======================================================================

The Panhellenic Logic Symposium (PLS), a biennial scientific event established in 1997, aims to promote interaction and cross-fertilization among different areas of logic. Originally conceived as a way of bringing together the many logicians of Hellenic descent throughout the world, it has evolved into an international forum for the communication of state-of-the-art advances in logic. The symposium is open to researchers worldwide who work in logic broadly conceived.

Areas of interest include (but are not limited to):

– Categorical logic
– Computability theory
– History of Logic
– Logic in Computer Science
– Logic in Human Reasoning
– Model theory
– Nonclassical and modal logics
– Philosophical logic
– Proof theory
– Reasoning in AI
– Set theory

SHORT SUMMER SCHOOL (Pre-Symposium)

This edition of PLS will host a short summer school during July 2–4, 2026, aimed primarily at students. Participation is open to advanced undergraduates, MSc and PhD students, postdoctoral researchers, and anyone interested in logic. The goal of the summer school is to prepare participants for this year’s main tutorials by Maryanthe Malliaris and Alexander S. Kechris.

The Short Summer School will feature
A crash course in Model Theory taught by Adele Padgett (University of Vienna).
A crash course in Descriptive Set Theory taught by Forte Shinko (UC Berkeley).
A crash course in Set Theory taught by Benjamin Siskind (TU Wien).
