Giorgi Japaridze

Research and Publications

 

NOTE: Before 1994 the English spelling of my name was "Dzhaparidze", the result of a two-step transliteration Georgian -> Russian -> English, while the current "Japaridze" is a direct transliteration from Georgian into English. Don't get confused if you need to look up my name in some earlier literature.

Main Contributions to Science

 

Provability and interpretability logics

(1985-1998)

·        While a student, introduced what is now called "Japaridze's Polymodal Logic" GLP, and proved its arithmetical completeness. This contained a solution of an open problem on the logic of w-provability raised by George Boolos a decade earlier (1985-1988).

·        Introduced Logic D and proved its arithmetical completeness (1987).

·       Extended Solovay's theorems from propositional level to the one-variable predicate level, and introduced the corresponding sound and complete logic GLq (1987). 

·       Introduced the concepts of cointerpretability, tolerance and cotolerance (1992-1993).

·       Proved that cointerpretability is equivalent to S1-conservativity and tolerance is equivalent to P1-consistency. This was an answer to the long-standing open problem regarding the metamathematical meaning of S1-conservativity (1992-1993). 

·       Introduced modal logics for tolerance and proved their arithmetical completeness (1993).

·       Introduced a modal logic for the arithmetical hierarchy and proved its arithmetical completeness (1994).

·       And more...

Game semantics and the theory of interactive computation

(1997-present)

·       Introduced the Logic of Tasks (2000-2002). It later became a part of computability logic on one hand, and a part of abstract game semantics on the other hand.

·       Introduced and started elaborating Computability Logic. This is work with a beginning but no end. An ambitious program and platform for redeveloping logic as a formal theory of (interactive) computability, as opposed to the formal theory of truth that it has more traditionally been (2003-2007).

·       Proved the soundness and completeness of intuitionistic logic with respect to the semantics of computability logic. This signified a success in the 75-year quest for a materialization of Kolmogorov's (1932) well known yet rather abstract thesis, according to which intuitionistic logic is a logic of problems (2006-2007).

·       Introduced Abstract Resource Semantics (2006). 

·       And more...

Proof theory and deep inference

(2006-present)

 

Complexity theory

(2010-present)
