21-804 Seminar in Mathematical Logic
12 units

The purpose of the seminar is to offer a forum for discussion of recent developments in logic. We concentrate in the areas of Model Theory and Set Theory. We meet weekly for two hours where faculty and students present papers (typically not authored by local people) at the level which is be appropriate to that of participants. It is possible to take this seminar for credit. In order to get a grade you must present at least one paper (usually 2-4 lectures). However, some students participate passively (without giving a talk - not for credit). Every few weeks the topic changes, and often the subjects of discussion are not related.
