We locate winning strategies for various Sigma^0_3-games in the L-hierarchy in order to prove that Sigma^0_3 Determinacy is intermediate between Pi^1_3-CA_0 (even Pi^1_2-CA_0 (lightface) with Pi^1_3-lightface definable parameters allowed)…
It is known that several variations of the axiom of determinacy play important roles in the study of reverse mathematics, and the relation between the hierarchy of determinacy and comprehension are revealed by Tanaka, Nemoto, Montalb\'an,…
In this paper the lightface $\Pi^{1}_{1}$-Comprehension axiom is shown to be proof-theoretically strong even over $\mbox{RCA}_{0}^{*}$, and we calibrate the proof-theoretic ordinals of weak fragments of the theory $\mbox{ID}_{1}$ of…
The determinacy of lightface $\Delta^1_{2n+2}$ and boldface $\boldsymbol{\Pi}^1_{2n+1}$ sets implies the existence of an $(\omega, \omega_1)$-iterable $M_{2n+1}^{\#}$.
It is well known that the graph of a total $\mathbf{\Sigma}^1_n$-function is $\mathbf{\Pi}^1_n$. We prove the consistency of the dual assertion at the third projective level: there is a model of $\ZFC$ in which the graph of every total…
Assuming the consistency of $\mathsf{ZFC}$, we construct a model of set theory in which the boldface $\mathbf{\Sigma}^1_3$-uniformization property holds, yet the lightface $\Sigma^1_4$-uniformization property fails, separating these two…
We show that there are models of MA where the boldface $\Sigma^1_3$-uniformization property holds. Further we show that BPFA and the assertion $\aleph_1$ is accessible to reals outright implies that the boldface $\Sigma^1_3$-uniformization…
We show that many principles of first-order arithmetic, previously only known to lie strictly between $\Sigma_1$-induction and $\Sigma_2$-induction, are equivalent to the well-foundedness of $\omega^\omega$. Among these principles are the…
We show that the theory $I\Sigma_1$ of $\Sigma_1$-induction proves the following statement: For all $n\geq 2$, the uniform $\Sigma_1$-reflection principle over the theory $I\Sigma_n$ is equivalent to the totality of the function…
We examine recursive monotonic functions on the Lindenbaum algebra of $\mathsf{EA}$. We prove that no such function sends every consistent $\varphi$ to a sentence with deductive strength strictly between $\varphi$ and…
Walsh [MR4525964, Zbl 1569.03151] has shown that comparing proof-theoretic ordinals is equivalent to comparing $\Pi^1_1$-consequence comparison and $\Pi^1_1$-reflection comparison, all modulo true $\Sigma^1_1$-sentences. In this paper, we…
In \cite{MV} we defined and proved the consistency of the principle ${\rm GM}^+(\omega_3,\omega_1)$ which implies that many consequences of strong forcing axioms hold simultaneously at $\omega_2$ and $\omega_3$. In this paper we formulate a…
We generically construct a model in which the $\bf{\Sigma^1_3}$-separation property is true, i.e. every pair of disjoint $\bf{\Sigma^1_3}$-sets can be separated by a $\bf{\Delta^1_3}$-definable set. This answers an old question from the…
Let $f:\mathbb{C}\rightarrow \mathbb{R}^3$ be complete Willmore immersion with $\int_{\Sigma}|A_f|^2<+\infty$. We will show that if $f$ is the limit of an embedded surface sequence, then $f$ is a plane. As an application, we prove that if…
In this paper, we prove the following: If $n\ge3$, there is a generic extension of $L$ -- the constructible universe -- in which it is true that the Separation principle holds for both effective (lightface) classes $\varSigma^1_n$ and…
Let Pi and Gamma be homogeneous Poisson point processes on a fixed set of finite volume. We prove a necessary and sufficient condition on the two intensities for the existence of a coupling of Pi and Gamma such that Gamma is a deterministic…
We show that one can force over $L$ that $\Sigma^1_3$-separation holds, while $\Pi^1_3$-reduction fails, thus separating these two principles for the first time. The construction can be lifted to canonical inner models $M_n$ with $n$-many…
We prove the following result which is due to the third author. Let $n \geq 1$. If $\boldsymbol\Pi^1_n$ determinacy and $\Pi^1_{n+1}$ determinacy both hold true and there is no $\boldsymbol\Sigma^1_{n+2}$-definable $\omega_1$-sequence of…
In this paper we develop a technique for proving determinacy of classes of the form $\omega^2-\Pi^1_1+\Gamma$ (a refinement of the difference hierarchy on the co-analytic sets lying between $\omega^2-\Pi^1_1$ and $(\omega^2+1)-\Pi^1_1$)…
We construct a generic extension of $L$ satisfying Martin's Axiom, $2^{\aleph_0}=\aleph_3$, a lightface $\Delta^1_3$ wellorder of the reals, and $\Sigma^1_n$-uniformization for every $n\geq 2$ simultaneously.
