Alf Onshuus (Universidad de Los Andes) - O-minmality and connections to algebra

Note the non-standard time! 

In the first part of the talk, I will give an introductory talk to o-minimality, giving the definitions and some of intuition through understanding which Lie groups are amenable to being understood in o-minimal contexts. 

In the second part I will state the two theorems which have had the most important applications to algebra and give some intuition of how (at least one of them) has been used.
