Abstract: We prove that two compact connected manifolds are homeomorphic only if their homeomorphism groups are elementarily equivalent, i.e. have exactly the same set of the true first-order group-theoretic sentences . This is a work in progress. (Joint with Thomas Koberda and Javier de la Nuez--Gonzalez)
