US NSF grant open #nsf-2544999

Summary

This award a conference taking place at University of California, Irvine from February 9 to February 12, 2026. The title is: Set Theory: Larger Cardinals, Forcing and Higher Order Languages. The meeting is devoted to advances in finding a critical understanding the underlying assumptions and logic that mathematicians use.
