Today marks the end of teaching for Fall semester 2023. In my set theory course, I spent the day contextualizing some of the questions I put on their take-home final. One of the questions has them investigating Sierpinski's classic coloring of pairs of reals and showing that there are no uncountable homogeneous sets, and I spent class connecting this old result to modern (and ongoing) research in set theory.
Next spring, two of the students in the course will continue working with me, and I have an HTC student who will be doing a tutorial on basic axiomatic set theory as well. I've tried to create a space on this site
to showcase who they are and what they are doing.
