A partial ordering P is said to have the weak Freese-Nation property (WFN) if there is a mapping f:P ---> [P]^{<= aleph_0} such that, for any a, b in P, if a <= b then there exists c in f(a) cap f(b) such that a <= c <= b. In this note, we…

The following results are proved: (a) In a model obtained by adding aleph_2 Cohen reals, there is always a c.c.c. complete Boolean algebra without the weak Freese-Nation property. (b) Modulo the consistency strength of a supercompact…

We study a two-parameter generalization of the Freese-Nation Property of boolean algebras and its order-theoretic and topological consequences. For every regular infinite \kappa, the (\kappa,\kappa)-FN, the (\kappa^+,\kappa)-FN, and the…

In this paper, we introduce a very weak square principle which is even weaker than the similar principle introduced by Foreman and Magidor. A characterization of this principle is given in term of sequences of elementary submodels of…

We identify a large class of hyperbolic groups whose von Neumann algebras are not strongly 1-bounded: Sela's hyperbolic towers over $F_2$ subgroups. We also show that any intermediate subalgebra of the diagonal embedding of $L(F_2)$ into…

We give an equivalent, but simpler formulation of the axiom SEP introduced by Juhasz and Kunen. Our formulation shows that many of the consequences of the weak Freese-Nation Property of $\mathcal P(\omega)$ already follow from SEP. We show…

The aim of this paper is to study the class of spaces with the FNS property and $\pi-\FNS$ property. We shown that compact spaces with the FNS property for some base consisting of cozero-sets are openly generated spaces and spaces with the…

We study the interplay between properties of measures on a Boolean algebra A and forcing names for ultrafilters on A. We show that several well known measure theoretic properties of Boolean algebras (such as supporting a strictly positive…

We show that (with one possible exception) there exist strongly dense free subgroups in any semisimple algebraic group over a large enough field. These are nonabelian free subgroups all of whose subgroups are either cyclic or Zariski dense.…

We show that properties $F_n$ and $FP_n$ hold for a relatively hyperbolic group if and only if they hold for all the peripheral subgroups. As an application we show that there are at least countably many distinct quasi-isometry classes of…

We prove that relatively hyperbolic groups do not have Lafforgue strong Property $(T)$ with respect to Hilbert spaces. To do so we construct an unbounded affine representation of such groups, whose linear part is of polynomial growth of…

We show that the theories of partially ordered sets, lattices, semilattices, Boolean algebras, Heyting algebras with a further coarser partial order, or a linearization, or an auxiliary relation have the strong amalgamation property,…

T. Szarek [Stud. Math. 189 (2008), {\S} 4] have discussed the relationship between two important notions concerning Markov semigroups: the asymptotic strong Feller property and the e-property, asserting that the former property implies the…

In the early 1990s the works of Larson, Wogen and Argyros, Lambrou, Longstaff disclosed an example of a strong $M$-basis that did not admit a linear summation method. We study a class of $M$-bases $\mathfrak{F}=\{f_n\}_{n=1}^\infty$ in the…

We study when a group of form $G\times\mathbb{Z}^m (m\geq 1)$ has the finitely generated fixed subgroup property of automorphisms ($\rm{FGFP}_a$), by using the BNS-invariant, and provide some partial answers and non-trivial examples.

Let $S$ be an algebraic semigroup (not necessarily linear) defined over a field $F$. We show that there exists a positive integer $n$ such that $x^n$ belongs to a subgroup of $S(F)$ for any $x \in S(F)$. In particular, the semigroup $S(F)$…

This text takes, with more details and simplifying a proof in section 3, the parts of [Laf08] and [Laf09] treating p-adic groups. We prove that $SL_{3}$ over a non archimedian local field $F$ has strong Banach property (T). The applications…

We show that there is a restriction, or modification of the finite-variable fragments of First Order Logic in which a weak form of Craig's Interpolation Theorem holds, but a strong form of this theorem does not hold. Translating these…

We study the question which Boolean algebras have the property that for every generating set there is an ultrafilter selecting maximal number of its elements. We call it the ultrafilter selection property. For cardinality aleph-one the…

The aim of this note is to show that weak relative hyperbolicity of a group relative to a subgroup (or relative hyperbolicity in the sense of Farb) does not imply any natural analogues of some well-known algebraic properties of ordinary…
