Title: Dynamic Logic of Propositional Assignments and its Properties
Abstract. Dynamic Logic of Propositional Assignments (DL-PA) is a
variant of PDL whose atomic programs are assignments of propositional
variables. It provides an interesting framework for knowledge
representation. Its mathematical properties differ from PDL:
satisfiability and model checking are both PSPACE-complete. These
results follow from the close relation of DL-PA with quantified
boolean formulas, coming with expressivity and succinctness results.
Hope to see you there!

Dear all,
We would like to draw your attention to the
***Annual VvL Seminar 2023***
The second edition of the (in-person) Annual VvL Seminar will be
organized by Utrecht University. The event is inspired by the
departmental logic seminars that are organized at each university, and
aims to unify the universities for a collaborative seminar. Besides
hosting a main speaker, the seminar will also be the location of the
award ceremony of the VvL MSc Thesis Prize winners, who will give a
short presentation of their thesis. The details of the event can be
found below, as well as on the VvL website
https://verenigingvoorlogica.nl/en/Activiteiten/VvL-Joint-Seminar/
*Main speaker*: Natasha Alechina
*MSc Thesis Prize winners*: Rodrigo Almeida (supervisors: Nick
Bezhanishvili and Tommaso Moraschini), Søren Brinck Knudstorp
(supervisors: Johan van Benthem and Nick Bezhanishvili), Raoul
Koudijs (supervisor: Balder ten Cate)
*Date & time*: December 8, 2023, 14:30-17:30
