This HIM School is a week-long event directed at PhD students and recent Postdocs, which will take place within the framework of the Trimester Program "Advances in Mechanism Design".
The online application platform to participate in the school will be accessible shortly after the due date to apply for participation in the trimester program has expired.
PhD students and early-career researchers (up to four years past their PhD), who were invited and have confirmed to be at HIM during the period of this School, are automatically admitted to this event. Beyond this, researchers from the HCM, in particular, early-career researchers, are welcome upon request.
Everyone will be notified in due time about whether participation and partial financial support is possible. After being selected as participant, you will be invited to register.

Description: Definability has a far-reaching impact in mathematics, far beyond model theory. In this workshop, experts not only from definability, but in other areas of mathematics (number theory, computability theory, arithmetic geometry, etc.) will give an expository overview of the impact of definability in their fields, as well as the state of the current research in their fields. These talks are accessible to graduate students and experts from other fields, to facilitate the discussions that will follow during the trimester.
