Month: June 2008
Date: June 1--7
Name: ULTRAMATH 2008 Applications of Ultrafilters and Ultraproducts in Mathematics
Location: Pisa, Italy.
Description
The international Congress ULTRAMATH aims to present recent results in the whole spectrum of mathematics which are grounded on the use of ultrafilters and ultraproducts. Its main goals: Disseminate information about the various techniques related to the use of ultrafilters and ultraproducts, and their potential to attack open problems. Bring together researchers with different backgrounds, and encourage their collaborations and interactions, especially on topics connecting different areas of mathematics.
Topics
The covered topics include (but are not limited to): Additive/combinatorial number theory; combinatorics, Ramsey theory, ergodic theory; algebra; geometry; general topology; measure theory; metric spaces; functional analysis; nonstandard methods; set theory and foundations.
