Logic, model theory, and formalization

Metin Ersin Arıcan

I am a second-year master's student in mathematics at Boğaziçi University, working on the model theory of fields under the supervision of Assoc. Prof. Ayhan Günaydın.

I am interested in the foundations of mathematics, especially model theory, mathematical logic, set theory, category theory, and the formalization of mathematics. This site is where I collect short writing, notes in progress, and updates related to that work.

For a fuller academic summary, see my CV. For shorter expository pieces and textbook solutions, visit the blog.
