Choice vs. Determinacy
B1.01 
The Mathematics-Philosophy joint degree will be hosting a Special Seminar next week. All are welcome to atend.



Time: 17:00 Wednesday 13 March

Location: Mathematics Institute (Zeeman Building) B1.01

Speaker: Asaf Karagila (East Anglia)

Title: Choice vs. Determinacy, who do you want to win?

Abstract: The axiom of determinacy tells us that every game on the natural numbers is determined. It has very nice implications on the structure of the real line, but it also contradicts the axiom of choice.

In this expository talk we will discuss what are games, strategies, and how these are useful to prove all sort of things in mathematics. But also how the axiom of choice introduces chaos to our universe.
