Stevo Todorcevic: A new partition theorem for trees and is applications

7 and 14 February 2014, 13:30–15:00 Fields institute, Room 210 Speaker:  Stevo Todorcevic Title:  A new partition theorem for trees and is applications Abstract: In a recent joint work with Antonio Aviles, in order to classify k-tuples of analytic hereditary families of subsequences of a fixed sequence of objects ( vectors, points in a topological space,etc), we needed to come up with a new Ramsey theorem for trees. continue reading…
