For each $n\geq 2$, we show that the class of all finite $n$-dimensional partial orders, when expanded with $n$ linear orders which realize the partial order, forms a Fra\"iss\'e class and identify its Fra\"iss\'e limit…
This article is concerned with classes of relational structures that are closed under taking substructures and isomorphism, that have the joint embedding property, and that furthermore have the Ramsey property, a strong combinatorial…
In this paper we introduce a new topological Ramsey space whose elements are infinite ordered polyhedra. Then, we show as an application that the set of finite polyhedra satisfies two types of Ramsey property: one, when viewed as a category…
We study in this paper some connections between the Fraisse theory of amalgamation classes and ultrahomogeneous structures, Ramsey theory, and topological dynamics of automorphism groups of countable structures.
The celebrated theorem of Kechris, Pestov and Todor\v{c}evi\'c connecting structural Ramsey theory with topological dynamics has as a consequence that the Fra\"{\i}ss\'e limit of a Ramsey class of non-trivial finite relational structures…
This paper is devoted to the study of universality for a particular continuous action naturally attached to certain pairs of closed subgroups of $S_{\infty}$. It shows that three new concepts, respectively called relative extreme…
We apply the Dual Ramsey Theorem of Graham and Rothschild to prove the Ramsey property for classes of finite Boolean algebras with distinguished ideals. This allows us to compute the universal minimal flow of the group of automorphisms of…
We show that the Gurarij space $\mathbb{G}$ has extremely amenable automorphism group. This answers a question of Melleray and Tsankov. We also compute the universal minimal flow of the automorphism group of the Poulsen simplex $\mathbb{P}$…
In 2005, the paper "Fraiss\'e limits, Ramsey theory, and topological dynamics of automorphism groups" [KPT] by Kechris, Pestov and Todorcevic provided a powerful tool to compute an invariant of topological groups known as the universal…
For $G$ a closed subgroup of $S_{\infty}$, we provide an explicit characterization of the greatest $G$-ambit. Using this, we provide a precise characterization of when $G$ has metrizable universal minimal flow. In particular, each such…
We consider Fra\"iss\'e structures whose objects have finite big Ramsey degree and ask what consequences this has for the dynamics of the automorphism group. Motivated by a theorem of D. Devlin about the partition properties of the…
In this paper we provide a necessary and sufficient condition for the amenability of the automorphism group of Fra\"iss\'e structures and apply it to prove the non-amenability of the automorphism groups of the directed graph $\mathbf{S}(3)$…
Moore characterized the amenability of automorphism groups of countable ultrahomogeneous structures by a Ramsey-type property. We extend this result to automorphism groups of metric Fra\"iss\'e structures, which encompass all Polish groups.…
We use ideas from topological dynamics (amenability), combinatorics (structural Ramsey theory) and model theory (Fra\" {i}ss\' e limits) to study closed amenable subgroups $G$ of the symmetric group $S_\infty$ of a countable set, where…
It is a well-known fact, that the greatest ambit for a topological group $G$ is the Samuel compactification of $G$ with respect to the right uniformity on $G.$ We apply the original destription by Samuel from 1948 to give a simple…
We study Ramsey-theoretic properties of several natural classes of finite ultrametric spaces, describe the corresponding Urysohn spaces and compute a dynamical invariant attached to their isometry groups.
A Polish group $G$ has the generic point property if any minimal $G$-flow admits a comeager orbit, or equivalently if the universal minimal flow (UMF) does. The class $\mathsf{GPP}$ of such Polish groups is a proper extension of the class…
We prove that if the universal minimal flow of a Polish group $G$ is metrizable and contains a $G_\delta$ orbit $G \cdot x_0$, then it is isomorphic to the completion of the homogeneous space $G/G_{x_0}$ and show how this result translates…
We consider the topological dynamics of the automorphism group of a particular sparse graph M_1 resulting from an ab initio Hrushovski construction. We show that minimal subflows of the flow of linear orders on M_1 have all orbits meagre,…
We develop the theory of Fra\"iss\'e limits for classes of finite-dimensional multi-seminormed spaces, which are defined to be vector spaces equipped with a finite sequence of seminorms. We define a notion of a Fra\"iss\'e Fr\'echet space…
