*Call for Papers* TARK 2013 14th Conference on Theoretical Aspects of Rationality and Knowledge January 7-9, 2013 The Institute of Mathematical Sciences, Chennai, India Conference website: http://www.imsc.res.in/tark/ About the Conference The mission of the TARK conferences is to bring together researchers from a wide variety of fields, including Artificial Intelligence, Cryptography, Distributed Computing, Economics and Game Theory, Linguistics, Philosophy, and Psychology, in order to further our understanding of interdisciplinary issues involving reasoning about rationality and knowledge. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, semantic models for knowledge, belief, awareness and uncertainty, bounded rationality and resource-bounded reasoning, commonsense epistemic reasoning, epistemic logic, epistemic game theory, knowledge and action, applications of reasoning about knowledge and other mental states, belief revision, and foundations of multi-agent systems. Invited Speakers Pierpaolo Battigalli, Bocconi University Lin Fangzhen, Hong Kong University of Science and Technology Rineke Verbrugge, University of Groningen Submissions are now invited to TARK 2013. Extended Abstracts can be submitted here: https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=tark2013 Strong preference will be given to papers whose topic is of interest to an interdisciplinary audience, and papers should be accessible to such an audience. Papers will be held to the usual high standards of research publications. In particular, they should 1) contain enough information to enable the program committee to identify the main contribution of the work; 2) explain the significance of the work -- its novelty and its practical or theoretical implications; and 3) include comparisons with and references to relevant literature. Abstracts should be no longer than ten double-spaced pages (4,000 words). Optional technical details such as proofs may be included in an appendix. An email address of the contact author should be included. Papers arriving late or departing significantly from these guidelines risk immediate rejection. One author of each accepted paper will be expected to present the paper at the conference. Economists should be aware that special arrangements have been made with certain economics journals (in particular, with International Journal of Game Theory, Games and Economic Behavior, Journal of Economic Theory, and Mathematical Social Sciences, so that publication of an extended abstract in TARK will not prejudice publication of a full journal version. TARK 2013 will precede the Indian Conference on Logics and Applications (ICLA) held from January 10 - 12, 2013, also at the Institute for Mathematical Sciences in Chennai, India. TARK 2013 is the 14th conference of the TARK conference series. Previous conferences have been held bi-annually around the world. The most recent conference was held 2011 at the University of Groningen, Netherlands, see http://www.philos.rug.nl/TARK2011/. The proceedings of all previous TARK conferences can be accessed here http://www.tark.org/. TARK 2013 is the first TARK conference to be held in India. It is also the first TARK conference to be held in January. Key Dates for TARK 2013 Submission of abstracts: September 3, 2012 Notification of authors: October 29, 2012 Camera ready copy of accepted papers: November 30, 2012 Conference: January 7 - 9, 2013, Institute of Mathematical Sciences, Chennai, India Program Committee Samson Abramsky, Oxford University Thomas Agotnes, Universitetet i Bergen Hans van Ditmarsch, Universidad de Sevilla Amanda Friedenberg, Arizona State University Aviad Heifetz, The Open University of Israel Jerome Lang, CNRS and Université Paris-Dauphine Fenrong Liu, Tsinghua University Larry Moss, Indiana University, Bloomington Antonio Penta, University of Wisconsin-Madison Andres Perea, Maastricht University Ramaswamy Ramanujam, Institute for Mathematical Sciences, Chennai Olivier Roy, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München Burkhard C.
