Pierre Castéran is a Professor at the University of Bordeaux, affiliated with the LaBRI (Laboratoire Bordelais de Recherche en Informatique). He is a co-author of Coq'Art , the first book on the Coq Proof Assistant, and has contributed extensively to its development through tutorials, technical papers, and research projects. His work includes exploring Hydra Battles and ordinal notations in Coq, as well as foundational contributions to type classes, inductive definitions, and epsilon operators. ACM Software System Award (2013) for Coq development His research interests span formal verification, mathematical logic, proof assistants, and the intersection of computer science with discrete mathematics. He has led projects like A3PAT (Assisting Proof Assistants) to enhance automation in formal methods. His technical work includes defining recursive path orderings, denumerable sets, and axiomatic presentations of ordinals. Collaborations include Yves Bertot ( Coq'Art ), Evelyne Contéjean (rpo termination proofs), and Matthieu Sozeau (type classes). He has created educational materials for Coq, including tutorials for Type Classes and inductive types, with examples updated across Coq versions.
