Generalizing classical descriptive set theory opens foundational questions about the Borel hierarchy. In this paper we systematically study those questions, working in the general framework of Polish-like spaces relative to an uncountable…
Given two infinite cardinals $\kappa$ and $\lambda$, we introduce and study the notion of a $\kappa$-barely independent family over $\lambda.$ We provide some conditions under which these types of families exist. In particular, we relate…
We conjecture that every infinite group $G$ can be partitioned into countably many cells $G=\bigcup_{n\in\omega}A_n$ such that $cov(A_nA_n^{-1})=|G|$ for each $n\in\omega$. Here $cov(A)=\min\{|X|:X\subseteq G, G=XA\}$. We confirm this…
We prove that every Kaehler solvmanifold has a finite covering whose holomorphic reduction is a principal bundle. An example is given that illustrates the necessity, in general, of passing to a proper covering. We also answer a stronger…
We prove that for every compact K\"ahler manifold $X$ there exists an $L$-infinity morphism, lifting the usual cup product in cohomology, from the Kodaira-Spencer differential graded Lie algebra to the suspension of the space of linear…
Covering problems belong to the foundation of graph theory. There are several types of covering problems in graph theory such as covering the vertex set by stars (domination problem), covering the vertex set by cliques (clique covering…
Given a nowheredense closed subset $X$ of a metrizable compact space $\tx$, we characterize the dimension of $X$ in terms of the multiplicity of the canonicals covers of the complementary of $X$, specially in some particular cases, like…
We survey and explain some recent work at the intersection of model theory and bimeromorphic geometry (classification of compact complex manifolds). Included here are the essential saturation of the many sorted structure $\mathcal{C}$ of…
We construct uncountably many discrete groups of type $FP$; in particular we construct groups of type $FP$ that do not embed in any finitely presented group. We compute the ordinary, $\ell^2$- and compactly-supported cohomology of these…
Here we deal with some problems posed by Matet. The first section deals with the existence of stationary subsets of [lambda]^{<kappa} with no unbounded subsets which are not stationary, where, of course, kappa is regular uncountable less or…
Let $X$ be a set, $B_{X}$ denotes the family of all subsets of $X$ and $F: X \longrightarrow B_{X}$ be a set-valued mapping such that $x \in F(x)$, $sup_{x\in X} | F(x)|< \kappa$, $sup_{x\in X} | F^{-1}(x)|< \kappa$ for all $x\in X$ and…
In a classical paper by Ben-David and Magidor, a model of set theory was exhibited in which $\aleph_{\omega+1}$ carries a uniform ultrafilter that is $\theta$-indecomposable for every uncountable cardinal $\theta<\aleph_\omega$. In this…
We consider the covering of a ball in certain normed spaces by its congruent subsets and show that if the finite number of sets is not greater than the dimensionality of the space, then the centre of the ball either belongs to the interior…
It is known that the canonical double cover of any connected nonbipartite graph have an automorphism group of the form $H \rtimes \mathbb{Z}_2$, where $H$ is the set of automorphism which preserve bipartite parts. We construct connected…
We prove that every complete non-compact manifold of finite volume contains a (possibly non-compact) minimal hypersurface of finite volume. The main tool is the following result of independent interest: if a region $U$ can be swept out by a…
We prove several results giving lower bounds for the large cardinal strength of a failure of the singular cardinal hypothesis. The main result is the following theorem: Theorem: Suppose $\kappa$ is a singular strong limit cardinal and…
In this paper we develop analysis of the monopole maps over the universal covering space of a compact four manifold. We induce a property on local properness of the covering monopole map under the condition of closeness of the AHS complex.…
Given a finite covering by closed convex sets of $B_X$, the unit ball of an infinite-dimensional Banach space, we investigate whether there is a set of the covering that contains balls of radius close to $1$ and (a) arbitrarily high finite…
The multivariate covering lemma states that given a collection of $k$ codebooks, each of sufficiently large cardinality and independently generated according to one of the marginals of a joint distribution, one can always choose one…
Let kappa be an uncountable cardinal and the edges of a complete graph with kappa vertices be colored with aleph_0 colors. For kappa >2^{aleph_0} the Erd\H{o}s-Rado theorem implies that there is an infinite monochromatic subgraph. However,…
