Dale Miller

Director of Research at
Inria Saclay - Île-de-France and the Laboratoire d'Informatique (LIX)

Team leader of Parsifal
ERC Advanced Grant ProofCert

I do research on the following topics in Computational Logic.

Proof theory: Classical, intuitionistic, and linear logics; focused proof systems; fixed points; higher-order quantification

Formalized meta-theory: two-level logic specifications, structured operational semantics

Automated reasoning: foundational proof certificates, unification, interactive theorem proving, Abella, Bedwyr

Logic programming: λProlog, λ-tree syntax, linear logic programming
