bartek, you forgot to cc: to magda. IMHO using cosmo-media at adjani.astro.uni.torun.pl is easier

this is my general scheme of what I think the presentation could look like. please consider what else possibly could go in or out in the shedule, and who could say which part.

THE GENERAL POINTS TO CONSIDER (version more general)

1) the topology can be non-trivial independently of the curvature of the univ.

- general explanation what this is all about - "small universe" with topology - "big universe" without it (10 min)

2) what are the prospects for the topology to be ever detected (detectable) and approaches of doing that.

- how can topology be detected (2-d, 3-d etc...) (10 min)

- what are the limits of detection for selected approaches (CMBR (z=1000), quasars (z=3-6), gallaxies (z<1)) limits on a size of a fundamental domain (depending on a size of a the horizon which depends on W_tot) (10 min)

3) inflation as, by all means desired (why?), an mechanism of flattening the universe that makes many groups of topologies (in near flat spherical/hyperbolical models) undetectable

- why inflation is needed (from cosmological/particle physics point of view) (10 min)

- what are observational predictions of inflationary models (adiabacity, gaussianity, flatness, ..) (5 min)

- how changing curvature radius makes topologies undetectable (and what injec. radii are already ruled out). (5 min)

4) what is more needed - inflation or topology - to make the model fit to the observations.

sum: 50 min + 10 min in reserve
