The exodromy correspondence of Barwick, Glasman, and Haine computes constructible sheaves of spaces on a scheme $X$ as an $\infty$-category of continuous functors from the profinite category $\operatorname{Gal}(X)$. Viewing…

We introduce and study the notion of a locally proper map between topological spaces. We show that fundamental constructions of sheaf theory, more precisely proper base change, projection formula, and Verdier duality, can be extended from…

In the absence of the axiom of choice, the set-theoretic status of many natural statements about metrizable compact spaces is investigated. Some of the statements are provable in $\mathbf{ZF}$, some are shown to be independent of…

This paper introduces an alternative approach to proving the existence of choice functions for specific families of sets within Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory (ZF) without assuming any form on the Axiom of Choice (AC). Traditional methods of…

Cantor's ordinal numbers, a powerful extension of the natural numbers, are a cornerstone of set theory. They can be used to reason about the termination of processes, prove the consistency of logical systems, and justify some of the core…

We generalize to vector bundles the techniques introduced for line bundles in prior work of the author with Liu, Osserman and Zhang. We then use this method to prove the injectivity of the Petri map for vector bundles and the surjectivity…

We define notions of differentiability for maps from and to the space of persistence barcodes. Inspired by the theory of diffeological spaces, the proposed framework uses lifts to the space of ordered barcodes, from which derivatives can be…

Under $\text{CH}$ we construct a partition of Baire space into compact sets, which is indestructible by countably supported iteration and product of Sacks forcing of any length, answering a question of Newelski. Further, we present an…

We present the first steps of a predicative reconstruction of the constructive Bishop-Cheng measure theory. Working in a semi-formal elaboration of Bishop's set theory and invoking the notion of a set-indexed family of subsets (of a given…

We generalize the notion of a small sheaf of sets over a topological space or manifold to define the notion of a small stack of groupoids over an \'etale topological or differentiable stack. We then provide a construction analogous to the…

Persistent homology has been recently studied with the tools of sheaf theory in the derived setting by Kashiwara and Schapira, after J. Curry has made the first link between persistent homology and sheaves. We prove the isometry theorem in…

Set theory is widely believed to provide a secure foundation for deductive mathematics, but current set theories do not quite do this. The mainstream essentially uses na\"\i ve set theory. After Russell's paradox showed this to be…

We prove in constructive logic that the statement of the Cantor-Bernstein theorem implies excluded middle. This establishes that the Cantor-Bernstein theorem can only be proven assuming the full power of classical logic. The key ingredient…

The aim of these lectures is to give a short introduction to forcing. We will avoid metamathematical issues as much as possible and similarly we will avoid performing the actual construction of forcing. We assume familiarity with basic…

In recent years the question of whether adding the limited principle of omniscience, LPO, to constructive Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory, CZF, increases its strength has arisen several times. As the addition of excluded middle for atomic…

We say that a set is exhaustible if it admits algorithmic universal quantification for continuous predicates in finite time, and searchable if there is an algorithm that, given any continuous predicate, either selects an element for which…
