We extend the results of arXiv:1808.01509 on nonamalgamable forcing extensions to families of posets with wide projections. We also use a different coding method to obtain nonamalgamable extensions by filter-based Mathias forcing.
We give a model where there is a ccc Souslin forcing which does not satisfy the Knaster condition. Next, we present a model where there is a sigma-linked not sigma-centered Souslin forcing such that all its small subsets are sigma-centered…
We introduce a forcing that adds a $\square(\aleph_2,\aleph_0)$-sequence with countable conditions under CH. Assuming the consistency of a weakly compact cardinal, we can find a forcing extension by our new poset in which both…
We show that it is possible to add $\kappa^+-$Cohen subsets to $\kappa$ with a Prikry forcing over $\kappa$. This answers a question from \cite{HayutBenhanouGitik}. A strengthening of non-Galvin property is introduced. It is shown to be…
We use the Perron-Frobenius Theorem to define, study and, in some sense, classify special simple modules over arbitrary finite dimensional positively based algebras. For group algebras of finite Weyl groups with respect to the…
I survey an array of topics in set theory in the context of a novel class of forcing notions: subcomplete forcing. Subcompleteness was originally defined by Ronald Jensen. I have attempted to make the subject somewhat more approachable to…
For every indecomposable ordinal $\alpha < \omega_1$, we introduce a variant of Abraham forcing for adding a club in $\omega_1$, which is $<\alpha$-proper but not $\alpha$-proper.
In this paper we answer several questions in arXiv:2102.06009 regarding density variants of Mathias and Silver forcing. These questions include whether each of the forcing is proper, add dominating real, or add Cohen real. We also…
We use known finite support iteration techniques to present various examples of models where several cardinal characteristics of Cicho\'n's diagram are pairwise different. We show some simple examples forcing the left-hand side of…
We show that the well-partial orderedness of the finite downwards closed subsets of $\mathbb{N}^k$ ,ordered by inclusion, is equivalent to the well-foundedness of the ordinal $\omega^{\omega^\omega}$. This was conjectured to be the case by…
We define a nontrivial version of the square principle $\Box_\omega$, which we then show consistent by means of forcing with finite conditions. This paper has been withdrawn by the author due to the fact that the presented $\Box_\omega$ can…
We are able to derive the equations of motion for forced mechanical systems in a purely variational setting, both in the context of Lagrangian or Hamiltonian mechanics, by duplicating the variables of the system as introduced by Galley…
We consider $(<\lambda)$-support iterations of a version of $(<\lambda)$-strategically complete $\lambda^+$-c.c. definable forcing notions along partial orders. We show that such iterations can be corrected to yield an analog of a result by…
We present a necessary and sufficient condition for a Boolean algebra to carry a finitely additive measure.
We define typical forcings encompassing many informal forcing arguments in bounded arithmetic and give general conditions for such forcings to produce models of the universal variant of relativized $T^1_2$. We apply this result to study the…
The main result of this paper is a partial answer to [math.LO/9909115, Problem 5.5]: a finite iteration of Universal Meager forcing notions adds generic filters for many forcing notions determined by universality parameters. We also give…
We show that the forcing axiom for countably compact, $\omega_2$-Knaster, well-met posets is inconsistent. This is supplemental to an inconsistency result of Shelah and sets a new limit to the generalization of Martin's Axiom to the stage…
We describe a method of building ``nice'' sigma-ideals from Souslin ccc forcing notions. [These notes were written down in 1992, but were not submitted to any journal. In a slightly modified form, they were incorporated to: T. Bartoszynski…
We show the following two extensions of the standard positive mass theorem (one for either sign): Let (N,g) and (N,g') be asymptotically flat Riemannian 3-manifolds with compact interior and finite mass, such that g and g' are twice Hoelder…
In this paper we derive a necessary condition for finite element method (FEM) convergence in $H^1(\Omega)$ as well as generalize known sufficient conditions. We deal with the piecewise linear conforming FEM on triangular meshes for…
