16-22 September 2019

Title of the course: Homogeneous structures and their automorphism groups
Instructor: Asst. Prof. Nick Ramsey
Institution: University of California Los Angeles
Dates: 16-22 September 2019
Prerequisites: None for the first week, either the first week or some exposure to logic for the second.
Level: Graduate, advanced undergraduate
Abstract: In the second week, we will build on this, showing how the combinatorial properties of a amalgamation class of finite structures can often be related to dynamical properties of their infinite limit, via results of Kechris-Rosendal and Kechris-Pestov-Todorcevic.
