We consider the fragment F of first order arithmetic in which quantification is restricted to ''for all but finitely many.'' We show that the integers form an F-elementary substructure of the real numbers. Consequently, the F-theory of…

It is known that for $X$ a nowhere locally compact metric space, the set of bounded continuous, nowhere locally uniformly continuous real-valued functions on $X$ contains a dense $G_\delta$ set in the space $C_b(X)$ of all bounded…

Solecki proved that the group of automorphisms of a countable structure cannot be an uncountable free abelian group. See more in Just, Shelah and Thomas math.LO/0003120 where as a by product we can say something on on uncountable…

For any set $A$ of natural numbers with positive upper Banach density and any $k\geq 1$, we show the existence of an infinite set $B\subset{\mathbb N}$ and a shift $t\geq0$ such that $A-t$ contains all sums of $m$ distinct elements from $B$…

In what follows, essentially two things will be accomplished: Firstly, it will be proven that a version of the Arzel\`a--Ascoli theorem and the Fr\'echet--Kolmogorov theorem are equivalent to the axiom of countable choice for subsets of…

Although Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory (ZFC) is generally accepted as the appropriate foundation for modern mathematics, proof theorists have known for decades that virtually all mainstream mathematics can actually be formalized in much…

When a linear order has an order preserving surjection onto each of its suborders we say that it is strongly surjective. We prove that the set of countable strongly surjective linear orders is complete for the class of sets which are the…

The main goal of this note is to prove the following theorem. If $A_n$ is a sequence of measurable sets in a $\sigma$-finite measure space $(X, \mathcal{A}, \mu)$ that covers $\mu$-a.e. $x \in X$ infinitely many times, then there exists a…

We show that given a monadically stable theory $T$, a sufficiently saturated $\mathbf M \models T$, and a coherent system of probability measures on the $\sigma$-algebras generated by parameter-definable sets of $\mathbf M$ in each…

We study the notion of $\mathcal J$-MAD families where $\mathcal J$ is a Borel ideal on $\omega$. We show that if $\mathcal J$ is an arbitrary $F_\sigma$ ideal, or is any finite or countably iterated Fubini product of $F_\sigma$ ideals,…

The structures $\langle M,\subseteq^M\rangle$ arising as the inclusion relation of a countable model of sufficient set theory $\langle M,\in^M\rangle$, whether well-founded or not, are all isomorphic. These structures $\langle…

Let $A$ be any affine surjective endomorphism of a solenoid $\Sigma_{\mathcal{P}}$ over the circle $S^1$ which is not an infinite-order translation of $\Sigma_{\mathcal{P}}$. We prove the existence of a cylinder absolute winning (CAW)…

We prove the existence of infinite dense free sets (in the usual topology) for set mappings on the reals, under reasonable assumptions.

We combine several folklore observations to provide a working framework for iterating constructions which contradict the axiom of choice. We use this to define a model in which any kind of structural failure must fail with a proper class of…

Let $F(\sigma)$ be the random Dirichlet series $F(\sigma)=\sum_{p\in\mathcal{P}} \frac{X_p}{p^\sigma}$, where $\mathcal{P}$ is an increasing sequence of positive real numbers and $(X_p)_{p\in\mathcal{P}}$ is a sequence of i.i.d. random…

Let $G$ be an abelian group, and $F$ a downward directed family of subsets of $G$. The finest topology $\mathcal{T}$ on $G$ under which $F$ converges to $0$ has been described by I.Protasov and E.Zelenyuk. In particular, their description…

For a reductive group $G$ over a finite field $k$, and a smooth projective curve $X/k$, we give a motivic counting formula for the number of absolutely indecomposable $G$-bundles on $X$. We prove that the counting can be expressed via the…

A 2-covering for a finite group $G$ is a set of proper subgroups of $G$ such that every pair of elements of $G$ is contained in at least one subgroup in the set. The minimal number of subgroups needed to 2-cover a group $G$ is called the…

We show that countable increasing unions preserve a large family of well-studied covering properties, which are not necessarily sigma-additive. Using this, together with infinite-combinatorial methods and simple forcing theoretic methods,…

We show there exists a complete theory in a language of size continuum possessing a unique atomic model which is not constructible. We also show it is consistent with $ZFC + \aleph_1 < 2^{\aleph_0}$ that there is a complete theory in a…
