Very Informal Gathering of Logicians; January 30 - February 1, 2009; Los Angeles, CA

摘要：主要研究者：Neeman，意大利提案编号：DMS - 0833743机构：加州大学洛杉矶分校逻辑学家非正式聚会加州大学洛杉矶分校逻辑学家非正式聚会（VIGs）几十年来一直是西海岸最重要的数理逻辑论坛之一。2009年VIG将强调内模型理论、描述集理论、可计算理论和数学哲学。它将纪念加州大学伯克利分校的约翰·斯蒂尔教授，他在这些领域做出了巨大贡献，并将继续这样做，在他60岁生日之际。会议将是逻辑学家了解和讨论重要研究进展、交流思想和就科学项目进行合作的重要机会。旅行补助将允许研究生和年轻研究人员来参加会议。大多数参与者将是从事研究的数学家和大学教师。他们在会上学到的东西将对他们的研究和教学产生积极的影响。

ABSTRACTPrincipal Investigator: Neeman, ItayProposal Number: DMS - 0833743 Institution: University of California-Los AngelesTitle: Very Informal Gathering of LogiciansThe Very Informal Gatherings of Logicians at UCLA (VIGs) have been among the most important forums for mathematical logic on the West Coast for several decades. The 2009 VIG will emphasize inner model theory, descriptive set theory, computability theory, and philosophy of mathematics. It will honor Professor John Steel of UC-Berkeley, who contributed greatly to these areas, and continues to do so, on the occasion of his sixtieth birthday. The conference will be a key opportunity for logicians to learn about and discuss important advances in research, to exchange ideas, and to collaborate on scientific projects. Travel grants will allow graduate students and young researchers to come to the conference. Most of the participants will be research mathematicians and university teachers. What they learn at the conference will have a positive impact on their research and teaching.
