Summary on Grant Application Form
Semantic models for formal languages (in logic and in computer science) allow one to reason about these languages. This project focuses on two important types of semantics, relational and algebraic, and the connections between them. These connections are studied using the tools of duality and canonical extensions, which provide concrete models of the mathematical structures involved. These are ordered algebraic structures (chiefly lattices with additional operations) and, on the relational side, ordered structures, with and without topology.
