PhD Students

• Kristjan Liiva, University of Edinburgh (2013-). Co-supervised with Dr Paul B. Jackson, Edinburgh.

  Kristjan is working on decision methods in real algebra and analysis, with a special interest in the design and application of SMT-oriented decision procedures for nonlinear real arithmetic. In July, 2014, he will begin receiving support from Microsoft Research, Cambridge, with Christoph Wintersteiger as his MSR mentor.
