We prove that, assuming $\mathrm{ZF}$, and restricted to any pointed set, Chaitin's $\Omega_U:x\mapsto \Omega_U^x=\sum_{U^x(\sigma)\downarrow}2^{-|\sigma|}$ is not injective for any universal prefix-free Turing machine $U$, and that…
Drawing on set theory, this paper contributes to a deeper understanding of the structural condition of mathematical finance under Knightian uncertainty. We adopt a projective framework in which all components of the model -- prices, priors…
In this article, the projectivity of finitely generated flat modules of a commutative ring are studied from a topological point of view. Then various interesting results are obtained. For instance, it is shown that if a ring has either a…
We develop an untyped framework for the multiverse of set theory. $\mathsf{ZF}$ is extended with semantically motivated axioms utilizing the new symbols $\mathsf{Uni}(\mathcal{U})$ and $\mathsf{Mod}(\mathcal{U, \sigma})$, expressing that…
Rathjen proved that Aczel's constructive set theory $\mathbf{CZF}$ extended with inaccessible sets of all transfinite orders can be interpreted in Martin-L\"{o}f type theory $\mathbf{MLTT}$ extended with Setzer's Mahlo universe and another…
In the first part of this paper, we consider several natural axioms in urelement set theory, including the Collection Principle, the Reflection Principle, the Dependent Choice scheme and its generalizations, as well as other axioms…
We formulate a definition of the existence property that works with "structural" set theories, in the mode of ETCS (the elementary theory of the category of sets). We show that a range of structural set theories, when formulated using…
Let $\mathcal C$ be a class of topological semigroups. A semigroup $X$ is $injectively$ $\mathcal C$-$closed$ if $X$ is closed in each topological semigroup $Y\in\mathcal C$ containing $X$ as a subsemigroup. Let $\mathsf{T_{\!2}S}$ (resp.…
We define a class of higher inductive types that can be constructed in the category of sets under the assumptions of Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory without the axiom of choice or the existence of uncountable regular cardinals. This class…
The idea of this approach towards proving the consistency of Quine's New Foundations set theory is to go in a completely untyped manner. So no contemplation about types is utilized here. All conceptualization pivots around proving a handful…
In this paper we show that for every $2\leq n\in \mathbb{N}$, the statement "there is an $n$-entangled set, but there are no $n+1$-entangled sets" is consistent. We also prove some theorems which improve our understanding of entangled sets…
The Faith-Menal conjecture says that every strongly right $Johns$ ring is $QF$. The conjecture is also equivalent to say every right noetherian left $FP$-injective ring is $QF$. In this short article, we show that the conjecture is true…
The forcing method is a powerful tool to prove the consistency of set-theoretic assertions relative to the consistency of the axioms of set theory. Laver's theorem and Bukovsk\'y's theorem assert that set-generic extensions of a given…
We study models M of set theory that are "condensable", in the sense that there is an "ordinal" v of M such that the rank initial segment of M determined by v is both isomorphic to M, and also an elementary submodel of M for infinitary…
Establishing that a demand mapping is injective is core first step for a variety of methodologies. When a version of the law of demand holds, global injectivity can be checked by seeing whether the demand mapping is constant over any line…
The main goal of this paper is to formulate a constructive analogue of Ackermann's observation about finite set theory and arithmetic. We will see that Heyting arithmetic is bi-interpretable with $\mathsf{CZF^{fin}}$, the finitary version…
We introduce a model-complete theory which completely axiomatizes the structure $Z_{\alpha}=(Z, +, 0, 1, f)$ where $f : x \to \lfloor{\alpha} x \rfloor $ is a unary function with $\alpha$ a fixed transcendental number. When $\alpha$ is…
We characterize those standard models M of ZFC which are embeddable, as the class of all standard sets, in a model of internal set theory IST. The necessary and sufficient condition is that 1) there is a wellordering < of M which does not…
This paper contains four main results associated with an attractor of a projective iterated function system (IFS). The first theorem characterizes when a projective IFS has an attractor which avoids a hyperplane. The second theorem…
Baer's Criterion for Injectivity is a basic tool of the theory of modules and complexes of modules. Its dual version (DBC) is known to hold for all right perfect rings, but its validity for non-right perfect rings is a complex problem…
