemology\, putting work at this fascinating intersection on the map of interdisciplinary activities in logic.

Workshop Topics:

Topics of interest include\, but are not limited to:

Formal models of knowledge
Epistemic closure \;
Logical omniscience
Higher-order knowledge
Knowability
Epistemic paradoxes
Epistemic contextualism
Multi-dimensional epistemic logic
De se / self-locating attitudes
Dynamic epistemic logic
Epistemic logic and belief revision
Epistemic logic and learning theory
Quantified epistemic logic

Pluralistic ignorance
Group knowledge
Information in games
Epistemic foundations of game theory
