We present the classical theory of preservation of $\sqsubset$-unbounded families in generic extensions by ccc posets, where $\sqsubset$ is a definable relation of certain type on spaces of real numbers, typically associated with some…
Let $X=(X_1,X_2,\ldots)$ be a sequence of random variables with values in a standard space $(S,\mathcal{B})$. Suppose \begin{gather*} X_1\sim\nu\quad\text{and}\quad P\bigl(X_{n+1}\in\cdot\mid…
We show that it is equiconsistent with $\mathsf{ZF}$ that Fodor's lemma fails everywhere, and furthermore that the club filter on every regular cardinal is not even $\sigma$-complete. Moreover, these failures can be controlled in a very…
Szemeredi's regularity lemma is one instance in a family of regularity lemmas, replacing the definition of density of a graph by a more general coefficient. Recently, Fan Chung proved another instance, a regularity lemma for clustering…
We prove a fixed point theorem for the action of certain local monodromy groups on \'etale covers and use it to deduce lower bounds in essential dimension. In particular, we give more geometric proofs of many (but not all) of the results of…
The Ghahramani-Lau conjecture is established; in other words, the measure algebra of every locally compact group is strongly Arens irregular. To this end, we introduce and study certain new classes of measures (called approximately…
We construct some new cohomology theories for topological groups and Lie groups and study some of its basic properties. For example, we introduce a cohomology theory based on measurable cochains which are continuous in a neighbourhood of…
We prove: Main Theorem: Let $\mathcal{K}$ be an abstract elementary class satisfying the joint embedding and the amalgamation properties with no maximal models of cardinality $\mu$. Let $\mu$ be a cardinal above the the L\"owenheim-Skolem…
Shelah-Woodin investigate the possibility of violating instances of $GCH$ through the addition of a single real. In particular they show that it is possible to obtain a failure of $CH$ by adding a single real to a model of $GCH$, preserving…
We revisit the application of Shelah's Revised GCH Theorem \cite{SheRGCH} to diamond. We also formulate a generalization of the theorem and prove a small fragment of it. Finally we consider another application of the theorem, to covering…
We prove that externally definable sets in first order NIP theories have honest definitions, giving a new proof of Shelah's expansion theorem. Also we discuss a weak notion of stable embeddedness true in this context. Those results are then…
It is proved that if there exists a Luzin set, or if either the stick principle or diamond(b) hold, then a strong instance of the guessing principle $\clubsuit_{AD}$ holds at the first uncountable cardinal. In particular, any of the above…
We give the optimal conditions for the existence of a club consisting of former regular over an inaccessible and a measurable. The foricing construction based on iteration of distributive posets.
This paper is devoted to the analysis of a false generalization of the rule of Sarrus and its properties that can be derived with the help of dihedral groups. Further, we discuss a Sarrus-like scheme that could be helpful for students to…
We study combinatorial principles known as stick and club. Several variants of these principles and cardinal invariants connected to them are also considered. We introduce a new kind of side-by-side product of partial orders which we call…
For each deconstructible class of modules $\mathcal D$, we prove that the categoricity of $\mathcal D$ in a big cardinal is equivalent to its categoricity in a tail of cardinals. We also prove Shelah's Categoricity Conjecture for $(\mathcal…
We show that it is consistent, relative to the consistency of a strongly inaccessible cardinal, that an instance of the generalized Borel Conjecture introduced in [8] holds while the classical Borel Conjecture fails.
We revisit several results concerning club principles and nonsaturation of the nonstationary ideal, attempting to improve them in various ways. So we typically deal with a (non necessarily normal) ideal $J$ extending the nonstationary ideal…
A semiring scheme generalizes a scheme in such a way that the underlying algebra is that of semirings. We generalize \v{C}ech cohomology theory and invertible sheaves to semiring schemes. In particular, when $X=\mathbb{P}^n_M$, a projective…
We show a classification method for finite groupoids and discuss the cardinality of cosets and its relation with the index. We prove a generalization of the Lagrange's Theorem and establish a Sylow theory for groupoids.
