4pm Friday 17th December in Coombs Seminar room D.
We'll discuss two short pieces, one by Branden Fitelson and another by Branden Fitelson and Kenny Easwaran. The theme: some worries about `accuracy-based` arguments for probabilism. As an added bonus, Branden will join us!

Mathematics Reading Group - Session 7
Hi all,
The last session for the year will be Tuesday 14 December, 11 AM, Coombs Seminar Rm F.
The reading is Chapter 7, "Sequences & Series of Functions" from Rudin's Principles of Mathematical Analysis. Supplementary reading is Chapter 4, "Function Spaces" from Pugh's Real Mathematical Analysis. Electronic copies available upon request.
Plans are afoot to reconvene in February with a new topic - possibilities include linear algebra, measure theory & probability, point-set topology...
