There exist two known canonical types of ultrafilter extensions of first-order models; one comes from modal logic and universal algebra, another one from model theory and algebra of ultrafilters, with ultrafilter extensions of semigroups as…
Given an ordered structure, we study a natural way to extend the order to preorders on type spaces. For definably complete, linearly ordered structures, we give a characterisation of the preorder on the space of 1-types. We apply these…
The main motivation of this paper is the study of first-order model theoretic properties of structures having their roots in modal logic. We will focus on the connections between ultrafilter extensions and ultrapowers. We show that certain…
In [1] the authors showed some basic properties of a pre-order that arose in combinatorial number theory, namely the finite embeddability between sets of natural numbers, and they presented its generalization to ultrafilters, which is…
We extend some of our earlier results on the interconnection between ultrafilter extensions, and ultrapowers. Throughout we restrict ourselves to relational structures with one binary relation. Recently it was shown that for bounded…
There exist two distinct types of ultrafilter extensions of binary relations, one discovered in universal algebra and modal logic, and another, in model theory and algebra of ultrafilters. We show that the extension of the latter type is…
We propose a uniform method of constructing ultrafilter extensions from canonical models, which is based on the similarity between ultrafilters and maximal consistent sets. This method can help us understand why the known ultrafilter…
We characterize ultrafilter convergence and ultrafilter compactness in linearly ordered and generalized ordered topological spaces. In such spaces, and for every ultrafilter $D$, the notions of $D$-compactness and of $D$-pseudocompactness…
We further investigate a divisibility relation on the set $\beta N$ of ultrafilters on the set of natural numbers. We single out prime ultrafilters (divisible only by 1 and themselves) and establish a hierarchy in which a position of every…
We continue the research of the relation $\hspace{1mm}\widetilde{\mid}\hspace{1mm}$ on the set $\beta {\mathbb{N}}$ of ultrafilters on ${\mathbb{N}}$, defined as an extension of the divisibility relation. It is a quasiorder, so we see it as…
We prove a single category-theoretic result encapsulating the notions of ultrafilters, ultrapower, ultraproduct, tensor product of ultrafilters, the Rudin--Kiesler partial ordering on ultrafilters, and Blass's category of ultrafilters UF.…
We continue the research of an extension $\widetilde{\mid}$ of the divisibility relation to the Stone-\v Cech compactification $\beta N$. First we prove that ultrafilters we call prime actually possess the algebraic property of primality.…
A divisibility relation on ultrafilters on the set $\mathbb{N}$ of natural numbers is defined as follows: ${\cal F}\hspace{1mm}\widetilde{\mid}\hspace{1mm}{\cal G}$ if and only if every set in $\cal F$ upward closed for divisibility also…
Let $(M,\scott X) \models \ACA$ be such that $P_\scott X$, the collection of all unbounded sets in $\scott X$, admits a definable complete ultrafilter and let $T$ be a theory extending first order arithmetic coded in $\scott X$ such that…
To work more accurately with elements of the semigroup of the Stone Cech compactification of the discrete semigroup of natural numbers N under multiplication. We divided these elements into ultrafilters which are on finite levels and…
An extension of the divisibility relation on $\mathbb{N}$ to the set $\beta\mathbb{N}$ of ultrafilters on $\mathbb{N}$ was defined and investigated in several papers during the last ten years. Here we make a survey of results obtained so…
This paper introduces the seed order, a partial order of the class of uniform countably complete ultrafilters that generalizes the Mitchell order on normal measures. Like that order, the seed order is consistently a linear ordering even…
Ultrafilters are very useful and versatile objects with applications throughout mathematics: in topology, analysis, combinarotics, model theory, and even theory of social choice. Proofs based on ultrafilters tend to be shorter and more…
We discuss the connection between various orders on the class of all the ultrafilters and certain compactness properties of abstract logics and of topological spaces. We present a model theoretical characterization of Comfort order. We…
We develop a family of simple rank one theories built over quite arbitrary sequences of finite hypergraphs. (This extends an idea from the recent proof that Keisler's order has continuum many classes, however, the construction does not…
