For which infinite cardinals $\kappa$ is there a partition of the real line $\mathbb R$ into precisely $\kappa$ Borel sets? Hausdorff famously proved that there is a partition of $\mathbb R$ into $\aleph_1$ Borel sets. But other than this,…

Two structures are said to be equimorphic if each embeds in the other. Such structures cannot be expected to be isomorphic, and in this paper we investigate the special case of linear orders, here also called chains. In particular we…

A famous result due to Lov\'{a}sz states that two finite relational structures $M$ and $N$ are isomorphic if, and only if, for all finite relational structures $T$, the number of homomorphisms from $T$ to $M$ is equal to the number of…

An order-theoretic forest is a countable partial order such that the set of elements larger than any element is linearly ordered. It is an order-theoretic tree if any two elements have an upper-bound. The order type of a branch can be any…

We show that Morley's theorem on the number of countable models of a countable first-order theory becomes an undecidable statement when extended to second-order logic. More generally, we calculate the number of equivalence classes of…

An algebraically exact category in one that admits all of the limits and colimits which every variety of algebras possesses and every forgetful functor between varieties preserves, and which verifies the same interactions between these…

In this article we treat a notion of continuity for a multi-valued function F and we compute the descriptive set-theoretic complexity of the set of all x for which F is continuous at x. We give conditions under which the latter set is…

We propound the thesis that there is a limitation to the number of possible structures which are axiomatically endowed with identities involving operations. In the case of algebras with a binary operation satisfying a formally reducible (to…

We introduce notions of stationarily ordered types and theories; the latter generalizes weak o-minimality and the first is a relaxed version of weak o-minimality localized at the locus of a single type. We show that forking, as a binary…

We show that if $E$ is a countable Borel equivalence relation on $\mathbb{R}^n$, then there is a closed subset $A \subset [0,1]^n$ of Hausdorff dimension $n$ so that $E \restriction A$ is smooth. More generally, if $\leq_Q$ is a locally…

This paper studies tree-automatic ordinals (or equivalently, well-founded linearly ordered sets) together with the ordinal addition operation +. Informally, these are ordinals such that their elements are coded by finite trees for which the…

We prove completeness, interpolation and omitting types for certain predicate topological logics that properly extend the first order case. We aslo count the non isomorphic topological models of a countable theory

A system of linear equations $L$ is said to be norming if a natural functional $t_L(\cdot)$ giving a weighted count for the set of solutions to the system can be used to define a norm on the space of real-valued functions on…

We investigate $\mathcal F$-Borel topological spaces. We focus on finding out how a~complexity of a~space depends on where the~space is embedded. Of a~particular interest is the~problem of determining whether a~complexity of given space $X$…

For any first order theory T we construct a Boolean valued model M, in which precisely the T--provable formulas hold, and in which every (Boolean valued) subset which is invariant under all automorphisms of M is definable by a first order…

A logic is said to admit an equational completeness theorem when it can be interpreted into the equational consequence relative to some class of algebras. We characterize logics admitting an equational completeness theorem that are either…

A computable structure $\mathcal{A}$ has degree of categoricity $\mathbf{d}$ if $\mathbf{d}$ is exactly the degree of difficulty of computing isomorphisms between isomorphic computable copies of $\mathcal{A}$. Fokina, Kalimullin, and Miller…

We say that a finite almost simple $G$ with socle $S$ is admissible (with respect to the spectrum) if $G$ and $S$ have the same sets of orders of elements. Let $L$ be a finite simple linear or unitary group of dimension at least three over…

We consider classification problems for manifolds and discrete subgroups of Lie groups from a descriptive set-theoretic point of view. This work is largely foundational in conception and character, recording both a framework for general…

Let $\mathbb{A} = (A, \cdot)$ be a semigroup. We generalize some recent results by G. A. Freiman, M. Herzog and coauthors on the structure theory of set addition from the context of linearly orderable groups to linearly orderable…
