Title: Constructive Ordinal Arithmetic Abstract: Cantor's ordinal numbers can be described as an extension of the natural numbers: 0, 1, 2, ..., omega, omega+1, and so on. Although much larger than the natural numbers, they retain the property that any decreasing sequence is finite. This makes them...

HIMR-sponsored Algebra seminar - Colva Roney-Dougal
13:00 - 14:00 13 May 2025
Title: Asymptotic enumeration of permutation groups Abstract: One of the most elementary, but difficult, questions we can ask about a finite group G is how many subgroups it has. An elementary argument shows that the symmetric group on n points has at least 2^{n^2/16} subgroups. Pyber showed in 1993...
