We prove that assuming suitable cardinal arithmetic, if B is a Boolean algebra every homomorphic image of which is isomorphic to a factor, then B has locally small density. We also prove that for an (infinite) Boolean algebra B, the number…

A finitely generated group $G$ is said to be condensed if its isomorphism class in the space of finitely generated marked groups has no isolated points. We prove that every product variety $\mathcal{UV}$, where $\mathcal{U}$ (respectively,…

Let $B_{x}\subseteq\mathbb{R}^{n}$ denote the Euclidean ball with diameter $[0,x]$, i.e. with with center at $\frac{x}{2}$ and radius $\frac{\left|x\right|}{2}$. We call such a ball a petal. A flower $F$ is any union of petals, i.e.…

A group topology is said to be linear if open subgroups form a base of neighborhoods of the identity element. It is proved that the existence of a nondiscrete extremally disconnected group of Ulam nonmeasurable cardinality with linear…

A little-known and highly economical characterization of the real interval [0, 1], essentially due to Freyd, states that the interval is homeomorphic to two copies of itself glued end to end, and, in a precise sense, is universal as such.…

We present a natural family of Hilbert function spaces on the d-dimensional complex unit ball and classify which of them satisfy that subsets of the ball yield isometrically isomorphic subspaces if and only if there is an analytic…

Let "ex" be the cardinality of the smallest independent family of subsets of omega (independent means that all nontrivial Boolean combinations are infinite) which cannot be extended to a homogeneous independent family. "Homogeneous" means…

The best-known version of Shelah's celebrated singular cardinal compactness theorem states that if the cardinality of an abelian group is singular, and all its subgroups of lesser cardinality are free, then the group itself is free. The…

We consider the Arveson-Douglas conjecture on the essential normality of homogeneous submodules corresponding to algebraic subvarieties of the unit ball. We prove that the property of essential normality is preserved by isomorphisms between…

Given a category, one may construct slices of it. That is, one builds a new category whose objects are the morphisms from the category with a fixed codomain and morphisms certain commutative triangles. If the category is a groupoid, so that…

Systems of germs of sets in infinite-dimensional spaces are introduced and studied. Such a system corresponds to a local zero-set of an ideal of the ring of analytic functions of infinite number of variables. Conversely, this system of…

We define a ring whose elements are rational functions, whose addition is polynomial multiplication, and whose multiplication is a convolution operation. It is then show that this ring's endomorphisms exhibit a strong classification.…

Solenoids are inverse limit spaces over regular covering maps of closed manifolds. M.C. McCord has shown that solenoids are topologically homogeneous and that they are principal bundles with a profinite structure group. We show that if a…

We construct non-isogenous simple ordinary abelian varieties over an algebraic closure of a finite field with isomorphic endomorphism algebras.

A finite family ${\mathcal B}$ of balls with respect to an arbitrary norm in ${\mathbb R}^d$ ($d\geq 2$) is called a non-separable family if there is no hyperplane disjoint from $\bigcup {\mathcal B}$ that strictly separates some elements…

We define a family of graphs we call dual systolic graphs. This definition comes from graphs that are duals of systolic simplicial complexes. Our main result is a sharp (up to constants) isoperimetric inequality for dual systolic graphs.…

We formalize the ``metric bundle'' viewpoint by defining, for any smooth $n$--manifold $M$, the open fiberwise cones $\mathcal{G}^{p,q}\subset S^2\Tstar M$ of nondegenerate symmetric bilinear forms with fixed signature $(p,q)$, and we…

Let $X$ be a set, $B_{X}$ denotes the family of all subsets of $X$ and $F: X \longrightarrow B_{X}$ be a set-valued mapping such that $x \in F(x)$, $sup_{x\in X} | F(x)|< \kappa$, $sup_{x\in X} | F^{-1}(x)|< \kappa$ for all $x\in X$ and…

For a Euclidean building $X$ of type $A_{2}$, we classify the 0-dimensional subbuildings $A$ of $\partial_{T}X$ that occur as the asymptotic boundary of closed convex subsets. In particular, we show that triviality of the holonomy of a…

We consider homogeneity properties of Boolean algebras that have nonprincipal ultrafilters which are countably generated.It is shown that a Boolean algebra B is homogeneous if it is the union of countably generated nonprincipal ultrafilters…
