In this letter recent developments are shown in experimental and theoretical physics which brings into question the validity of General Relativity. This letter emphasizes the construction of a fractal 3+\phi^3 spacetime, in N-dimensions in…

In the Zermelo--Fraenkel set theory with the Axiom of Choice a forcing notion is "$\kappa$-distributive" if and only if it is "$\kappa$-sequential". We show that without the Axiom of Choice this equivalence fails, even if we include a weak…

In this paper, we study the near-boundary behavior of functions $u\in\mathcal{F}(\Omega)$ in the case where $\Omega$ is strictly pseudoconvex. We also introduce a sufficient condition for belonging to $\mathcal{F}$ in the case where…

We show that quantum theory allows for transformations of black boxes that cannot be realized by inserting the input black boxes within a circuit in a pre-defined causal order. The simplest example of such a transformation is the classical…

I investigate the relationships between three hierarchies of reflection principles for a forcing class $\Gamma$: the hierarchy of bounded forcing axioms, of $\Sigma^1_1$-absoluteness and of Aronszajn tree preservation principles. The latter…

Suppose that $T^*$ is an $\omega_1$-Aronszajn tree with no stationary antichain. We introduce a forcing axiom PFA($T^*$) for proper forcings which preserve these properties of $T^*$. We prove that PFA($T^*$) implies many of the strong…

Let $\Omega$ be a bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^{N+1}$ with a connected $C^{2,\epsilon}$ ($\epsilon\in(0,1)$) boundary. We show that, if the following overdetermined elliptic problem \begin{equation} -\Delta u=\alpha u\,\,…

We present a systematic study of the method of "norms on possibilities" of building forcing notions with keeping their properties under full control. This technique allows us to answer several open problems, but on our way to get the…

We propose a suitable substitute for the classical Grothendieck ring of an algebraically closed field, in which any quasi-projective scheme is represented, while maintaining its non-reduced structure. This yields a more subtle invariant,…

We construct non-unique weak solutions $\theta\in C_t^0C_x^{0-}$ for forced surface quasi-geostrophic (SQG) equation. This is achieved through a convex integration scheme adapted to the sum-difference system of two distinct solutions.…

We prove the following theorem: For a partially ordered set Q such that every countable subset has a strict upper bound, there is a forcing notion satisfying ccc such that, in the forcing model, there is a basis of the meager ideal of the…

We formulate several conditions (two of them are necessary and sufficient) which imply that a space of small character has large weight. In section 3 we construct a ZFC example of a first countable 0-dimensional space X of size 2^omega with…

In this article we adapt the existing account of class-forcing over a ZFC model to a model $(M,\mathcal{C})$ of Morse-Kelley class theory. We give a rigorous definition of class-forcing in such a model and show that the Definability Lemma…

This paper continues the investigation of the three square-bracket operations $[\cdot\cdot]$ from chapter 5 of \cite{Walks}. \ We say that a square-bracket operation $[\cdot\cdot]$ has the \emph{Ramsey club property} if for every club…

We prove a variety of theorems about stationary set reflection and concepts related to internal approachability. We prove that an implication of Fuchino-Usuba relating stationary reflection to a version of Strong Chang's Conjecture cannot…

In this paper, we study a general Syracuse problem. We give some necessary conditions concerning the existence of eventual non trivial cycles. Some properties based on linear logarithmic forms are established. New general conjectures are…

The topological reconstruction problem asks how much information about a topological space can be recovered from its point-complement subspaces. If the whole space can be recovered in this way, it is called reconstructible. Our main result…

Let $(A,\sigma)$ be a central simple algebra with an orthogonal involution. It is well-known that $O(A,\sigma)$ contains elements of reduced norm $-1$ if and only if the Brauer class of $A$ is trivial. We generalize this statement to…

We prove that no smooth symmetric convex body $\Omega$ with at least one point of non-vanishing Gaussian curvature can admit an orthogonal basis of exponentials. (The non-symmetric case was proven by Kolountzakis). This is further evidence…

In this paper, without the axiom of choice, we show that if a certain downward L\"owenheim-Skolem property holds then all grounds are uniformly definable. We also prove that the axiom of choice is forceable if and only if the universe is a…
