Aim. Weak arithmetics play a fundamental role in several areas of philosophy, mathematics, and computer science, by studying the nature and properties of natural numbers from a logical point of view. The aim of the conference is to provide a forum for researchers to present their results to members of communities who study or apply weak arithmetics in various fields and formalisms. Previous JAFs.
Topics. Proofs in arithmetic with restricted system of axioms; non-standard models of such systems; decidability, undecidability, and complexity of arithmetical theories; definability in arithmetic structures; machines, automata and words, related to arithmetic; finite model theory, word structures.
Location. Institute of Mathematics, Czech Academy of Sciences. The institute is in the centre of Prague, a few minutes walk from Wenceslas Square.
