Euro-Conference in Model Theory and Applications Ravello, May 27 - June 1, 2002 A conference in Model Theory and Applications will take place in Ravello (Italy). Ravello is a small town, located 60 km south of Naples (30 km west of Salerno). Arrival day is May 26, departure day June 2 . There will be six days of lectures (including a free afternoon), starting in the morning of May 27, and ending in late afternoon of June 1. The programme consists of three tutorials of three hour each, thirteen plenary lectures, a special session, a poster session and a problem session. The topic of the conference is on the recent developments in the applications of model theory to algebra and analysis. The talks will be varied in nature, ranging from survey talks to talks presenting more specialised material. All speakers were however instructed to aim a good part of their talk at a non-specialised audience, so that even young researchers can get a good overview of what is going on in this particular area of mathematics. The idea of organising such a conference came upon the Committee as a way of celebrating Angus Macintyre's 60th birthday, as he has been a leading influence in our mathematical life, and a banquet will be organised in his honour on Friday May 31st (cost per person: 45 Euros).

var wgNotice = ""; var wgNoticeLocal = ""; var wgNoticeLang = "en"; var wgNoticeProject = "wikipedia"; Model theory From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search This article discusses model theory as a mathematical discipline and not the term mathematical model which is used informally in other parts of mathematics and science. In mathematics model theory is the study of (classes of) mathematical structures such as groups fields graphs or even models of set theory using tools from mathematical logic . Model theory has close ties to algebra and universal algebra This article focuses on finitary first order model theory of infinite structures. The model theoretic study of finite structures (for which see finite model theory ) diverges significantly from the study of infinite structures both in terms of the problems studied and the techniques used. Model theory in higher-order logics or infinitary logics is hampered by the fact that completeness does not in general hold for these logics. However, a great deal of study has also been done in such languages. Contents The role of model theory The areas of model theory Universal algebra Finite model theory ...

Please Read How You Can Help Keep the Encyclopedia Free Model Theory First published Sat Nov 10, 2001; substantive revision Tue Jul 12, 2005 Model theory began with the study of formal languages and their interpretations, and of the kinds of classification that a particular formal language can make. Mainstream model theory is now a sophisticated branch of mathematics (see the entry on first-order model theory ). But in a broader sense, model theory is the study of the interpretation of any language, formal or natural, by means of set-theoretic structures, with Alfred Tarski's truth definition as a paradigm. In this broader sense, model theory meets philosophy at several points, for example in the theory of logical consequence and in the semantics of natural languages. 1. Basic notions of model theory 2.

Basic notions of model theory Sometimes we write or speak a sentence S that expresses nothing either true or false, because some crucial information is missing about what the words mean.

In practice, DM searches for a satisfying compromise among several conflicting objectives. The Goal Programming (GP) model is based on a satisfaction philosophy filled with ambiguity that differs considerably from the optimization principle behind mathematical programming which is based on crisp and well defined environment. Available in many versions, GP is the best known model of Multi-Objective Programming. Supported by a network of researchers and practitioners, GP is alive today more than ever, and is continually fed with theoretical developments and new applications with resounding success.

Abstract We have derived a surface area based version of the generalized Born model (S-GB) as a well defined approximation to the boundary element formulation of the Poisson-Boltzmann (PB) equation. The relationship of the surface area methodology to the volume-integration based approach of Still and coworkers is elucidated. Based upon insights obtained from these results, we then develop empirical correction schemes which yield significant improvements in accuracy as compared to the uncorrected GB model, in reproducing accurate solutions of the Poisson-Boltzmann equation. A large suite of energetic comparisons of GB, corrected S-GB, and PB for multiple conformations of peptides and proteins are presented. In addition, a cavity model which is a simple extension of a surface area model and similar in vein to the two surface model of Truhlar is used to incorporate the non-polar contribution into the total solvation free energy. This model is quite successful in predicting some of the more problematic aspects of simple continuum models including that of non-additive effects due to hydrogen bonding.

Atlas home Conferences Abstracts about Atlas Interactions between model theory and geometry March 13-18, 2004 Banff, AB, Canada Mathematics Host: Banff International Research Station Homepage: http://www.pims.math.ca/birs/workshops/2004/04w5534/ Description: In the past decade, model theory has reached a new maturity, strengthening of its connections with other areas of mathematics and producing striking applications to diophantine geometry, analytic geometry and Lie theory, as well as strong interactions with group theory, representation theory of finite-dimensional algebras, and the study of the $p$-adics. In the proposed BIRS workshop, we want to focus on these applications, while maintaining input from the pure model theorists whose new work is relevant to the applications. For the BIRS conference, we wish to repeat the excitement of the MSRI workshop, once again bringing together researchers from different fields who are creating new developments in the exciting interface of the relevant areas. It is particularly important to allow time for research collaborations as well as for expositions of new results. As such, we propose three talks in the mornings, an afternoon free for interaction and collaboration, and one or two more talks in the early evening. The problem session of the ICMS meeting was enormously successful, in large measure due to the variety of perspectives present. We would expect to replicate this success at BIRS.

26. PITP The 2006 Program Applications of String theory - covered recent The PiTP 2007 Program - The Standard model and Beyond - was held July 16-27, http://www.ias.edu/pitp

"Strings and Phenomenology" July 14 - July 25, 2008 2008 Program Prospects in Theoretical Physics 2008 (PiTP 2008) is designed for string theorists who want to learn about issues of compactification relevant to phenomenology and cosmology, and for phenomenologists who want to learn about strings and their applications to phenomenology. The topics in strings and phenomenology will be chosen so as to make the maximum contact between the two fields, and the lecture series will be as self-contained as possible. All participants will need to be very familiar with QFT and the Standard Model, and have some background in string theory. To assist the students in preparing for the school, a list of reading materials will be made available on this website several weeks before the start of the program. PiTP 2008 will be organized more like a workshop than a school, and active student participation will be expected. The format will consist of two 90-minute lectures in the morning and two homework/discussion sessions in the afternoon. PiTP 2008 has been scheduled to precede the International Conference on High Energy Physics ( ICHEP 2008 ), which will take place in Philadelphia July 29 - August 5, 2008. Graduate students and postdoctoral fellows who will be attending ICHEP 2008 are encouraged to apply to PiTP 2008. Participants who are registered for ICHEP 2008 will be allowed to remain in the Institute for Advanced Study's apartments until Tuesday, July 29, 2008, instead of being required to vacate the apartments at the end of the PiTP 2008 program (which will be on Friday, July 25, 2008).

Before their breakthrough, there were no asset pricing models built from first principles about the nature of tastes and investment opportunities and with clear testable predictions about risk and return. Four decades later, the CAPM is still widely used in applications, such as estimating the cost of equity capital for firms and evaluating the performance of managed portfolios. And it is the centerpiece, indeed often the only asset pricing model taught in MBA level investment courses.

Model Theory of Metric Structures September 18 to September 22, 2006 at the American Institute of Mathematics , Palo Alto, California organized by C. Ward Henson and Itay Ben-Yaacov This workshop, sponsored by AIM and the NSF , will focus on the use of model theoretic ideas in analysis and metric geometry, bringing together model theorists and specialists from a few key application areas for a period of intense discussions. A diverse combination of backgrounds will allow the participants to explore from new angles certain examples, applications, and theoretical problems that define the frontier of research on the model theory of metric structures. A major goal of this workshop is to overcome communication barriers between model theorists and analysts. We will use continuous logic as a common ground for collaboration. This recently developed logic combines familiar semantic constructs from analysis with the syntactic framework of first order logic. A new phenomenon, which does not exist in ordinary model theory, is that metric structures can be naturally perturbed. Experience shows that restating questions "up to perturbation" may be essential for a smooth general theory to be developed.

Please note that laptops are required for the afternoon lab sessions. Overview Discrete choice models are widely used for the analysis of individual choice behavior. Recent applications to predict changes in demand and market shares include areas such as: choice of travel mode, coffee brand, telephone service, soft drinks and other foods, and choice of durables such as automobiles, air conditioners and houses. Discrete (or qualitative) choice analysis was initially developed by researchers in psychology, but has been extended to apply to choice problems in many fields. It is used in marketing research to guide product positioning, pricing, product concept testing, and many other areas of strategic and tactical interest. This one-week program undertakes an in-depth study of discrete choice models and their applications. It provides participants with the practical tools necessary for applying new discrete choice techniques. By examining actual case studies of discrete choice methods, students will be familiarized with problems of data collection, model formulation, testing, and forecasting, and will gain hands-on application experience by applying freely available software to estimate and test discrete choice models from real databases.

Encyclopaedia of Mathematics M Article referred from Article refers to Model theory The part of mathematical logic studying mathematical models (cf. Model (in logic) The origins of model theory go back to the 's and 's, when the following two fundamental theorems were proved. Theorem 1 of propositions in a first-order language is consistent, then the whole collection is consistent (see Theorem 2 ). If a collection of propositions in a first-order language of signature has an infinite model, then it has a model of any infinite cardinality not less than the cardinality of Theorem 1 has had extensive application in algebra. On the basis of this theorem, A.I. Mal'tsev created a method of proof of local theorems in algebra (see Mal'tsev local theorems Let be an algebraic system of signature , let be the underlying set of , let , let denote the signature obtained from by the addition of symbols for distinguished elements for all , and let denote the algebraic system of signature which is an enrichment of in which for each the symbol is interpreted by the element .

Search Subject Index MathMap Tour ... Help! ABOUT: Introduction History Related areas Subfields POINTERS: Texts Software Web links Selected topics here 03: Mathematical logic and foundations Introduction Mathematical Logic is the study of the processes used in mathematical deduction. The subject has origins in philosophy, and indeed it is only by nonmathematical argument that one can show the usual rules for inference and deduction (law of excluded middle; cut rule; etc.) are valid. It is also a legacy from philosophy that we can distinguish semantic reasoning ("what is true?") from syntactic reasoning ("what can be shown?"). The first leads to Model Theory, the second, to Proof Theory. Students encounter elementary (sentential) logic early in their mathematical training. This includes techniques using truth tables, symbolic logic with only "and", "or", and "not" in the language, and various equivalences among methods of proof (e.g. proof by contradiction is a proof of the contrapositive). This material includes somewhat deeper results such as the existence of disjunctive normal forms for statements. Also fairly straightforward is elementary first-order logic, which adds quantifiers ("for all" and "there exists") to the language. The corresponding normal form is prenex normal form. In second-order logic, the quantifiers are allowed to apply to relations and functions to subsets as well as elements of a set. (For example, the well-ordering axiom of the integers is a second-order statement). So how can we characterize the set of theorems for the theory? The theorems are defined in a purely procedural way, yet they should be related to those statements which are (semantically) "true", that is, statements which are valid in every model of those axioms. With a suitable (and reasonably natural) set of rules of inference, the two notions coincide for any theory in first-order logic: the Soundness Theorem assures that what is provable is true, and the Completeness Theorem assures that what is true is provable. It follows that the set of true first-order statements is effectively enumerable, and decidable: one can deduce in a finite number of steps whether or not such a statement follows from the axioms. So, for example, one could make a countable list of all statements which are true for all groups.

50. NONLINEAR DIFFERENCE EQUATIONS: theory WITH Applications TO SOCIAL SCIENCE MODELS. A monograph by Hassan Sedaghat, Mathematics Professor Virginia Commonwealth University, Richmond, http://mywebpages.comcast.net/dedds/NDEbook.html

NONLINEAR DIFFERENCE EQUATIONS: THEORY WITH APPLICATIONS TO SOCIAL SCIENCE MODELS A monograph by Hassan Sedaghat Mathematics Professor Virginia Commonwealth University, Richmond, Virginia, USA This book provides mathematical treatments of models from various social science disciplines. It also contains a detailed exposition of some the latest theory behind the mathematical analysis. Many theoretical results are new and some are presented for the first time in this book. These results, accompanied by various older and better known results that are also presented in detail, help create a comprehensive theoretical framework for the study of nonlinear models in discrete time (many of which have no continuous-time analogs in terms of differential equations). Each section in every chapter ends in a Notes segment which gives additional or related information about the material covered in that section plus some history and complete references. In addition to technical results, the book contains more than 80 diagrams, lots of examples and counter-examples for motivation and clarification, an extensive bibliography and a detailed index. The book has material of interest to mathematicians and theortical researchers in social sciences and graduate students in applied mathematics as well as graduate students working on mathematical social science models. Excerpts from reviews by experts in the field: The Mathematical Reviews: "The level of rigor is substantial ... especially the first part where theorems are stated formally and proofs are given for nearly all of them... [The] final two chapters provide a rich collection of interesting applications from the social sciences, especially economics...These chapters constitute a valuable resource of important applications of discrete dynamical systems

N. H, BOUMERDES , 35000 Algeria ABSTRACT This paper is concerned with the equations of motion for the dispersed bubbly flows. The equations are analysed by taking into account the aspects of the relative motion of the bubbles. It is found that the characteristics are real. By analyzing the sound velocity in liquids containing bubbles it appears that two applications can be considered. One concerns critical flow through a convergent-divergent Laval nozzle, where the results establish a relation between the phase velocities, the void fraction and the sound velocity in the mixture. This relation agrees very well with experimental data and with other authors models. Another application concerns the cavitation phenomena in which the classical analysis of transient homogeneous-flow models are fully verified. download article Affiliate of Begell House Designed by Offisteteam Corp.
