Appalachian Set Theory 2006-2012 by James Cummings is an illustrated volume published by Cambridge University Press on November 15, 2012. This book takes its name from a series of intensive mathematics workshops held in Appalachia, where prominent set theorists delivered lectures aimed at helping non-experts grasp significant new directions and methods in set theory.
Readers will find contributions from workshop leaders and select student participants, reflecting the collaborative spirit of the meetings from 2006 to 2012. The chapters cover various topics, including forcing, large cardinals, and descriptive set theory, as well as the applications of set-theoretic concepts in group theory and analysis. This comprehensive collection serves as a resource for researchers and graduate students interested in advancing their understanding of mathematics, algebra, and logic.
Official synopsis Publisher
This volume takes its name from a popular series of intensive mathematics workshops hosted at institutions in Appalachia and surrounding areas. At these meetings, internationally prominent set theorists give one-day lectures that focus on important new directions, methods, tools and results so that non-experts can begin to master these and incorporate them into their own research. Each chapter in this volume was written by the workshop leaders in collaboration with select student participants, and together they represent most of the meetings from the period 2006-2012. Topics covered include forcing and large cardinals, descriptive set theory, and applications of set theoretic ideas in group theory and analysis, making this volume essential reading for a wide range of researchers and graduate students.
