The general area of the thesis is  logics for multi-agent
systems. In particular we are interested in the study of logical formalisms
for agents that interact through communication and that can reason

on the study of suitable modal logics and on the development of
automated deduction methods for these logics.

Candidates must have a MSc or equivalent degree in Computer Science,
Mathematics or related fields, and an excellent record of study.
They should have a solid background in computer science,
