Title: Ultrahomogeneous tensor spaces – after Harman and Snowden

Abstract: I will discuss aspects of `Ultrahomogeneous tensor spaces’ (Advances, 2024) by Nate Harman and Andrew Snowden --- part of a major body of work by them connecting model theory (specifically, omega-categoricity and variants) with tensor categories. This particular paper constructs generic systems of multilinear forms on a countably-infinite dimensional vector space, satisfying appropriate notions of omega-categoricity and homogeneity. The talk is purely expository.
