Abstract

The proposal requests for travel funds to support US participants, particularly graduate students and recent Ph.D.s, to attend the international workshop Model Theory 2013 that will be held June 10-15 in Ravello Italy. One of the objectives of this workshop will be bringing together researchers in Model Theory and other areas of mathematics where model theory has had significant applications. By presenting and discussion problems as well as recent advances in these areas we hope to facilitate further interactions. Another goal of the workshop is to provide an informal setting where graduate students and younger researchers from US can learn about new trends and interact with one another as well as with prominent senior mathematicians. There will be three tutorials on recent developments in Model Theory given by experts and aimed mostly at young researchers. The workshop is expecting participation from a large number of graduate student and recent Ph.D.s. Besides providing an opportunity for researchers to exchange ideas and discuss open problems, another equally important goal of the workshop is to foster interaction among graduate students and recent Ph.D by providing a setting contacts with junior and senior researchers are naturally and easily made.
