Interpretation for the non-scientists: When faculty get NIH grants, the University gets some extra cash to make sure the research is supported. NIH just cut that $$ by a LOT. That means Unis are less likely to support research. Most research in the US is done at Unis, so... it's bad 🧪

Any textbook suggestions for a 1st-semester course in mathematical logic, covering (at least) completeness and compactness for first-order logic plus a little model theory?
Considering Enderton but want to see if there are better options. This is for a required course for 3rd-year math undergrads.

For the end of November, shortly before the eleventh month became the twelfth, I wrote a piece all about those two numbers.
Why does English have the words 'eleven' and 'twelve'? How do they relate to 'one' and 'two'?
And what does Lithuanian have to do with all this?

Reading time: 5 minutes November, at time of writing, is ticking out its final few hours, and with them, the eleventh month of 2024 is giving way to the twelfth. Aside from the awkward mismatch in …

A few days ago Lawrence Hollom posted a preprint that solves a problem about posets, informally known as the fishbone conjecture, which I am told was extremely central in the area. 🧵

A resolution of the Aharoni-Korman conjecture
A poset $P$ is said to satisfy the finite antichain condition, or FAC for short, if it has no infinite antichain. It was conjectured by Aharoni and Korman in 1992 that any FAC poset $P$ possesses a ch...

Happy to see my 3-year-old is really getting into Eurythmics. When "Beethoven" came on my playlist, she immediately got up and danced, and when "There Must Be an Angel (Playing with My Heart)" followed, she shouted, "This is my favorite!"

Bluesky academics, lets get to know each other! Quote this & tell me: 1) a project you are working on & 2) an odd idea/theory you aren’t working on but keep thinking about
1) understanding sets definable (in the logical sense) in ordered Abelian groups
2) Ehrhart polynomials
