A ballean is a set endowed with some family of its subsets which are called the balls. We postulate the properties of the family of balls in such a way that the balleans can be considered as the asymptotic counterparts of the uniform…
A ballean (or coarse structure) is a set endowed with some family of subsets, the balls, is such a way that balleans with corresponding morphisms can be considered as asymptotic counterparts of uniform topological spaces. For a ballean…
A ballean $\mathcal{B}$ (or a coarse structure) on a set $X$ is a family of subsets of $X$ called balls (or entourages of the diagonal in $X\times X$) defined in such a way that $\mathcal{B}$ can be considered as the asymptotic counterpart…
A ballean (or coarse space) is a set endowed with a coarse structure. A ballean $X$ is called normal if any two asymptotically disjoint subsets of $X$ are asymptotically separated. We say that a ballean $X$ is ultranormal (extremely normal)…
Let "ex" be the cardinality of the smallest independent family of subsets of omega (independent means that all nontrivial Boolean combinations are infinite) which cannot be extended to a homogeneous independent family. "Homogeneous" means…
For every ballean $X$ we introduce two cardinal characteristics $cov^\flat(X)$ and $cov^\sharp(X)$ describing the capacity of balls in $X$. We observe that these cardinal characteristics are invariant under coarse equivalence and prove that…
Let $X$ be a set, $B_{X}$ denotes the family of all subsets of $X$ and $F: X \longrightarrow B_{X}$ be a set-valued mapping such that $x \in F(x)$, $sup_{x\in X} | F(x)|< \kappa$, $sup_{x\in X} | F^{-1}(x)|< \kappa$ for all $x\in X$ and…
A ballean is a set endowed with a coarse structure. We introduce and explore three constructions of balleans from a pregiven family of balleans: bornological products, bouquets and combs. We analyze the smallest and the largest coarse…
We investigate several relations between cardinal characteristics of the continuum related with the asymptotic density of the natural numbers and some known cardinal invariants. Specifically, we study the cardinals of the form…
We will give an overview of four families of cardinal characteristics defined on subspaces $\prod_{\alpha\in\kappa}b(\alpha)$ of the generalised Baire space ${}^\kappa\kappa$, where $\kappa$ is strongly inaccessible and…
We construct a family F of compact and pathwise connected subsets of the Euclidean plane such that (i) the cardinality of F is that of the continuum (and hence extremely large) and (ii) if X,Y are distinct spaces in F then there never…
Given two ordinal $\lambda$ and $\gamma$, let $f:[0,\lambda) \rightarrow [0,\gamma)$ be a function such that, for each $\alpha<\gamma$, $\sup\{f(t): t\in[0, \alpha]\}<\gamma.$ We define a mapping $d_{f}: [0,\lambda)\times [0,\lambda)…
Let $G$, $H$ be groups and $\kappa$ be a cardinal. A bijection $f:G\to H$ is caled on asymorphism if, for any $X\in[G]^{<\kappa}$, $Y\in[H]^{<\kappa}$, there exist $X'\in[G]^{<\kappa}$, $Y'\in[H]^{<\kappa}$ such that for all $x\in G$ and…
The purpose of this paper is to provide an introductory overview of the large cardinal hierarchy in set theory. By a large cardinal, we mean any cardinal $\kappa$ whose existence is strong enough of an assumption to prove the consistency of…
This paper develops a rich theory of cardinality in the paraconsistent and paracomplete set theory $\mathrm{BZFC}$, where sets can be inconsistent ($A$ such that ``$x\in A$'' is both true and false for some $x$) or incomplete ($A$ such that…
This is a paper that aims to interpret the cardinality of a set in terms of Baire Category, i.e. how many closed nowhere dense sets can be deleted from a set before the set itself becomes negligible. . To do this natural tree-theoretic…
A canonical system of basic invariants is a system of invariants satisfying a set of differential equations. The properties of a canonical system are related to the mean value property for polytopes. In this article, we naturally identify…
A set $X$ endowed with a coarse structure is called ballean or coarse space. For a ballean $(X, \mathcal{E})$, we say that two subsets $A$, $B$ of $X$ are close (linked) if there exists an entourage $E\in \mathcal{E}$ such that $A\subseteq…
By a ballean we understand a set $X$ endowed with a family of entourages which is a base of some coarse structure on $X$. Given two unbounded ballean $X,Y$ with normal product $X\times Y$, we prove that the balleans $X,Y$ have bounded…
Based on the well-known cardinal characteristics $\mathfrak{s}$, $\mathfrak{r}$ and $\mathfrak{i}$, we introduce nine related cardinal characteristics by using the notion of asymptotic density to characterise different intersection…
