Musical chords, harmonies or melodies in Just Intonation have note frequencies which are described by a base frequency multiplied by rational numbers. For any local section, these notes can be converted to some base frequency multiplied by…
We consider decompositions of the real line into pairwise disjoint Borel pieces so that each piece is closed under addition. How many pieces can there be? We prove among others that the number of pieces is either at most 3 or uncountable,…
For cardinals $\mathfrak{a}$ and $\mathfrak{b}$, we write $\mathfrak{a}=^\ast\mathfrak{b}$ if there are sets $A$ and $B$ of cardinalities $\mathfrak{a}$ and $\mathfrak{b}$, respectively, such that there are partial surjections from $A$ onto…
Let f be a non-constant meromorphic function and a = a(z) be a small function of f. Under certain essential conditions, we obtained similar type conclusion of Bruck Conjecture, when f and its differential polynomial P[f] shares a with…
We prove that for any positive integer c there are at least N(c), $1\leq N(c) < \phi(c)/2$ representations of c as a sum of two positive integers a, b, with no common divisor, such that the N(c) radicals R(abc) are all greater than kc,…
In this paper, we consider certain cardinals in ZF (set theory without AC, the Axiom of Choice). In ZFC (set theory with AC), given any cardinals C and D, either C <= D or D <= C. However, in ZF this is no longer so. For a given infinite…
We construct an absolutely normal number whose continued fraction expansion is normal in the sense that it contains all finite patterns of partial quotients with the expected asymptotic frequency as given by the Gauss-Kuzmin measure. The…
We prove the consistency of: for suitable strongly inaccessible cardinal lambda the dominating number, i.e. the cofinality of lambda^lambda is strictly bigger than cov(meagre_lambda), i.e. the minimal number of nowhere dense subsets of…
In this article we investigate the dual-shattering cardinal H, the dual-splitting cardinal S and the dual-reaping cardinal R, which are dualizations of the well-known cardinals h (the shattering cardinal, also known as the distributivity…
We cardinally and ordinally rank distribution functions (CDFs). We present a new class of statistics, maximal adjusted quantiles, and show that a statistic is invariant with respect to cardinal shifts, preserves least upper bounds with…
Using a finite support iteration of ccc forcings, we construct a model of $\aleph_1<\mathrm{add}(\mathcal{N})<\mathrm{cov}(\mathcal{N})<\mathfrak{b}<\mathrm{non}(\mathcal{M})<\mathrm{cov}(\mathcal{M})=\mathfrak{c}$.
The collection of branches (maximal linearly ordered sets of nodes) of the tree ${}^{<\omega}\omega$ (ordered by inclusion) forms an almost disjoint family (of sets of nodes). This family is not maximal -- for example, any level of the tree…
A set theory is developed based on the approximations of sets and denoted by AS. In AS the set of all sets exists but the argument for Russell's and Cantor's paradox fail. The Axioms of Separation, Replacement and Foundation are not valid.…
We prove that the composition of a quasi-nearly subharmonic function and a quasiregular mappings of bounded multiplicity is quasi-nearly subharmonic. Also, we prove that if $u\circ f$ is quasi-nearly subharmonic for all quasi-nearly…
In [6], given a metrizable profinite group $G$, a cardinal invariant of the continuum $\mathfrak{fm}(G)$ was introduced, and a positive solution to the Haar Measure Problem for $G$ was given under the assumption that…
These are classified by the direction of approximation (from above or below), the set family types (partition or covering) of simple functions, the coefficient signature (non-negative or signed), and cardinal number of terms of simple…
We construct, under the assumption that union of less than continuum many meager subsets of R is meager in R, an additive connectivity function f:R-->R with Cantor intermediate value property which is not almost continuous. This gives a…
We introduce combinatorial principles that characterize strong compactness and supercompactness for inaccessible cardinals but also make sense for successor cardinals. Their consistency is established from what is supposedly optimal.…
We show that it is consistent that for some uncountable cardinal k, all compactifications of the countable discrete space with remainders homeomorphic to $D^k$ are homeomorphic to each other. On the other hand, there are $2^c$ pairwise…
Recently, in Axioms 10(2): 119 (2021), a nonclassical first-order theory T of sets and functions has been introduced as the collection of axioms we have to accept if we want a foundational theory for (all of) mathematics that is not weaker…
