Description

This workshop celebrates the past 30 years of active research in the area of Finite Model Theory (FMT) in Finland. Research in FMT in Finland began due to joint efforts of Phokion G. Kolaitis and Jouko Väänänen in the end of 1980’s. The concrete starting point for research among the Finnish logicians was the keynote lecture of Kolaitis at Logic Colloquium 1990 and a summer school in FMT held in 1991.
