The ultraproduct construction gives a way of averaging an infinite sequence of mathematical structures, such as fields, graphs, or linear orders. The talk will be about the strength of such a construction, aiming to motivate and explain a theorem of Malliaris and Shelah which says that Keisler’s order, long thought to have finitely many classes (perhaps five or six), in fact has continuum many.
