We extend the class of ultrafilters $U$ over countable sets for which $U\cdot U\equiv_T U$, extending several results from \cite{Dobrinen/Todorcevic11}. In particular, we prove that for each countable ordinal $\alpha\geq 2$, the generic…

Let $u$ be either a second eigenfunction of the fractional $p$-Laplacian or a least energy nodal solution of the equation $(-\Delta)^s_p \, u = f(u)$ with superhomogeneous and subcritical nonlinearity $f$, in a bounded open set $\Omega$ and…

We are interested in generalizing part of the theory of ultrafilters on omega to larger cardinals. Here we set the scene for further investigations introducing properties of ultrafilters in strong sense dual to being normal.

Let $n$ be any positive integer and $\mathscr{I\!\!P\!F}(\mathbb{N}^n)$ be the semigroup of all order isomorphisms between principal filters of the $n$-th power of the set of positive integers $\mathbb{N}$ with the product order. We study…

In a previous paper, the authors studied the radical filtration of a Weyl module $\Delta_\zeta(\lambda)$ for quantum enveloping algebras $U_\zeta(\overset\circ{\mathfrak g})$ associated to a finite dimensional complex semisimple Lie algebra…

A set A of natural numbers is finitely embeddable in another such set B if every finite subset of A has a rightward translate that is a subset of B. This notion of finite embeddability arose in combinatorial number theory, but in this paper…

We continue our study of the class $\mathscr{C}(D)$, where $D$ is a uniform ultrafilter on a cardinal $\kappa$ and $\mathscr{C}(D)$ is the class of all pairs $(\theta_1, \theta_2),$ where $(\theta_1, \theta_2)$ is the cofinality of a cut in…

We prove that every MAD family can be destroyed by a proper forcing that preserves $P$-points. With this result, we prove that it is consistent that $\omega_{1}=\mathfrak{u}<\mathfrak{a,}$ solving a nearly 20 year old problem of Shelah and…

For a free filter $F$ on $\omega$, let $N_F=\omega\cup\{p_F\}$, where $p_F\not\in\omega$, be equipped with the following topology: every element of $\omega$ is isolated whereas all open neighborhoods of $p_F$ are of the form $A\cup\{p_F\}$…

The existence of positive solutions is considered for the Dirichlet problem \[ \left\{ \begin{array} [c]{rcll}% -\Delta_{p}u & = & \lambda\omega_{1}(x)\left\vert u\right\vert ^{q-2}% u+\beta\omega_{2}(x)\left\vert u\right\vert…

Let G be a semi-simple Lie group and Q a parabilic subgroup of its complexification G^\mathbb C, then Z:=G^\mathbb C/Q is a compact complex homogeneous manifold. Moreover, G as well as K^\mathbb C, the complexification of the maximal…

Under CH we prove that for any tall ideal $\cal I$ on $\omega$ and for any ordinal $\gamma \leq \omega_1$ there is an ${\cal I}$-ultrafilter (in the sense of Baumgartner), which belongs to the class ${\cal P}_{\gamma}$ of P-hierarchy of…

It is shown in this paper that two positive elements of a C*-algebra agree on all lower semicontinuous traces if and only if they are equivalent in the sense of Cuntz and Pedersen. A similar result is also obtained in the more general case…

Henle, Mathias, and Woodin proved that, provided that $\omega\rightarrow(\omega)^{\omega}$ holds in a model $M$ of ZF, then forcing with $([\omega]^{\omega},\subseteq^*)$ over $M$ adds no new sets of ordinals, thus earning the name a…

We study varieties of certain ordered $\Sigma$-algebras with restricted completeness and continuity properties. We give a general characterization of their free algebras in terms of submonads of the monad of $\Sigma$-coterms. Varieties of…

We consider semiflows in general Banach spaces motivated by monotone cyclic feedback systems or differential equations with integer-valued Lyapunov functionals. These semiflows enjoy strong monotonicity properties with respect to cones of…

We introduce axiomatically the ring $\bf{Z}_\kappa$ of the Euclidean integers, that can be viewed as the ``integral part" of the field $\mathbb{E}$ of Euclidean numbers of [4], where the transfinite sum of ordinal indexed $\kappa$-sequences…

In this paper, we investigate the poset $\mathbf{OF}(X)$ of free open filters on a given space $X$. In particular, we characterize spaces for which $\mathbf{OF}(X)$ is a lattice. For each $n\in\mathbb{N}$ we construct a scattered space $X$…

Let $U$ be an absolute ultrafilter on the set of non-negative integers $\mathbb{N}$. For any sequence $x=(x_n)_{n\geq 0}$ of real numbers, let $U(x)$ denote the topological filter consisting of the open sets $W$ of $\mathbb{R}$ with $\{n…

This short note contains the proofs of two small but somewhat surprising results about ultrafilters on $\mathbb{N}$: 1. strongly summable ultrafilters are rapid, 2. every rapid ultrafilter induces a closed left ideal of rapid ultrafilters.…
