We prove the following continuous analogue of Vaught's Two-Cardinal Theorem: if for some $\kappa>\lambda\geq \aleph_0$, a continuous theory $T$ has a model with density character $\kappa$ which has a definable subset of density character…
It was shown by Bishop that if Thurston's $K = 2$ conjecture holds for some planar domain, then Brennan's conjecture holds for the Riemann map of that domain as well. In this paper we show numerically that the original counterexample to…
This note contains a plethora of counterexamples to attempts to generalize the results of bi-parameter embedding from $p=2$ case to either $p>2$ or $p<2$. This is in striking difference to $p=2$ case that was fully understood in the series…
We consider the minimal model program for varieties that are not Q-factorial. We show that, in many cases, its steps are simpler than expected. In particular, all flips are 1-complemented. The main applications are to log terminal…
We prove a general transfer theorem for multivariate random sequences with independent random indexes in the double array limit setting. We also prove its partial inverse providing necessary and sufficient conditions for the convergence of…
We prove that a strong version of Chang's Conjecture, equivalent to the Weak Reflection Principle at $\omega_2$, together with $2^\omega=\omega_2$, imply there are no $\omega_2$-Aronszajn trees.
In this article, we give two different proofs of why the Collatz Conjecture is false.
We provide further evidence to favor the fact that rank-one convexity does not imply quasiconvexity for two-component maps in dimension two. We provide an explicit family of maps parametrized by $\tau$, and argue that, for small $\tau$,…
We use capacity theory to analyze Coppersmith's method for finding small solutions of linear two variable polynomial congruences. We show that the method will succeed in a positive proportion of cases and fail in a different positive…
We provides some new equivalent forms of collection principle over some very weak set theories after reviewing the existing ones.
We show that a weak version of the canonical bundle formula holds for fibrations of relative dimension one. We provide various applications thereof, for instance, using the recent result of Xu and Zhang, we prove the log non-vanishing…
The goal of this paper is to describe an elementary combinatorial heuristic that predicts Hardy and Littlewood's extended Goldbach's conjecture. We examine common features of other heuristics in additive prime number theory, such as…
We reformulate slightly Russell's notion of typicality, so as to eliminate its circularity and make it applicable to elements of any first-order structure. We argue that the notion parallels Martin-L\"{o}f (ML) randomness, in the sense that…
This paper extends classical probabilistic results to the broader class of demimartingales and demisubmartingales. We establish variants of Doob's-type optional sampling theorem under minimal structural conditions on stopping times, relying…
We initiate the representation theory of restricted Lie superalgebras over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p>2. A superalgebra generalization of the celebrated Kac-Weisfeiler Conjecture is formulated, which exhibits a…
Using combinatorial covering properties, we show that there is no concentrated set of reals of size $\omega_2$ in the Miller model. The main result refutes a conjecture of Bartoszy\'{n}ski and Halbeisen. We also prove that there are no…
The Total Rank Conjecture is a coarser version of the Buchsbaum-Eisenbud-Horrocks conjecture which, loosely stated, predicts that modules with large annihilators must also have ``large'' syzygies. This conjecture was proved by the second…
We prove that many of the results of the LMMP hold for $3$-folds over fields of characteristic $p>5$ which are not necessarily perfect. In particular, the existence of flips, the cone theorem, the contraction theorem for birational extremal…
The title theorem is proved by example: an algebra of binary relations, closed under intersection and composition, that is not isomorphic to any such algebra on a finite set.
We give a new proof of the Mordell-Lang conjecture in positive characteristic for finitely generated subgroups. We also make some progress towards the full Mordell-Lang conjecture in positive characteristic.
