Among several other research topics, you will find details about the KeYmaera Verification Tool for Hybrid Systems and the theory of differential dynamic logic for hybrid systems verification.
This page further hosts the Orbital library for Java, which provides several object-oriented or functional representations and algorithms for logic, mathematics, and artificial intelligence.
Information on the courses I teach at Carnegie Mellon University can be found in the Teaching Section.
See List of Publications for more information on publications that are related to logic, computer science, and mathematics
