Workshop on Set Theory at ISLA 2010

January 25–29, 2010

University of Hyderabad, Gachibowli, India

http://isla2010.theano.de/


This workshop is intended to be a research event for set theorists around the world, covering the major areas of set theory, such as large cardinals, infinite games, forcing, and descriptive set theory. At the same time, we expect that the workshop provides a learning atmosphere for the student participants of ISLA 2010. We encourage all speakers of the workshop to aim at least half of their presentations at a student audience, and we specially welcome talks in tutorial style or presentations by students who present their research. In total, we expect 10 presentations of 45 minutes each, spread over four days.


Speakers include James Cummings (Carnegie Mellon University, Pennsylvania, USA), Natasha Dobrinen (University of Denver, Colorado, USA), Yurii Khomskii (University of Amsterdam, Netherlands), Dilip Raghavan (University of Toronto, Canada).
