We prove that the problem of deciding the consequence relation of the full Lambek calculus with weakening is complete for the class HAck of hyper-Ackermannian problems (i.e., level F_{\omega}^{\omega} of the ordinal-indexed hierarchy of…
For substructural logics with contraction or weakening admitting cut-free sequent calculi, proof search was analyzed using well-quasi-orders on $\mathbb{N}^d$ (Dickson's lemma), yielding Ackermannian upper bounds via controlled bad-sequence…
In a recent paper ([1],[2]) we have classified explicitely all the unitary highest weight representations of non compact real forms of semisimple Lie Algebras on Hermitian symmetric space. These results are necessary in order to construct…
Representation theorems relate seemingly complex objects to concrete, more tractable ones. In this paper, we take advantage of the abstraction power of category theory and provide a general representation theorem for a wide class of…
Under $\mathfrak{p} = \mathfrak{c}$, we answer Question 24 of \cite{dikranjan&shakhmatov3} for cardinality ${\mathfrak c}$ , by showing that if a non-torsion Abelian group of size continuum admits a countably compact Hausdorff group…
We give a lower bound for the exponent of certain elements in the integral cohomology of the total spaces of principal BC-bundles for C a finite cyclic group. As applications we give a proof of the theorem of A. Adem and H.-W. Henn that a…
Recent works have explored the use of counting queries coupled with Description Logic ontologies. The answer to such a query in a model of a knowledge base is either an integer or $\infty$, and its spectrum is the set of its answers over…

We construct a special type of antichain (i. e., a family of subsets of a set, such that no subset is contained in another) using group-theoretical considerations, and obtain an upper bound on the cardinality of such an antichain. We apply…
The work presents the brief exposition of the proof (in ZF) of inaccessible cardinals nonexistence. To this end in view there is used the apparatus of subinaccessible cardinals and its basic tools -- reduced formula spectra and matrices and…
Using an infinitary version of the Hypergraph Removal Lemma due to Towsner, we prove a model-theoretic higher amalgamation result. In particular, we obtain an independent amalgamation property which holds in structures which are measurable…
We produce a model where every supercompact cardinal is $C^{(1)}$-supercompact with inaccessible targets. This is a significant improvement of the main identity-crises configuration obtained in \cite{HMP} and provides a definitive answer to…
The title theorem is proved by example: an algebra of binary relations, closed under intersection and composition, that is not isomorphic to any such algebra on a finite set.
We prove that a variety of generalized cardinal characteristics, including meeting numbers, the reaping number, and the dominating number, satisfy an analogue of the Galvin-Hajnal theorem, and hence also of Silver's theorem, at singular…
Given a subset $A\times B$ of a locally convex space $X\times Y$ (with $A$ compact) and a function $f:A\times B\rightarrow\overline{\mathbb{R}}$ such that $f(\cdot,y),$ $y\in B,$ are concave and upper semicontinuous, the minimax inequality…
A condition, in two variants, is given such that if a property P satisfies this condition, then every logic which is at least as strong as first-order logic and can express P fails to have the compactness property. The result is used to…
In this paper we prove theorems that describe how the representation theory of the affine Hecke algebra of type A and of related algebras such as the group algebra of the symmetric group are controlled by integrable highest weight…
Suppose $k$ is a positive integer and $\mathcal{X}$ is a $k$-fold packing of the plane by infinitely many arc-connected compact sets, which means that every point of the plane belongs to at most $k$ sets. Suppose there is a function…
We prove the following two results. Theorem A: Let alpha be a limit ordinal. Suppose that 2^{|alpha|}<aleph_alpha and 2^{|alpha|^+}<aleph_{|alpha|^+}, whereas aleph_alpha^{|alpha|}>aleph_{|alpha|^+}. Then for all n< omega and for all…
We decompose the adjoint representation of $\mathfrak{sl}_{r+1}=\mathfrak {sl}_{r+1}(\mathbb C)$ by a purely combinatorial approach based on the introduction of a certain subset of the Weyl group called the \emph{Weyl alternation set}…
