We study the noncommutative superspace of arbitrary dimensions in a systematic way. Superfield theories on a noncommutative superspace can be formulated in two folds, through the star product formalism and in terms of the supermatrices. We…
Let $k$ be a number field with algebraic closure $\bar{k}$, and let $S$ be a finite set of places of $k$ containing all the archimedean ones. Fix $d\geq 2$ and $\alpha \in \bar{k}$ such that the map $z\mapsto z^d+\alpha$ is not…
In [19], Taslaman, Tisseur, and Zaballa show that any regular matrix polynomial $P(\lambda)$ over an algebraically closed field is spectrally equivalent to a triangular matrix polynomial of the same degree. When $P(\lambda)$ is real and…
We prove that there exists a nonprincipal ultrafilter $\mathcal U$ on $\mathbb N$ such that for every countable (or separable) structure $B$ in a countable language the quotient map from the reduced product associated with the Fr\'echet…
We study ultrafilters on regular uncountable cardinals, with a primary focus on $\omega_1$, and particularly in relation to the Tukey order on directed sets. Results include the independence from ZFC of the assertion that every uniform…
We continue investigations of reasonable ultrafilters on uncountable cardinals defined in Shelah math.LO/0407498 and studied also in math.LO/0605067. We introduce a general scheme of generating a filter on lambda from filters on smaller…
Breuil et Schneider formulated a conjecture on the equivalence of the existence of invariant norms on certain locally algebraic representations of GL_d(F) and the existence of certain de Rham representations of Gal(\bar(Q_p)/F)$, where F is…
1. For many regular cardinals lambda (in particular, for all successors of singular strong limit cardinals, and for all successors of singular omega-limits), for all n in {2,3,4, ...} : There is a linear order L such that L^n has no…
Let $\mathrm{cof}(\mu)=\mu$ and $\kappa$ be a supercompact cardinal with $\mu<\kappa$. Assume that there is an increasing and continuous sequence of cardinals $\langle\kappa_\xi\mid \xi<\mu\rangle$ with $\kappa_0:=\kappa$ and such that, for…
Given a strong limit cardinal $\lambda$ of countable cofinality, we show that if every $\lambda$-coanalytic subset of the generalised Cantor space ${}^{\lambda}2$ has the $\lambda$-$\mathsf{PSP}$, then there is an inner model with…
In chapter 9 of his book "The Axiom of Determinacy, Forcing Axioms, and the Nonstationary Ideal", Woodin shows how to force the Strong Chang Conjecture over models of determinacy using $\mathbb{P}_{\mathrm{max}}$. We show here how a…
We show that it is equiconsistent with $\mathsf{ZF}$ that Fodor's lemma fails everywhere, and furthermore that the club filter on every regular cardinal is not even $\sigma$-complete. Moreover, these failures can be controlled in a very…
We show that Dependent Choice is a sufficient choice principle for developing the basic theory of proper forcing, and for deriving generic absoluteness for the Chang model in the presence of large cardinals, even with respect to…
We introduce a new compactness principle which we call the gluing property. For a measurable cardinal $\kappa$ and a cardinal $\lambda$, we say that $\kappa$ has the $\lambda$-gluing property if every sequence of $\lambda$-many…
We characterize the Tukey order, the Galvin property/ Cohesive ultrafilters from \cite{Kanamori1978} in terms of ultrapowers. We use this characterization to measure the distance between the Tukey order and other well-known orders of…
A proof will be presented that the existence of a non-trivial $\Sigma_1$-elementary embedding $j: V_{\lambda+3} \prec V_{\lambda+3}$ is inconsistent with $\textsf{ZF}$. Sections 1 and 2 shall review various important contributions from the…
In recent years, several problems regarding the partition regularity of exponential configurations have been studied in the literature, in some cases using the properties of specific ultrafilters. In this paper, we start to lay down the…
We study the conditions to have supersymmetric D-branes on general {\cal N}=1 backgrounds with Ramond-Ramond fluxes. These conditions can be written in terms of the two pure spinors associated to the SU(3)\times SU(3) structure on T_M\oplus…
Multiplicative and additive $D$-stability, diagonal stability, Schur $D$-stability, $H$-stability are classical concepts which arise in studying linear dynamical systems. We unify these types of stability, as well as many others, in one…
We show the consistency of the set of regular cardinals which are the character of some ultrafilter on omega is not convex. We also deal with the set of pi chi-characters of ultrafilters on omega.
