Elements of set theory II, spring 2010

Lecturer

Kaisa Kangas

Scope

5 cu.

Type

Advanced studies.

Content

Our aim is to go through topics in Enderton's book such as ordinal arithmetic, well-founded relations and models of set theory. We will also take a deeper look at cardinal arithmetic, and possibly go through some further topics if we have time. The contents of the course might be modified depending on the students' prerequisites.

Prerequisites

It would be good (but not necessary) to have some basic knowledge on ordinal numbers, cardinal numbers and transfinite recursion, such as the course Elements of Set Theory lectured in the autumn semester 2009.

Lectures

Weeks 11-18, Tuesday 16-18 room C124, Friday 12-14 room B321. Exception: Friday 7.5. 12-14 room C123.

Easter holiday 1.-7.4.

Exams

There will be a exam on May 18th at 12-16.
Remember to register for the exam! Please contact the lecturer if you want to take the exam at some other time.

Bibliography

H. Enderton: Elements of Set Theory

(We might also use some additional material that will be announced later.)
