I'm interested in model theory (a branch of logic), especially in the
classification theory of non elementary classes,
infinitary logics, extensions of first-order logic, combinatorial
set theory, and the
applications of these areas to algebra.

I am working on three volume model theory book series:
A course in Model Theory I: Introduction, 815 pages.
A course in Model Theory II: Classification Theory, 233 pages.
A course in Model Theory III: Classification Theory for Abstract
Elementary Classes, 205 pages.

Little before fall 1992 I started a
Mathematical Logic Seminar
and managed it until fall 2002. I am not responsible for that
seminar anymore, it is run now
in a different format than in the past by Ernest Schimmerling.
At present I am organizing a
Model Theory Seminar. The seminar meets on Mondays 5-6:30PM in WeH
7201. Information about current talks and talks given the last three years
can be found
here.

From the Pittsburgh Post Gazette,
A workshop dedicated to Classification Theory for Abstract Elementary
Classes was held at the American Institute of Mathematics
July 17 to July 21 2006.
