It is widely claimed that the natural axiom systems$\unicode{x2013}$including the large cardinal axioms$\unicode{x2013}$form a well-ordered hierarchy. Yet, as is well-known, it is possible to exhibit non-linearity and ill-foundedness by…
Contraction theory for dynamical systems on Euclidean spaces is well-established. For contractive (resp. semi-contractive) systems, the distance (resp. semi-distance) between any two trajectories decreases exponentially fast. For partially…
We study Structural Reflection beyond Vop\v{e}nka's Principle, at the level of almost-huge cardinals and higher, up to rank-into-rank embeddings. We identify and classify new large cardinal notions in that region that correspond to some…
We introduce the notion of weakly extendible cardinals and show that these cardinals are characterized in terms of weak compactness of second order logic. The consistency strength and largeness of weakly extendible cardinals are located…
We separate the Collection Principle, the Reflection Principle, and the Partial Reflection Principle in ZF with urelements (ZFU), despite their equivalence under the Axiom of Choice. In particular, Collection and the Partial Reflection…
We establish some common fixed point results for four transformations in vector S-metric spaces by using the notion of weakly compatibility (WC) and occasionally weakly compatibility (OWC). The first theorem is proved by using the concept…
Analytic and passivity properties of reflection and transmission coefficients of thin-film multilayered stacks are investigated. Using a rigorous formalism based on the inverse Helmholtz operator, properties associated to causality…
We prove that there is a certain degree of independence between stationary reflection phenomena at different cofinalities; e.g. it is consistent that every stationary subset of S_1^3 reflects at a point of cofinality aleph_2 while every…
The purpose of this paper is to characterize weak supercyclicity for Hilbert-space contractions, which is shown to be equivalent to characterizing weak supercyclicity for unitary operators$.$ This is naturally motivated by an open question…
We introduce the notions of $\varepsilon$-approximate fixed point and weak $\varepsilon$-approximate fixed point. We show that for a group of unitary matrices even the existence of a nontrivial weak $\varepsilon$-approximate fixed point for…
We present some extensions of classical results that involve elements of the dual of Banach spaces, such as Bishop-Phelp's theorem and James' compactness theorem, but restricting to sets of functionals determined by geometrical properties.…
In this paper, we demonstrate that if, for every $\kappa$-complete fine filter $F$ over $\mathcal{P}_{\kappa}\lambda$, the associated Namba forcing $\mathrm{Nm}(\kappa,\lambda,F)$ is semiproper, then $\square(\mu,{<}\aleph_1)$ fails for all…
The purpose of the paper is to suggest a new method which allows one to study multiple coherent reflection/transmissions by partially transparent interfaces (e.g. in multi-layer mesoscopic structures or grain boundaries in high-Tc's) in the…
We analyze the properties of weakly compact sets in Lipschitz free spaces. Prior research has established that, for a complete metric space $M$, weakly precompact sets in the Lipschitz free space $\mathcal F(M)$ are tight. In this paper, we…
It is known that supercyclicity implies strong stability. It is not known whether weak l-sequential supercyclicity implies weak stability. In this paper we prove that weak l-sequential supercyclicity implies weak quasistability. Corollaries…
Starting from a stationary set of supercompact cardinals we find a generic extension in which the tree property holds at every regular cardinal between $\aleph_2$ and $\aleph_{\omega^2}$.
One of the consequences of the Compactness Principle in structural Ramsey theory is that the small Ramsey degrees cannot exceed the corresponding big Ramsey degrees, thereby justifying the choice of adjectives. However, it is unclear what…
We prove that, e.g., if mu >cf(mu)= aleph_0 and mu>2^{aleph_0} and every stationary family of countable subsets of mu^+ reflect in some subset of mu^+ of cardinality aleph_1, then the SCH for mu^+ (moreover, for mu^+, any scale for mu^+ has…
We propose a generalisation of the Weak Gravity Conjecture in the presence of scalar fields. The proposal is guided by properties of extremal black holes in ${\cal N}=2$ supergravity, but can be understood more generally in terms of…
We consider extensions of the language of Peano arithmetic by transfinitely iterated truth definitions satisfying uniform Tarskian biconditionals. Without further axioms, such theories are known to be conservative extensions of the original…
