Overview
Reflection properties are one of the most important features of
large cardinals. It is
also very often the case that some kind of collapsing of large
cardinals endows small cardinals like $\color{white}\aleph_2$ with
very strong reflection properties. Reflection properties also
have may applications to topology and to the theory of infinite algebraic structures.
In this years RIMS workshop, we shall reexamine recent developements in set theory
in light of various reflection principles.
As is usually the case
in this series of annual RIMS workshops in set theory, besides this main theme of
the meeting, there will be also talks on topics in set theory which might not be
directly connected to this main theme, as well as talks
on some application of set theory in other fields of mathematics.
Guest Speakers
- James Cummings Mini Course on "Large Cardinals and Forcing"
- Stevo Todorčević Combinatorial Reflection Principles.
We expect many talks, in particular by junior participants, both from Japan and abroad.
Prospective participants should contact the organizer, Sakaé
Fuchino (see the email address below),
as early as possible.
