Description
This volume contains articles covering a broad spectrum of proof theory, with an emphasis on its mathematical aspects. The articles should
not only be interesting to specialists of proof theory, but should also be accessible to a diverse audience, including logicians, mathematicians,
computer scientists and philosophers. Many of the central topics of proof theory have been included in a self-contained expository of
articles, covered in great detail and depth.
The chapters are arranged so that the two introductory articles come first; these are
then followed by articles from core classical areas of proof theory; the handbook concludes with articles that deal with topics closely
related to computer science.
