DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/NYC-NCG/172/
 ">What is…model theory of operator algebras?</a>\nby Isaac Goldbring (Un
 iversity of California\, Irvine) as part of Noncommutative geometry in NYC
 \n\n\nAbstract\nModel theory is the area of logic that studies mathematica
 l structures through the lens of first-order logic\, examining what proper
 ties of a structure are expressible by first-order sentences and analyzing
  what subsets of the structure can be defined using first-order formulae. 
  In the last 15 years or so\, the model theory of operator algebras has be
 en a very active field with exciting interactions taking place between the
  model theoretic and operator algebraic communities.  In this talk\, I wil
 l survey some of the main themes being pursued in the model theory of trac
 ial von Neumann algebras.  No prior knowledge of logic or model theory wil
 l be assumed.\n
