14th International Workshop in Set Theory
9 – 13 October, 2017
Menachem Magidor (Hebrew University of Jerusalem)
Boban Velickovic (Université Paris Diderot)
Hugh Woodin (Harvard University)
The goal of these meetings is the dissemination of some of the most important recent results in set theory, as well as the structuring of the scientific community in this subject. These meetings are of very high scientific level, and generally include around 10 invited ICM speakers and researchers from the best universities around the world, as well as around 10 young promising researchers. They play an important role in the attractiveness of France and even Europe in this subject. They also help the set theoretic community, which is spread out in various parts of the world.
In terms of organisation, the program committee chooses 2 or 3 main themes and invites renowned researchers to give mini courses on these topics. It also selects the participants, taking into consideration both geographic and thematic diversity. We also try to vary the participants in such a way that over a cycle of 3-4 meetings every active researcher in this subject has a chance to be invited. The scientific program is planned by the participants themselves.
In this workshop, we plan to hold two mini courses, one in pure set theory and the other on the interactions with other areas of mathematics. In the ‘pure’ part, we will concentrate on new exciting developments in singular cardinal combinatorics. The most exciting recent results in this subject concern the tree property and other reflection properties as successors of singular cardinals. The other mini course will be on the interactions between set theory and computability and/or model theory.
