Speaker: Agnes Szendrei Affiliation: CU Time: 4pm, Wednesday, October 5 Location: Math 350 Abstract: I will present results of Michael Pinsker on the possible sizes of intervals in the lattice of clones on an infinite set. Title: Clones on infinite sets. Speaker: Szendrei Affiliation: CU Time: 4pm, Wednesday, October 12 Location: Math 220 Abstract: A continuation of the previous talk. Title: Fubini's Theorem and the axiom of determinacy. Speaker: Dale Myers Affiliation: University of Hawaii Time: 4pm, Wednesday, October 26 Location: Math 220 Abstract: Title: An Introduction to IF Logic. Speaker: Allen Mann Affiliation: CU Time: 4pm, Wednesday, November 2 Location: Math 350 Abstract: In The Principles of Mathematics Revisited, (1996), Jaakko Hintikka argues that the received first-order logic is not the correct logic for the foundations of mathematics. He proposes independence-friendly (IF) logic as an alternative. In this talk, I will present IF logic and discuss some of its advantages and disadvantages. Title: An Introduction to IF Logic. Speaker: Allen Mann Affiliation: CU Time: 4pm, Wednesday, November 9 Location: Math 220 Abstract: A continuation of the previous talk. Title: An Introduction to IF Logic.
