Alexis Saurin

I am a CNRS researcher at IRIF (Institut de Recherche en Informatique fondamentale), member of PPS pole and Picube Inria team.

I am in charge, with Esaïe Bauer of the Formath seminar, which is the seminar of Picube INRIA team. I am also responsible, with Pierre Clairambault and Chantal Keller, of chairing the Scalp working group of GDR-IM and organizing its annual meetings.

I am an elected member of the research council and the academic council of the faculty of Science at Université Paris Cité.

My research interests are at the interplay between structural proof theory and the theory of programming, both from a syntactical and semantical perspective. More precisely, I am currently interested in:

  • fixed points in logic and programming
  • circular and non-wellfounded proofs
  • linear logic and computational interpretations of classical and intuitinistic logic
  • type theory and in particular inductive and coinductive types
  • interactive theorem proving
  • proof nets and the logic of correctness criteria
  • interactive and denotational semantics of proofs and programs
  • lambda-calculus and its classical and infinitary extensions
  • focusing

You can find an updated list of my publications on DBLP.

This semester, I am teaching at Master LMFI (second year master in mathematical logic and foundations of computer science) at Université Paris Cité.

Last year, I was teachnig with Thomas Colcombet the course on
