We call a space $X$ {\it weakly linearly Lindel\"of} if for any family $\mathcal{U}$ of non-empty open subsets of $X$ of regular uncountable cardinality $\kappa$, there exists a point $x\in X$ such that every neighborhood of $x$ meets…

We consider strong external difference families (SEDFs); these are external difference families satisfying additional conditions on the patterns of external diferences that occur, and were first defined in the context of classifying optimal…

Sidorenko's conjecture states that the number of copies of a bipartite graph $H$ in a graph $G$ is asymptotically minimised when $G$ is a quasirandom graph. A notorious example where this conjecture remains open is when $H=K_{5,5}\setminus…

We deal with some pcf investigations mostly motivated by abelian group theory problems and deal their applications to test problems (we expect reasonably wide applications). We prove almost always the existence of aleph_omega-free abelian…

Two approaches to Lipschitz structures for any set are presented, studied and compared. The first approach is similar to the one proposed in Fraser, Jr. R. B., Axiom systems for Lipschitz structures, Fundamenta Mathematicae, (1970), where…

Given a family $\mathcal{F}$ of subsets of $[n]$, we say two sets $A, B \in \mathcal{F}$ are comparable if $A \subset B$ or $B \subset A$. Sperner's celebrated theorem gives the size of the largest family without any comparable pairs. This…

Menger's theorem is an important building block of numerous results in the study of graph structure. We consider a variant in terms of coarse geometry. We say that a set of graphs has the weak coarse Menger property if there exist functions…

It is shown that Vop\v{e}nka's Principle (VP) can restore almost the entire ZF over a weak fragment of it. Namely, if EST is the theory consisting of the axioms of Extensionality, Empty Set, Pairing, Union, Cartesian Product,…

We show that square(theta) implies that there is a first countable <theta-collectionwise Hausdorff space that is not weakly theta-collectionwise Hausdorff. We also show that in the model obtained by Levy collapsing a weakly compact…

We study the dependent type theory CaTT, introduced by Finster and Mimram, which presents the theory of weak $\omega$-categories, following the idea that type theories can be considered as presentations of generalized algebraic theories.…

We answer an old question of Michael Hru\v{s}\'{a}k by constructing a $+$-Ramsey \textsf{MAD} family without the need of any additional axioms beyond $\mathsf{ZFC.}$ We also prove that every Miller-indestructible \textsf{MAD }family is…

We show that if $f\colon S_n \to \{0,1\}$ is $\epsilon$-close to linear in $L_2$ and $\mathbb{E}[f] \leq 1/2$ then $f$ is $O(\epsilon)$-close to a union of "mostly disjoint" cosets, and moreover this is sharp: any such union is close to…

We show that there are two different families of (weakly) orthogonal polynomials associated to the quasi-exactly solvable Razavy potential $V(x)=(\z \cosh 2x-M)^2$ ($\z>0$, $M\in\mathbf N$). One of these families encompasses the four sets…

We study the weak Lefschetz property and the Hilbert function of level Artinian monomial almost complete intersections in three variables. Several such families are shown to have the weak Lefschetz property if the characteristic of the base…

In this paper, we consider irreducible quasi-finite (or equivalently weakly integrable) modules, with non-trivial action of the core, over the extended affine Lie algebras (EALAs) whose centerless cores are multiloop algebras. The…

For a weakly branch group $G$ acting on a regular enough rooted tree, we provide two constructions of continuous families of distinct subgroups that are not closed in the profinite topology on $G$. On the one hand, we construct a continuous…

We show that if $cf(2^{\aleph_0})=\aleph_1,$ then any non-trivial $\aleph_1$-closed forcing notion of size $\leq 2^{\aleph_0}$ is forcing equivalent to $Add(\aleph_1, 1),$ the Cohen forcing for adding a new Cohen subset of $\omega_1.$ We…

Using techniques of non-abelian harmonic analysis, we construct an explicit, non-zero cyclic derivation on the Fourier algebra of the real $ax+b$ group. In particular this provides the first proof that this algebra is not weakly amenable.…

We prove that for an arbitrary subtree $T$ of $2^{<\omega}$ with each element extendable to a path, a given countable class $\mathcal{M}$ closed under disjoint union, and any set $A$, if none of the members of $\mathcal{M}$ strongly…

We show that if a simplicial complex is a near-cone of sufficiently high depth, then the only maximum families of small pairwise intersecting faces are those with a common intersection. Thus, near-cones of sufficiently high depth satisfy…
