Slawomir Solecki: The dynamics and structure of transformation groups

This is a 24-lecture course, with each lecture being 75 minutes, given by Slawomir Solecki. Note that the 2nd lecture was not recorded. The other lectures might still be of significant interest, but this needs to be known.

This course focuses on the interaction between set theory, geometry, group theory, and dynamics. It will present parts of Rosendal’s Coarse Geometry of Topological Groups, Kechris-Pestov-Todorcevic’s Fraïssé Limits, Ramsey Theory, and Topological Dynamics of Automorphism Groups, as well as theory of Borel and measurable combinatorics.

Spencer Unger and Assaf Rinot: Set theory, algebra and analysis

This is a 23-lecture course, with each lecture being 75 minutes, given by Spencer Unger and Assaf Rinot.

This course will present a rigorous study of advanced set-theoretic methods including forcing, large cardinals, and methods of infinite combinatorics and Ramsey theory. An emphasis will be placed on their applications in algebra, topology, and real and functional analysis.
