Dear reader, due to a number of requests, we have decided to move the deadline for sending papers with a week, to March 8, 2018. LOFT_13 2018: Final 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: Giacomo Bonanno, University of California Davis, USA 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 approximately 5 - 10 pages in PDF format through https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=loft2018 Note that the 10-page limit (excluding references and appendix) is a HARD CONTRAINT: submissions exceeding 10 pages will NOT be considered. The deadline for submission is March 8, 2018, and authors will be notified of acceptance decisions by April 15, 2018. Papers that have appeared in print, or are known to appear in print, before the conference, should not be submitted for presentation at LOFT.
