Class Details

This course will introduce the main ideas and basic results of mathematical logic, and explain their applications to other areas of mathematics and computer science. We will begin with a study of first-order logic, covering structures and definability, theories, models and categoricity, as well as formal proofs. We will prove Gödel’s completeness and compactness theorems and the Lowenheim-Skolem theorems. The course will briefly dive into computability theory, enough to prove Gödel’s Incompleteness theorems and basic undecidability results.
