Generalizing classical descriptive set theory opens foundational questions about the Borel hierarchy. In this paper we systematically study those questions, working in the general framework of Polish-like spaces relative to an uncountable…
Combining stationary reflection (a compactness property) with the failure of SCH (an instance of non-compactness) has been a long-standing theme. We obtain this at $\aleph_{\omega_1}$, answering a question of Ben-Neria, Hayut, and Unger: We…
We provide partial solutions to two problems posed by Shehtman concerning the modal logic of the \v{C}ech-Stone compactification of an ordinal space. We use the Continuum Hypothesis to give a finite axiomatization of the modal logic of…
In this work we analyze some topological properties of the remainder $\partial M:=\beta_s^* M\setminus M$ of the semialgebraic Stone-C\v{e}ch compactification $\beta_s^* M$ of a semialgebraic set $M\subset{\mathbb R}^m$ in order to…
We show that under the Continuum Hypothesis, the topological group of all homeomorphisms of the \v{C}ech-Stone remainder of $\omega$ with the $G_\delta$-topology, is a universal object for all $P$-groups of weight at most ${\mathfrak c}$.
In the paper, we recall the Wallman compactification of a Tychonoff space $T$ (denoted by $\text{Wall}(T)$) and the contribution made by Gillman and Jerison. Motivated by the Gelfand-Naimark theorem, we investigate the homeomorphism between…
We study the group of automorphisms of certain corona C*-algebras. As a corollary of a more general C*-algebraic result, we show that, under the Continuum Hypothesis, $\beta X\setminus X$ has nontrivial homeomorphisms, whenever $X$ is a…
For a non-empty set $X$, the collection $Top(X)$ of all topologies on $X$ sits inside the Boolean lattice $\PP(\PP(X))$ (when ordered by set-theoretic inclusion) which in turn can be naturally identified with the Stone space $\px$. Via this…
We present a direct construction of stationary set preserving forcings that make $\omega$-cofinal all the members of some arbitrary set $\mathcal{K}$ of regular cardinals $\kappa > \omega_1$. In addition, it is made possible to ensure that…
There are several compactification procedures in topology, but there is only one standard discretization, namely, replacing the original topology with the discrete topology. We give a notion of discretization which is dual (in categorical…
The $\kappa$-density of a cardinal $\mu\ge\kappa$ is the least cardinality of a dense collection of $\kappa$-subsets of $\mu$ and is denoted by $\mathcal D(\mu,\kappa)$. The Singular Density Hypothesis (SDH) for a singular cardinal $\mu$ of…
We show that if \kappa\ is a weakly compact cardinal then the embeddability relation on (generalized) trees of size \kappa\ is invariantly universal. This means that for every analytic quasi-order R on the generalized Cantor space 2^\kappa\…
Stone-$\breve{C}$ech compactifications derived from a discrete semigroup $S$ can be considered as the spectrum of the algebra $\mathcal{B}(S)$ or as a collection of ultrafilters on $S$. What is certain and indisputable is the fact that…
In the first part of the paper, we show that if $\omega \le \kappa < \lambda$ are cardinals, $\kappa^{<\kappa} = \kappa$, and $\lambda$ is weakly compact, then in $V[\M(\kappa,\lambda)]$ the tree property at $\lambda =…
We discuss some well-known compactness principles for uncountable structures of small regular sizes ($\omega_n$ for $2 \le n<\omega$, $\aleph_{\omega+1}$, $\aleph_{\omega^2+1}$, etc.), consistent from weakly compact (the size-restricted…
We investigate computable metrizability of Polish spaces up to homeomorphism. In this paper we focus on Stone spaces. We use Stone duality to construct the first known example of a computable topological Polish space not homeomorphic to any…
We prove, using a weakening of the Proper Forcing Axiom, that any homemomorphism between Cech--Stone remainders of any two locally compact, zero-dimensional Polish spaces is induced by a homeomorphism between their cocompact subspaces.
We study the external and internal Zappa-Sz\'ep product of topological groupoids. We show that under natural continuity assumptions the Zappa-Sz\'ep product groupoid is \'etale if and only if the individual groupoids are \'etale. In our…
This article aims to obtain a characterization of the canonical extension of Boolean homomorphisms through the Stone-\v{C}ech compactification. Then, we will show that one-to-one homomorphisms and onto homomorphisms extend to one-to-one…
The group of compactly supported homeomorphisms on a Tychonoff space can be topologized in a number of ways, including as a colimit of homeomorphism groups with a given compact support, or as a subgroup of the homeomorphism group of its…
