In this paper, we study the set $\mathcal{S}^\kappa = \{ (x,y)\in\mathcal{G}\times\mathbb{R}^n : y_j = x_j^\kappa , j=1,\dots,n\}$, where $\kappa > 1$ and the ground set $\mathcal{G}$ is a nonempty polytope contained in $[0,1]^n$. This…
For every uncountable regular $\kappa$, we give two examples of proper posets which turn improper in some $\kappa$-closed forcing extension.
We comment on a recent paper that connects certain forms of machine learning to Set Theory. We point out that part of the set-theoretic machinery is related to a result of Kuratowski about decompositions of finite powers of sets and we show…
We consider various notions of equivalence in the space of bounded operators on a Hilbert space, in particular modulo finite rank, modulo Schatten $p$-class, and modulo compact. Using Hjorth's theory of turbulence, the latter two are shown…
Given a nonempty set $\mathcal{L}$ of linear orders, we say that the linear order $L$ is $\mathcal{L}$-convex embeddable into the linear order $L'$ if it is possible to partition $L$ into convex sets indexed by some element of $\mathcal{L}$…
Given an uncountable cardinal $\kappa$, we consider the question of whether subsets of the power set of $\kappa$ that are usually constructed with the help of the Axiom of Choice are definable by $\Sigma_1$-formulas that only use the…
Let $\kappa$ be an inaccessible cardinal, $\mathfrak{U}$ be a universal algebra, and $\sim$ be the equivalence relation on $\mathfrak{U}^{\kappa}$ of eventual equality. From mild assumptions on $\kappa$ we give general constructions of…
We construct a family of right coideal subalgebras of quantum groups, which have the property that all irreducible representations are one-dimensional, and which are maximal with this property. The obvious examples for this are the standard…
If $X$ is an analytic metric space satisfying a very mild doubling condition, then for any finite Borel measure $\mu$ on $X$ there is a set $N\subseteq X$ such that $\mu(N)>0$, an ultrametric space $Z$ and a Lipschitz bijection $\phi:N\to…
A cardinal kappa is countably closed if mu^omega < kappa whenever mu < kappa. Assume that there is no inner model with a Woodin cardinal and that every set has a sharp. Let K be the core model. Assume that kappa is a countably closed…
Let $G $ be a group of cardinality $\kappa>\aleph_0 $ endowed with a topology $\tau $ such that $|U|=\kappa$ for every non-empty $U\in\tau$ and $\tau$ has a base of cardinality $\kappa$. We prove that $G$ could be factorized $G=AB$ (i.e.…
We prove that any suitable generalization of Laver forcing to the space $ \kappa^\kappa$, for uncountable regular $\kappa$, necessarily adds a Cohen $\kappa$-real. We also study a dichotomy and an ideal naturally related to generalized…
The $L^2$-cohomology of a locally symmetric variety is known to have the topological interpretation as the intersection homology of its Baily-Borel Satake compactification. In this article, we observe that even without the Hermitian…
We study conditions on automorphisms of Boolean algebras of the form $P(\lambda)/I_\kappa$ (where $\lambda$ is an uncountable cardinal and $I_\kappa$ is the ideal of sets of cardinality less than $\kappa$) which allow one to conclude that a…
In this paper we study a notion of a $\kappa$-covering in connection with Bernstein sets and other types of nonmeasurability. Our results correspond to those obtained by Muthuvel and Nowik. We consider also other types of coverings.
We show a new proof for the fact that when $\kappa$ and $\lambda$ are infinite cardinals satisfying $\lambda ^ \kappa = \lambda$, the cofinality of the set of all functions from $\lambda$ to $\kappa$ ordered by everywhere domination is…
The concepts of a conditional set, a conditional inclusion relation and a conditional Cartesian product are introduced. The resulting conditional set theory is sufficiently rich in order to construct a conditional topology, a conditional…
We show that, up to terms of order 1/kappa^5, the kappa-deformed Poincare algebra can be endowed with a triangular quasibialgebra structure. The universal R matrix and coassociator are given explicitly to the first few orders. In the…
We consider countable linear orders and study the quasi-order of convex embeddability and its induced equivalence relation. We obtain both combinatorial and descriptive set-theoretic results, and further extend our research to the case of…
We prove that, for $1 \le p<q<\infty$, the partially ordered set $P(\omega)/{\rm Fin}$ can be embedded into Borel equivalence relations between $\mathbb{R}^\omega/\ell_p$ and $\mathbb{R}^\omega/\ell_q$. Since there is an antichain of size…
