Set Theory in the United Kingdom 15

University College London
Thursday 20 February 2025

Set Theory in the United Kingdom is a research network in set theory that was formed in 2018 and has been funded by two Scheme 3 grants of the London Mathematical Society and an INI Network Support grant by the Isaac Newton Institute for Mathematical Sciences.

The members of the network are the Universities of Bristol, Cambridge, East Anglia, Leeds, Oxford, Warwick and University College London. The current coordinators are Sam Coskey (UCL), Asaf Karagila (Leeds), and Benedikt Löwe (Cambridge).

STUK 15 is the fifteenth installment of the series and will take place in Maths Room 706 at the Mathematics Department of University College London (25 Gordon Street; directions). The Mathematics Department is is a five minute walk from Euston Station and a 15 minute walk from King's Cross-St Pancras, situated on the corner of Gordon Street and Gower Place above the Students' Union. To get to the Department you should go through the main entrance to the Students' Union at 25 Gordon Street. Turn right along the reception counter and then turn left, going through three sets of swing doors until you reach the second set of lifts—the Mathematics Department lifts. Take a lift to the seventh floor, turn right and go through two sets of doors, and Room 706 is to the left.
