Mechanical geometry theorem proving, mechanization of standard and nonstandard analysis, interactive and automatic proofs.

Dr. Jacques Fleuriot received a  First Class Honours MEng Computing degree in Artificial Intelligence from Imperial College, London (1995) and a PhD in Automated Reasoning from the University of Cambridge (May 1999).  He received scholarships from the Government of Mauritius, Imperial College, The University of Cambridge and the Overseas Research Students Awards Scheme in support of his studies.  His PhD focused on the mechanization of proofs from Newton's Principia using the proof assistant Isabelle.  He received a British Computer Society Distinguished Dissertation Award for this work in 2000.  In 1999, after completing his PhD, he was appointed to the post of Lecturer in Automated Reasoning at the School of Informatics at the University of Edinburgh.

Dr. Fleuriot has been principal investigator on recent grants involving diverse areas such as collaborative theorem proving and computer-based modelling for healthcare.  He has been co-investigator on several grants on mathematical reasoning including a current EPSRC platform grant.  He is currently the principal supervisor for several PhD students and. over the years, has acted as principal or co-supervisor for over 10 successful PhD students.  He currenlty teaches courses in automated reasoning and formal verification to both undergraduates and masters students.
