1. Pedagogical activity of the team members, including involvement of students in the research
Maximum length of 5 pages.
Most researchers in our group do not teach on a regular basis. Nevertheless, we have had a lot of contacts with students, mainly from Charles University. The central role in these interactions play our regular seminars, Logic Seminar, Complexity Seminar and Seminar on Reckoning. Students from Charles University can sign in and get credit credit for attending these seminars. Most students participate actively and present their own work or give presentations of some recent important results.
In the fall of 2011, Jan Krajíček organized a special semester Logic and Complexity in the framework of the European project Maloa at Charles University. Two semester-long courses Proof complexity and the P vs. NP problem, given by Krajíček, and Logical aspects of complexity theory, given by Pudlák, took place in the Institute of Mathematics. The courses were attended by students from 10 different countries.
Krajíček, Koucký, Sgall while their main affiliation was still in the institute gave many advanced courses at the Faculty of Mathematics and Physics of Charles University. Koucký also gave a course for graduate students Random walks on graphs and their applications at Aarhus University, Denmark. Chodounský gave courses on forcing, Hladký on stochastic processes (Technical University of Prague), Jeřábek on model theory. Pudlák has a regular course Logic for Computer Science.
Komenda and Masopust gave 5 courses at the DISC School on Control of Discrete-Event Systems in Cagliari, Italy, in June 2011. The School has been organized for Ph.D. students mainly from European countries in the framework of the ICT-224498 European Project DISC.
Members of the group supervised several students. The most successful PhD students were Michal Doucha (supervised by Zapletal) and Jan Bulánek (supervised by Koucký).
2. Participation of the team members in the activities of the scientific community
