Antonio Casares Santos

I am a PhD student in Theoretical Computer Science at LaBRI (Université de Bordeaux, France) under the supervision of Thomas Colcombet, Nathanaël Fijalkow and Igor Walukiewicz.

My research interests lie in the intersection of logic, formal languages and games on graphs. In particular, I am currently studying properties of ω-automata (minimisation, transformations, positionality of ω-regular languages...), as well as algorithms for solving infinite duration games.

Before that, I studied mathematics at Universidad de Valladolid (Spain), and obtained my M. Sc. in Mathematical Logic and Foundations of Computer Science at Université de Paris (France).

You will find more information in my CV.

I defended my PhD thesis entitled Structural properties of automata over infinite words and memory for games on 23 November 2023. Below you can find:
