课程介绍

Some model theory of nonabelian free groups

Rizos Sklinos

In 1946 Tarski asked whether nonabelian free groups share the same first-order theory. Despite the fact that free groups were a well studied class of groups and techniques from different disciplines of mathematics have been developed to understand them, Tarski’s question proved very hard to tackle. It was only after more than fifty years, in 2001, that Sela and Kharlampovich-Myasnikov answered the question in the positive. Both works were voluminous and still to this day have not been fully absorbed by the mathematical community. It is worth mentioning that the tools developed allowed Sela to understand, model theoretically, also the class of torsion-free hyperbolic groups.


Surprisingly this common first-order theory has been proved, by Sela, to be stable. This is considered by many one of the most profound result in the model theory of groups.


In this mini-course we will explore what is model theoretically known about nonabelian free groups and more generally torsion-free hyperbolic groups. We will first give a mild introduction to both hyperbolic groups and stability theory and then develop all the adequate tools to explore this demanding topic that lies in the intersection of model theory with geometric group theory.


More precisely, we plan to show that the first-order theory of non abelian free groups is connected, unsuperstable and non-equational. It is not AE axiomatizable and only has QE down to boolean combinations of AE formulas. In addition, it does not have elimination of imaginaries, but one can add some easily understood families over which it has. Moreover, we will show that free groups are homogeneous, yet most surface groups are not. Using homogeneity we will understand forking independence in these standard models through JSJ decompositions (a tool of geometric group theory) and prove that this theory is ample. Finally we will show that no infinite field is interpretable in nonabelian free groups. The above list of results is not exhaustive, but mostly indicative of the topics we will touch on.


Nonstandard Analysis and Combinatorial Number Theory

金人麟 Jin Renling

The course is for the students with some knowledge on mathematical logic such as having had one-semester undergraduate level course on mathematical logic. In the first two days, we will cover basic ideas, concepts, properties, principles, etc. in nonstandard analysis. In the last two days, we will focus on applications of nonstandard methods to the problems in combinatorial number theory.


Program:


Day 1: First-order logic and ultrapower of superstructure

Day 2: Properties, principles, Loeb spaces and an application to finance

Day 3: Break

Day 4: Easy applications to combinatorial number theory

Day 5: Sophisticated applications to combinatorial number theory
