Juris Steprans: Automorphisms of $P(\omega)/fin$
Place: Fields Institute (Room 210)
Date: November 25th, 2016 (13:30-15:00)
Speaker: Juris Steprans, York University
Title: Automorphisms of $P(\omega)/fin$
Abstract:
The question of whether all automorphisms of $P(\kappa)/fin$ are trivial has been settled in the following cases:
– For $\kappa =\omega$ by Rudin and Shelah
– For $\kappa$ between $\omega_2$ and the first inaccessible by work of Larson & McKenney and Shelah and me. continue reading…

Place: Fields Institute (Room 210)
Date: April 22nd , 2016 (13:30-15:00)
Speaker: Juris Steprans
Title: Graph embedding and the P-ideal dichotomy
Abstract: I will discuss a family of proofs of the consistency of a universal graph on $\omega_1$ with the failure of CH that rely on iterating reals and using the P-ideal dichotomy. continue reading…

Title: Non-trivial automorphisms of $P(\omega_1)/fin$
Abstract:
Just as in the case of automorphisms of $P(\omega)/fin$, an automorphism of $P(\omega_1)/fin$ will be called trivial if it is induced by a bijection between cofinite subsets of $\omega_1$. continue reading…
