Unstable particles are notorious in perturbative quantum field theory for producing singular propagators in scattering amplitudes that require regularization by the finite width. In this review I discuss the construction of an effective…

Dividing asks about inconsistency along indiscernible sequences. In order to study the finer structure of simple theories without much dividing, the authors recently introduced shearing, which essentially asks about inconsistency along…

We address several questions of Donald Monk related to irredundance and spread of Boolean algebras, gaining both some ZFC knowledge and consistency results. We show in ZFC that irr(B_0 times B_1)= max(irr(B_0),irr(B_1)). We prove…

We extend the concept of "almost indiscernible theory" introduced by Pillay and Sklinos in [Bull. Symb. Log., 2015] (which was itself a modernization and expansion of Baldwin and Shelah [Algebra Universalis, 1983]), to uncountable languages…

Our theme is that not every interesting question in set theory is independent of $ZFC$. We give an example of a first order theory $T$ with countable $D(T)$ which cannot have a universal model at $\aleph_1$ without CH; we prove in $ZFC$ a…

We consider a steady state $v_{0}$ of the Euler equation in a fixed bounded domain in $\mathbf{R}^{n}$. Suppose the linearized Euler equation has an exponential dichotomy of unstable and center-stable subspaces. By rewriting the Euler…

We prove that some natural "outside" property is equivalent (for a first order class) to being stable. For a model, being resplendent is a strengthening of being kappa-saturated. Restricting ourselves to the case kappa > |T| for…

lambda-good frame is for us a parallel of the class of models of a superstable theory. Our main line is to start with lambda-good^+ frame s, categorical in lambda, n-successful for n large enough and try to have parallel of stability theory…

We study the branch of semi-stable and unstable solutions (i.e., those whose Morse index is at most one) of the Dirichlet boundary value problem $-\Delta u=\frac{\lambda f(x)}{(1-u)^2}$ on a bounded domain $\Omega \subset \R^N$, which…

A stable filter has the property that it asymptotically `forgets' initial perturbations. As a result of this property, it is possible to construct approximations of such filters whose errors remain small in time, in other words…

We construct a model of the form $L[A,U]$ that exhibits the simplest structural behavior of $\sigma$-complete ultrafilters in a model of set theory with a single measurable cardinal $\kappa$ , yet satisfies $2^\kappa = \kappa^{++}$. This…

Let G be a finite graph with the non-k-order property (essentially, a uniform finite bound on the size of an induced sub-half-graph). A major result of the paper applies model-theoretic arguments to obtain a stronger version of…

We introduce a new class of large structured random matrices characterized by four fundamental properties which we discuss. We prove that this class is stable under matrix-valued and pointwise non-linear operations. We then formulate an…

We develop local stable group theory directly from topological dynamics, and extend the main results in this subject to the setting of stability "in a model". Specifically, given a group $G$, we analyze the structure of sets $A\subseteq G$…

The population model of Busenberg and Travis is a paradigmatic model in ecology and tumour modelling due to its ability to capture interesting phenomena like the segregation of populations. Its singular mathematical structure enforces the…
