Research Interests

My research focuses on topics in logic, philosophy of logic, and philosophy (mainly metaphysics) of time. As for logic, I work in the broad field of non-classical logics. Here, I am concerned with some many-valued logics (e.g., Weak Kleene Logics), as well as with some other non-classical systems (e.g., Priest's Logic of Paradox and DLEAC). I am also interested in game theoretical semantics and their philosophical justification. As for the philosophy of logic, I investigated some consequences of dialetheism, and I am currently exploring some foundational issues related to abduction. Further, I am deeply involved with some other subjects such as the paradoxes of self-reference and semantic closure, the issue of normativity of logic, and logical pluralism. Finally, regarding the philosophy of time, which I am currently working on, I am focusing on fragmentalism and the notion of temporal passage.
