HSTW 2020: Hamburg Set Theory Workshop 2020 Descriptive Set Theory, Forcing and the Reals Zoom webinar/meeting 20 & 21 June 2020 https://www.math.uni-hamburg.de/spag/ml/HSTW2020/ UPDATE: Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the HSTW 2020 will be held online as a Zoom webinar with several zoom meetings as substitute for social events, like cofeebreaks/lunch. Further information about the conference format can be found on the conference homepage. == Speakers: 1. Vera Fischer (Vienna) 2. Yurii Khomskii (Hamburg & Amsterdam) 3. Dominique Lecomte (Paris) 4. Heike Mildenberger (Freiburg) 5. Dorottya Sziraki (Budapest) 6. Wolfgang Wohofsky (Vienna) 7. Jindrich Zapletal (Gainesville FL) 8. Zoltan Vydnyanszky (Vienna) == Topic: Descriptive set theory discusses the relationship between logical complexity and good behaviour of sets, so-called regularity properties (e.g. Lebesgue measurability, perfect set property, etc.). It is well known that these properties are closely connected to forcing (and in some cases, large cardinals). Modern developments in set theory such as forcing, large cardinals and determinacy give powerful techniques to tackle problems in descriptive set theory. In recent years, set theorists have generalised classical results of descriptive set theory to generalised reals. == Registration: Please register via an email to <HSTW2020@math.hamburg>.
