Maximalist and Minimalist Perspectives on Infinity

In Of interest on October 21, 2011 at 5:16 pm

Going back in Seville to what I was studying before diagrams… set theory and infinity. Should we be maximalist or minimalist about our universe of sets?

Maximalist and Minimalist Perspectives on Infinity: A meeting on set theory and its philosophy

Speakers:Tatiana Arrigoni (Fondazione Bruno Kessler, Trento); Joan Bagaría (Universitat de Barcelona); Laura Crosilla (University of Leeds); Sy Friedman (Kurt Gödel Centre for Mathematical Logic, Vienna); Ignasi Jané (Universitat de Barcelona)

Thanks to José Ferreiros for organizing this. All infos (and soon a detailed program) here.

Going to New York City. To what seems to be a very nice conference, organized among others by Andrea whom I know personally from Barbara Tversky’s class I was following when I was in NYC last Fall. Lots of interesting people, and an opening reception and exhibition as well.
