Title: Cohen-like poset for adding Fraisse limits
Abstract. There exist a natural forcing notion which turns given countable set into a Fraisse limit of a given Fraisse class. This long-known phenomenon provided a rough intuition that Fraisse limits, as "generic structures", have some connections with forcing. The goal of the talk is to look at some particular instances and possible applications of this idea.

Title: Simplicity of the automorphism groups of homogeneous structures
Abstract. We prove simplicity for the automorphism groups of order and tournament expansions of homogeneous structures like the bounded Urysohn space and the random graph. In particular, we will show that the automorphism group of the linearly ordered random graph is a simple group. The talk will be based on a preprint https://arxiv.org/pdf/1908.05249.pdf joint with Filippo Calderoni and Katrin Tent.

Title: Forcing with wider Silver
Abstract. We are going to establish basic properties of diagonal version of Silver forcing. Such forcing consists of partial functions \(p:\omega\rightarrow\omega\) with infinite codomain and \(p(n)<=n\) for each \(n\in dom(p)\). Cardinal characteristics of continuum will be calculated.
