Abstract
The notion of relational complexity originated in model theory, and is a measure of the extent to which local information about the action of a finite permutation group determines each element: unsurprisingly there is a connection with base size. This talk will start with some basic definitions and examples, and then present some new bounds on the relational complexity of various families of permutation groups. This is work in progress with Saul Freedman and Veronica Kelsey.
Series This talk is part of the Isaac Newton Institute Seminar Series series.
