New Course on Algebro-Geometric Decision Methods at Cambridge

  • During Lent term, 2012, I'll be teaching a Part IV pure mathematics course called Decision Methods over Real and Algebraically Closed Fields at DPMMS, Cambridge. Please check this space for updates, and email me if there are things you would like me to cover outwith my current lecture roadmap. I hope you join!
