TITLE
First order theory of homeomorphism groups of manifolds (Epilogue)
ABSTRACT
I will survey some basics of model theory, and discuss the first order rigidity of homeomorphism group of a compact manifold, in the context of it being a generalization of a classical result of Whittaker. The main result is joint with S. Kim and J. de la Nuez Gonzalez. I will discuss some of the details of the proof of the result.
