By a virtual model, we mean a model of set theory which is elementary in its transitive closure. Virtual models are first used by Neeman \cite{neeman2014forcing} to iterate forcing. That paper is concerned with proper forcing. The method…
We show that many countable support iterations of proper forcings preserve Souslin trees. We establish sufficient conditions in terms of games and we draw connections to other preservation properties. We present a proof of preservation…
We provide elementary algorithms for two preservation theorems for first-order sentences (FO) on the class \^ad of all finite structures of degree at most d: For each FO-sentence that is preserved under extensions (homomorphisms) on \^ad, a…
We deal with an iteration theorem of forcing notion with a kind of countable support of nice enough forcing notion which is proper aleph_2-c.c. forcing notions. We then look at some special cases (Q_D 's preceded by random forcing).
We show that Shelah cardinals are preserved under the canonical $GCH$ forcing notion. We also show that if $GCH$ holds and $F:REG\rightarrow CARD$ is an Easton function which satisfies some weak properties, then there exists a cofinality…
In the paper the role of conservation laws in evolutionary processes, which proceed in material systems (in material media) and lead to generation of physical fields, is shown using skew-symmetric differential forms. In present paper the…
This is a survey paper of Shelah's pcf theory. In this part the theory is developed up to the pcf theorem.
In this paper we review Shelah's strong covering property and its applications. We also extend some of the results of Shelah and Woodin on the failure of $CH$ by adding a real.
We study the spectrum of forcing notions between the iterations of $\sigma$-closed followed by ccc forcings and the proper forcings. This includes the hierarchy of $\alpha$-proper forcings for indecomposable countable ordinals as well as…
We present preservation theorems for countable support iteration of nep forcing notions satisfying ``old reals are not Lebesgue null'' and ``old reals are not meager''. (Nep is a generalization of Suslin proper.) We also give some results…
We introduce several properties of forcing notions which imply that their lambda-support iterations are lambda-proper. Our methods and techniques refine those studied in math.LO/9906024, math.LO/0210205, math.LO/0508272 and math.LO/0605067,…
This article is devoted to the interplay between forcing with fusion and combinatorial covering properties. We discuss known instances of this interplay as well as present a new one, namely that in the Laver model for the consistency of the…
This dissertation surveys several topics in the general areas of iterated forcing, infinite combinatorics and set theory of the reals. There are two parts. In the first half I consider alternative versions of the Cicho\'n diagram. First I…
We discuss the (first) Sylow theorem for certain classes of finite skew braces, proving it to hold true when the skew brace is two-sided, bi-skew, right nilpotent, $\lambda$-homomorphic or supersoluble. We also show it to hold true for…
We prove that any countable support iteration formed with posets with $\omega_2$-p.i.c.\ has $\omega_2$-c.c., assuming CH in the ground model and assuming also that $\omega_1$ is not collapsed. This improves earlier results of Shelah by…
We investigate conservation laws of diffusion-convection equations to construct first-order potential systems corresponding to these equations. We do two iterations of the construction procedure, looking, in the second step, for the…
We show how to force, with finite conditions, the forcing axiom PFA(T), a relativization of PFA to proper forcing notions preserving a given Souslin tree T. The proof uses a Neeman style iteration with generalized side conditions consisting…
We will read, through the Emmy Noether paper and the two concepts of `proper' and `improper' conservation laws, the problem, posed by Hilbert, of the nature of the law of conservation of energy in the theory of General Relativity.…
We prove two general results about the preservation of extendible and $C^{(n)}$-extendible cardinals under a wide class of forcing iterations (Theorems 5.4 and 7.5). As applications we give new proofs of the preservation of Vop\v{e}nka's…
In this work, various versions of the so-called Omega-Lemma are provided, which ensure differentiability properties of pushforwrds between spaces of C^r-sections (or compactly supported C^r-sections) in vector bundles over…
