2007 seminar talk: Geometric dependences in model theory

Talk held by Tapani Hyttinen (University of Helsinki) at the KGRC seminar on 2007-06-28.

Abstract

I call a dependence relation geometric if the dependences between any two sequences are determined by dependences between finite subsequences. In the talk I will give a short introduction to the theory of geometric dependences. A special attention is given to dependences in the context of abstract elementary classes and to examples.
