Everybody is welcome to attend. Best wishes, Wieslaw ======================================================= SPEAKER: Andr?s Aranda (Charles University) TITLE: A uniform approach to Fra?ss? theorems for homomorphism-homogeneous structures ABSTRACT: A relational structure M is ultrahomogeneous if every partial isomorphism with finite domain is restriction of an automorphism of M. Fra?ss?'s theorem establishes a correspondence between ultrahomogeneous structures and classes of finite structures that satisfy the Amalgamation Property (and a few more necessary conditions). In 2002, Cameron and Ne?et?il introduced the notion of homomorphism-homogeneity, where homomorphisms with finite domain are restrictions of endomorphisms of M. A few years later, Lockett and Truss introduced distinctions depending on the type of finite-domain homomorphism and the type of endomorphism extending it, resulting in 18 "classical" classes of homomorphism-homogeneous structures. In 2017, Coleman proved Fra?ss? theorems for 12 of the 18 notions of homogeneity introduced by Lockett and Truss. The problem of finding amalgamation properties and Fra?ss? theorems for the remaining six classes was left open. Through the example of IB-homogeneity, I will present a method that is general enough to identify the amalgamation properties and uniqueness conditions for each of the 18 classical homogeneity notions. =======================================================
