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
