Lauri Hella, Ph.D., Professor


Research

My research area is Finite Model Theory; I am especially interested in definability issues for generalized quantifiers on finite structures, and the role of generalized quantifiers in descriptive complexity theory.

I am leading a research group of Logic at the University of Tampere. We also have a joint  research group working on finite model theory together with the Helsinki logic group. The finite model theory group organizes a research seminar, and we are one of the participants in the Graduate School of Mathematics and Applications.

Here is a link to a list of finite model theory people, which is maintained in Aachen.


Teaching

In the autumn 2010, I am teaching the course Diskreetti matematiikka.
