• Make sense of formal expressions
• Rely on a picture to illustrate a concept, rationale, etc.
• Solve new problems
• Abstract and manipulate theories and use these to solve problems
• Adapt an argument to a similar situation
• Use knowledge from different fields to address issues
• Address literature and interact within other scientific fields
• Have sufficient knowledge of English in order to read and understand scientific texts, especially in the field of mathematics.

Learning Outcomes of UE

At the end of the instruction, the students will be able to understand the role of model theory in mathematics, and more generally of mathematical logic.

Content of UE

Reminder of the topics of the course of B2 (seminar of introduction to mathematical logic). Basic elements of model theory (languages,formulas, theories, complete theories, model-complete theories, quantifiers elimination),  models build by ultraproducts and their use in mathematics (for example to non standard model of real numbers). Completeness Theorem (without the proof), Compactness Theorem, Los Theorem, Constants'Method, Lowenhein-Skolem Theorem, applications (if possible) to types, algebraically closed and real closed fields...  

Prior Experience

Basic notions of mathematcial logic ( similar to the content of the seminar of introduction to mathematical logic) and of algebra, linear algebra and topology.
