This $184,844 award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program supports advanced mathematical research and training at Ohio University, an institution located in Appalachia. The project leverages funding from the NSF-BSF (U.S.-Israel Binational Science Foundation) program to develop an international research partnership between the principal investigator and a colleague at Ben-Gurion University in Israel. The research component will focus on PCF (possible cofinality) theory, an area of set theory developed by Shelah, with the goal of better understanding its implications for cardinal arithmetic and infinitary Ramsey theory. The project will also engage students in both countries in collaborative research through a pedagogical model pioneered during the COVID-19 pandemic. No sub-awards are planned under this grant, which runs from July 1, 2024 to June 30, 2027.
