Spaces of Orderings and Applications - Lecture 4

Explore the fourth lecture in a series on spaces of orderings and their applications, delivered by Andrés Navas as part of the "Groupes ordonnés/Orderable Groups" program. Delve into the fascinating world of orderable groups and their associated spaces of orders, which possess a natural topology rendering them compact regardless of the group's cardinality. Examine the general properties of these spaces and their connections to the algebraic characteristics of the underlying group. Engage with open questions in the field and gain insights into this intriguing area of mathematical research. This 49-minute talk, hosted by the Centre de recherches mathématiques (CRM), offers a deep dive into advanced concepts in group theory and topology.
