LOFT_13  2018: Call for Papers
Thirteenth Conference on Logic and the Foundations of Game and Decision Theory
Bocconi University (Milano, Italy), July 16-18, 2018

PROGRAM CHAIRS:

Pierpaolo Battigalli, Bocconi University, Milano, Italy
Wiebe van der Hoek, University of Liverpool, United Kingdom

AIMS OF THE CONFERENCE

This is the 13th in a series of bi-annual conferences on the applications 
of logical methods to foundational issues in the theory of individual and 
interactive decision-making. Preference is given to papers that bring 
together the work and problems of several fields, such as game and 
decision theory, logic, computer science and artificial intelligence, 
philosophy, cognitive psychology, mathematics and mind sciences.

The previous eleven conferences took place in Marseille (France), January 
1994, Torino (Italy), December 1996, December 1998, July 2000 and July 
2002, Leipzig (Germany), July 2004, Liverpool (UK), July 2006, Amsterdam 
(The Netherlands), July 2008, Toulouse (France), July 2010, Sevilla 
(Spain), 2012, Bergen (Norway), 2014 and Maastricht (The Netherlands) 
2016.

Among the topics of particular relevance are:
 	? Modal logics for games and protocols: epistemic and deontic logic, multi-agent logic, temporal logic, dynamic logic, probabilistic and multivalued logic, logic of belief revision.
 	? Foundations of game and decision theory: epistemic foundations of solution concepts, information processing and communication in games, belief formation and revision in games.
 	? Learning and information-processing models: economic aspects of information processing, learning in game-theoretic contexts, inductive learning and inductive decision making.
 	? Bounded rationality approaches to game and decision theory.

SUBMISSION INFORMATION

The three-day conference will give opportunity for paper presentations and 
discussions. Potential contributors should submit an extended abstract of
