Dear colleague, We would like to inform you about the forthcoming CRM Intensive Research Program on Large Cardinals and Strong Logics, to be held from September 5 to December 16, 2016. continue reading…

## Sebastien Vasey: A proof of Shelah’s eventual categoricity conjecture in universal classes

Sebastien Vasey will discuss his solution to Shelah’s categoricity conjecture for universal AECs. Unlike previous approximations, this is without additional model theoretic or set-theoretic assumptions, the proof is entirely in ZFC. continue reading…

## Model Theory Seminar on Monday 11/3/2014 and 11/17/2014

Sebastien Vasey will continue talking on his infinitely long paper, delivering parts 4 and 5: ——————————————————— Model Theory Seminar Sebastien Vasey Carnegie Mellon Title: Infinitary stability theory, part IV Abstract: In 1990, Makkai and Shelah studied the class of models of an $L_{\kappa, \omega}$ sentence, where $\kappa$ is strongly compact. continue reading…
