SUMMARY:Theory of Field $\\mathbb{C} $ is Decidable
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Prabhat Kumar Jha\n\nAbstract: \nZoom Details:\nLink:

 g ID: 981 7222 2418\nPassword: studsem\nAbstract:  Many optimization pro
 blems reduce to finding truth value of quantified formulas over real or/an
 d complex numbers. In this talk we will cover a proof of decidability of t
 heories of real numbers and complex numbers due to Tarski. We will begin b
 y providing an algorithm to locate roots of multi-variable polynomials ove
 r these fields and then use quantifier elimination techniques to prove dec
 idability. If time permits\, we will discuss its applications to optimizat
 ion and verification problems.\nNote: There is no prerequisite from Mathem
 atical Logic or Computability theory.\n
