Barnabás Farkas

I am a senior postdoc (leader of the FWF project P29907) at the

Set Theory Research Group (head: Martin Goldstern) of the TU Wien


CV, email: barnabasfarkas@gmail.com

mailing address: DMG/Algebra, TU Wien, Wiedner Hauptstrasse 8-10/104, 1040 Wien, Austria


Research interest: set theory, in particular

  • structure of the real line and cardinal invariants of the continuum;
  • combinatorics of ideals on countable sets;
  • descriptive set theory and methods of forcing related to these topics.

In preparation:


• More on representations of ideals (with Piotr Borodulin--Nadzieja).

• Ways of destruction.
