Building on results of Medvedev, we construct a $\mathsf{ZFC}$ example of a non-Polish topological group that is countable dense homogeneous. Our example is a dense subgroup of $\mathbb{Z}^\omega$ of size $\mathfrak{b}$ that is a…
For an infinite cardinal $\kappa$ let $\ell_2(\kappa)$ be the linear hull of the standard othonormal base of the Hilbert space $\ell_2(\kappa)$ of density $\kappa$. We prove that a non-separable convex subset $X$ of density $\kappa$ in a…
For $\mu, \kappa$ infinite, say $\mathcal{A}\subseteq [\kappa]^\kappa$ is a $(\mu,\kappa)$-maximal independent family if whenever $\mathcal{A}_0$ and $\mathcal{A}_1$ are pairwise disjoint non-empty in $[\mathcal{A}]^{<\mu}$ then…
We study conditions on automorphisms of Boolean algebras of the form $P(\lambda)/I_\kappa$ (where $\lambda$ is an uncountable cardinal and $I_\kappa$ is the ideal of sets of cardinality less than $\kappa$) which allow one to conclude that a…
Let $E$ be a Banach space that does not contain any copy of $\ell^1$ and $\A$ be a non commutative $C^*$-algebra. We prove that every absolutely summing operator from $\A$ into $E^*$ is compact, thus answering a question of Pe\l czynski. As…
Given an uncountable regular cardinal $\kappa$, a partial order is $\kappa$-stationarily layered if the collection of regular suborders of $\mathbb{P}$ of cardinality less than $\kappa$ is stationary in $\mathcal{P}_\kappa(\mathbb{P})$. We…
We construct a model of the form $L[A,U]$ that exhibits the simplest structural behavior of $\sigma$-complete ultrafilters in a model of set theory with a single measurable cardinal $\kappa$ , yet satisfies $2^\kappa = \kappa^{++}$. This…
Working under large cardinal assumptions, we study the Borel-reducibility between equivalence relations modulo restrictions of the non-stationary ideal on some fixed cardinal $\kappa$. We show the consistency of…
If G is a locally essential subgroup of a compact abelian group K, then: (i) t(G)=w(G)=w(K), where t(G) is the tightness of G; (ii) if G is radial, then K must be metrizable; (iii) G contains a super-sequence S converging to 0 such that…
Assume G.C.H. and kappa is the first uncountable cardinal such that there is a kappa-free abelian group which is not a Whitehead (abelian) group. We prove that kappa is necessarily an inaccessible cardinal
We prove that if $X$ is a Polish space and $F$ is a face of $P(X)$ with the Baire property, then $F$ is either a meager or a co-meager subset of $P(X)$. As a consequence we show that for every abelian Polish group $X$ and every analytic…
Let H be a product of countably infinite number of copies of an uncountable Polish space X. Let $\Sigma_\xi$ $(\bar {\Sigma}_\xi)$ be the class of Borel sets of additive class \xi for the product of copies of the discrete topology on X (the…
This paper investigates the problem of extending measure theory to non-separable structures, from generalized descriptive set theory to a broader class of spaces beyond this framework. While various notions, such as the ideal of measure…
We prove that every point-finite family of nonempty functionally open sets in a topological space $X$ has the cardinality at most an infinite cardinal $\kappa$ if and only if $w(X)\leq\kappa$ for every Valdivia compact space $Y\subseteq…
Let G be an infinite discrete group and bG its Cech-Stone compactification. Using the well known fact that a free ultrafilter on an infinite set is nonmeasurable, we show that for each element p of the remainder bG G, left multiplication…
We prove that it is relatively consistent with ZFC that in any perfect Polish space, for every nonmeager set A there exists a nowhere dense Cantor set C such that A intersect C is nonmeager in C. We also examine variants of this result and…
We show that the consistency of $\mathrm{ZF} + \mathrm{AD}_{\mathbb{R}} + ``\Theta$ is measurable$"$ implies the consistency of $\mathrm{ZF} +``\Theta$ is the least strongly regular cardinal and the least measurable cardinal$"$ + $``$all…
Let $\kappa$ be an infinite regular cardinal. We define a topological space $X$ to be $T_{\kappa-Borel}$-space (resp. a $T_{\kappa-BP}$-space) if for every $x\in X$ the singleton $\{x\}$ belongs to the smallest $\kappa$-additive algebra of…
A Q-set is an uncountable set of reals all of whose subsets are relative $G_\delta$ sets. We prove that, for an arbitrary uncountable cardinal kappa, there is consistently a Q-set of size $\kappa$ whose square is not Q. This answers a…
Answering questions raised in \cite{Leonetti, Uzcategui} we characterize ideals $\mathcal I\subseteq \mathcal P(\omega)$ such that $c_{0,\mathcal I}$ is complemented in $\ell_\infty$ as exactly those ideals for which the space $K_{\mathcal…
