THEMATIC PROGRAMS

ALGEBRAIC MODEL THEORY PROGRAM

Workshop on Model Theory of Analytic Functions

March 17-21, 1997

This workshop will concentrate on applications of model theory to real analytic geometry. There will be survey talks on the relevant areas of model theory and real analytic geometry, as well as talks on current developments. The topics covered will include: o-minimality, model theory and exponentiation, logarithmic-exponential series, subanalytic geometry, Pfaffian geometry, analogs in rigid analytic geometry and new o-minimal expansions of the reals. This workshop is part of the program on Algebraic Model Theory held during 1996-97 at The Fields Institute.
