DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/WienGAGT/29/
 ">Model theory of the curve graph</a>\nby Thomas Koberda (Virginia) as par
 t of Vienna Geometry and Analysis on Groups Seminar\n\n\nAbstract\nIntrodu
 ctory talk: Automorphisms of the curve graph and related objects\n\nAbstra
 ct: I will give a brief introduction to Ivanov's result on the automorphis
 m group of the curve graph\, and survey some related results.\n\nResearch 
 talk: Model theory of the curve graph\n\nAbstract: I will describe some no
 vel approaches to investigating the combinatorial topology of surfaces thr
 ough model theoretic means. I will give a model theoretic explanation of h
 ow a myriad of objects that are naturally associated to a surface are inte
 rpretable inside of the curve graph\, and how this provides a new perspect
 ive on a certain metaconjecture due to Ivanov. I will also discuss some of
  the properties of the theory of the curve graph\, including stability and
  quantifier elimination. This talk represents joint work with V. Disarlo a
 nd J. de la Nuez Gonzalez.\n
