„Transseries: algebra and model theory “
Prof. Lou van den Dries, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, USA

The field of Laurent series (over the reals, say) has a natural derivation but is too small to be closed under integration and other natural operations, such as taking logarithms of positive elements. This field has a natural extension to a field of generalized series, the differential field of transseries, where these defects are remedied in a radical way. I will give an outline of the construction of the field of transseries (or logarithmic-exponential series). Recently, it was established (work by Aschenbrenner, Van der Hoeven, and myself) that the differential field of transseries also has very good model-theoretic properties. I hope to discuss this in the second half of my talk.
