| "But
yet
mathematical
certainty is, after all, something insufferable. Twice two makes four
seems
to me simply a piece of insolence. Twice two makes four is a pert coxcomb
who stands with arms akimbo barring your path and spitting. I admit that
twice two makes four is an excellent thing, but if we are to give
everything its due, twice two makes five is sometimes a very charming
thing too."
-Fyodor Dostoyevsky, "Notes from the Underground"

My name is Michael Lieberman, and I am a newly appointed
Lecturer here at the University of Pennsylvania, working in the area of
mathematical logic and foundations. Specifically, I'm interested in
abstract model theory and in category-theoretic approaches to the subject.
I was
born and mostly raised in Minnesota (save for a nearly yearlong sojourn in
Northeastern China), received my BA in math from Reed College, that
most liberal arts of all liberal arts schools, and completed my PhD at the
University of Michigan. Follow the links on the left for more.
