New Essays on Belnap-Dunn Logic

Hitoshi Omori is a postdoctoral researcher in logic at Kyoto University (Japan). He took his M.A. and Ph.D. in Logic at Tokyo Institute of Technology (Japan). After the completion of Ph.D., he was a postdoctoral researcher at Kobe University (Japan) and City University of New York (USA) before coming to Kyoto. His main interest is in philosophical logic, including paraconsistent, many-valued and modal logics, and dialetheism.

Before that he was a Professor of Philosophy of Science and Logic at Dresden University of Technology (1999-2010). He took his M.A. and his Ph.D. in Philosophy at the Free University of Berlin and his Habilitation in logic and analytical philosophy at the University of Leipzig. He is the author of "The Logic of Information Structures" (Springer 1993), "Displaying Modal Logic" (Kluwer 1998), "Truth and Falsehood. An Inquiry into Generalized Logical Values" (with Y. Shramko, Springer 2011), "Proof Theory of N4-related Paraconsistent Logics" (with K. Kamide, College Publications 2015) and numerous articles in professional journals. Heinrich Wansing has been working mainly on philosophical logic, including the semantics and proof theory of modal, constructive, paraconsistent, many-valued, and other nonclassical logics. Moreover, he is the Editor-in-Chief of the book series Trends in Logic (Springer), a managing editor of the journal Studia Logica, and a member of a number of other editorial boards of logic and philosophy journals.
