Scholar-generated biography
Andrea Schalk is a researcher in the School of Computer Science at the University of Manchester, specializing in categorical models of logics and computation. Her work explores the intersection of category theory and logic, particularly in the context of linear logic and its models. She has published extensively on topics such as glueing, orthogonality, and the construction of fully abstract models for observational precongruence. Her research also includes the study of games on graphs, sequentially realizable functionals, and the categorical interpretation of Gandy's principles for mechanisms. Schalk's contributions focus on understanding the semantics of logical systems through algebraic and categorical frameworks.
