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…
Let $C(X)$ be the set of all real valued continuous functions on a metric space $(X,d)$. Caserta introduced the topology of strong Whitney convergence on bornology for $C(X)$ in [A. Caserta, Strong Whitney convergence, Filomat, 2012], which…
Usuba has asked whether the $\kappa$-mantle, the intersection of all grounds that extend to $V$ via a forcing of size ${<}\kappa$, is always a model of ZFC. We give a negative answers by constructing counterexamples where $\kappa$ is a…
A result of G. Godefroy asserts that a Banach space $X$ contains an isomorphic copy of $\ell_1$ if and only if there is an equivalent norm $|||\cdot|||$ such that, for every finite-dimensional subspace $Y$ of $X$ and every $\varepsilon>0$,…
A space $X$ is $D$ if for every assignment, $U$, of an open neighborhood to each point $x$ in $X$ there is a closed discrete $D$ such that $\bigcup \{U(x) : x \in D\}=X$. The box product, $\square X^\omega$, is $X^\omega$ with topology…
Suppose $\kappa$ is a regular cardinal and $\bar a=\langle \mu_i: i<\kappa \rangle$ is a non-decreasing sequence of regular cardinals. We study the set of possible cofinalities of cuts Pcut$(\bar a)=\{(\lambda_1, \lambda_2):$ for some…
We present an overview of results on the question of whether the non-stationary ideal of an uncountable regular cardinal $\kappa$ can be defined by a $\Pi_1$-formula using parameters of hereditary cardinality at most $\kappa$. These results…
For certain uncountable cardinals $\kappa$ we produce a group of cardinality $\kappa$ which is freely indecomposable, strongly $\kappa$-free, and whose abelianization is free abelian of rank $\kappa$. The construction takes place in…
Let B(kappa, lambda) be the subalgebra of P(kappa) generated by [kappa]^{<= lambda}. It is shown that if B is any homomorphic image of B(kappa, lambda) then either |B|< 2^lambda or |B|=|B|^lambda, moreover if X is the Stone space of B then…
Answering some of the main questions from [MR13], we show that whenever $\kappa$ is a cardinal satisfying $\kappa^{< \kappa} = \kappa > \omega$, then the embeddability relation between $\kappa$-sized structures is strongly invariantly…
The aim of this paper is to investigate the class of quasi $\kappa$-metrizable spaces. This class is invariant with respect to arbitrary products and contains Shchepin's $\kappa$-metrizable spaces as a proper subclass.
We consider, for infinite cardinals kappa and alpha <= kappa^+, the group Pi(kappa,< alpha) of sequences of integers, of length kappa, with non-zero entries in fewer than alpha positions. Our main result tells when Pi(kappa,< alpha) can be…
A topological space $X$ is $\kappa$-Fr\'{e}chet--Urysohn if for every open subset $U$ of $X$ and every $x\in \overline{U}$ there exists a sequence in $ U$ converging to $x$. We prove that every $\kappa$-Fr\'{e}chet--Urysohn Tychonoff space…
Assume ZFC. Let $\kappa$ be a cardinal. Recall that a ${<\kappa}$-ground is a transitive proper class $W$ modelling ZFC such that $V$ is a generic extension of $W$ via a forcing $\mathbb{P}\in W$ of cardinality ${<\kappa}$, and the…
We show that for any uncountable cardinal $\lambda$, the category of sets of cardinality at least $\lambda$ and monomorphisms between them cannot appear as the category of point of a topos, in particular is not the category of models of a…
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…
We study the question of when an uncountable ccc topological space $X$ contains a ccc subspace of size $\aleph_1$. We show that it does if $X$ is compact Hausdorff and more generally if $X$ is Hausdorff with $\mathrm{pct}(X) \leq \aleph_1$.…
C-cross topologies are introduced. Modifcations of the Kuratowski-Ulam Theorem are considered. Cardinal invariants add, cof, cov and non with respect to meager or nowhere dense subsets are compared. Remarks on invariants cof(nwdY) are…
We define a family of star products and involutions associated with $\kappa$-Minkowski space. Applying corresponding quantization maps we show that these star products restricted to a certain space of Schwartz functions have isomorphic…
For an uncountable regular cardinal \kappa we let \nabla_\kappa(A) be the statement that A \subset \kappa and for all regular \theta > \kappa, the set of all X \in [\theta]^<\kappa such that X \cap \kappa \in \kappa and otp(X \cap OR) is a…
