“Survey talk on von-Neumann algebras”
We survey some of the fundamental theory of von-Neumann algebras and their traces, while providing everyday examples. We will then talk a bit about abelian von-Neumann algebras, and their relationship to measure theory. Time permitting, we will talk about types decomposition for von-Neumann algebras.

“Bases for ML-Randomness”
We briefly recall the definition of a base for ML-randomness presented last time. The remaining portion of the talk will be spent stating and proving an important result about such sets, namely that every base for ML-randomness is low for K.

“A result on constraint satisfaction problems: part 4”
I will finish presenting Bulatov’s proof that a standard (2,3)-system over the variety of 2-semilattices has a solution, and talk about how the set of solutions has some nice properties.
