    Harrison-Trainor

    contemporaryAnalytic Philosophy / Mathematical Logic

    Matthew Harrison-Trainor is a contemporary mathematical logician whose work spans computability theory, model theory, and the foundations of game theory. He has contributed to the philosophical analysis of sequential games, particularly regarding how players update plausibility judgments during actual play versus in theoretical equilibrium analysis.
