Logic in Computer Science. Applications of equational logic in Computer Science, with special focus on process algebras, formal languages, automata, tropical semirings, min-max algebras and the theory of fixed points. Structural Operational Semantics. Computational complexity of verification problems and of problems in bioinformatics.
