About

The workshop centers aroud symbolic dynamics and its connections to number theory and theoretical computer science, particularly through verification and model checking. We focus on expansions provided by dynamical systems of an arithmetic nature in the context of numeration systems and continued fractions. We also consider various applications within the algorithmic theory of discrete linear dynamical systems including decision problem for linear recurrences and for logic (e.g., monadic second-order logic, Presburger arithmetic, automata theory).
