A Brief Journey Though the Hyperbolic Plain
In the search of a non-Euclidean plain, the hyperbolic plain emerged. We will look at 2 models of Hyperbolic plains - H^2 and D^2. We will also discuss metrics on these two models and see what lines and circles look like in them.

Logic and Mathematics---from Cantor to Shelah
I discuss the role of logic in mathematics in the light of both
classical and recent advances in mathematical logic. The concepts and
methods of logic have helped us to understand, for example, why
Cantor's Continuum Hypothesis, and algorithmic solution of Diophantine
equations (Hilbert's 1st and 10th problems), are hard or impossible to
solve. On the other hand, the logical analysis of mathematical
structures has uncovered a rich general theory of classes of
structures with a so called complete first order axiomatization. The
most beautiful manifestation of this is S. Shelah's Classification
Theory, the most famous result of which can be summarized as follows:
Classes of structures with a complete first order axiomatization
always contain either maximally many structures, which are moreover
indistinguishable from each other, or rather few structures, all
easily distinguishable from each other.
