Second International Workshop on Logical Frameworks and Meta-Languages: Theory and Practice (LFMTP'07) 15 July, 2007 Bremen, Germany http://www.cs.mcgill.ca/~bpientka/lfmtp07/ A CADE-21 affiliated workshop http://www.cadeconference.org/meetings/cade21/ Logical frameworks and meta-languages form a common substrate for representing, implementing, and reasoning about a wide variety of deductive systems of interest in logic and computer science. Their design and implementation has been the focus of considerable research over the last two decades, using competing and sometimes incompatible basic principles. This workshop will bring together designers, implementors, and practitioners to discuss all aspects of logical frameworks. Topics include, but are not limited to: - logical framework design - meta-theoretic analysis - applications and comparative studies - implementation techniques - efficient proof representation and validation - proof-generating decision procedures and theorem provers - proof-carrying code - substructural frameworks - semantic foundations - methods for reasoning about logics - formal digital libraries. Invited speaker: Randy Pollack. Locally Nameless Representation and Nominal Isabelle Accepted papers: Alberto Momigliano, Alan J. Martin and Amy P. Felty. Two-Level Hybrid: A System for Reasoning Using Higher-Order Abstract Syntax William Lovas and Frank Pfenning. A Bidirectional Refinement Type System for LF Paul Callaghan. Coercive Subtyping via Mappings of Reduction Behaviour Brigitte Pientka, Florent Pompigne and Xi Li. Focusing the Inverse Method for LF: a Preliminary Report Julien Narboux and Christian Urban. A Formalisation of the Logical Relation Proof given by Crary for Completeness of Equivalence Checking Alexandre Buisse and Peter Dybjer. Formalizing Categorical Models of Type Theory in Type Theory Michael Zeller, Aaron Stump and Morgan Deters. A Signature Compiler for the Edinburgh LF Anders Schack-Nielsen. Induction on Concurrent Terms Fredrik Lindblad. Higher-Order Proof Construction Based on First-Order Narrowing Murdoch Gabbay and Stephane Lengrand.
