We prove that the class of all ordinals Ord is not weakly compact with respect to definable classes. Specifically, in any model of ZFC, the definable tree property fails for Ord, in that there is a definable Ord tree with no definable…
We show that, up to Morita equivalence, any finite-dimensional algebra with a suitable homological system, admits an exact Borel subalgebra. This generalizes a theorem by Koenig, K\"ulshammer and Ovsienko, which holds for quasi-hereditary…
We prove that orbit equivalence relations (ERs, for brevity) of generically turbulent Polish actions are not Borel reducible to ER s of a family which includes Polish actions of S_\infty, the group of all permutations of N, and is closed…
In the first part of this article we prove that one of the conditions required in the original definition of nearly Frobenius algebra, the coassociativity, is redundant. Also, we determine the Frobenius dimension of the product and tensor…
There are familiar examples of computable structures having various computable Scott ranks. There are also familiar structures, such as the Harrison ordering, which have Scott rank $\omega_1^{CK}+1$. Makkai produced a structure of Scott…
In this paper we study the Borel reducibility of Borel equivalence relations, including some orbit equivalence relations, on the generalised Baire space $\kappa^\kappa$ for an uncountable $\kappa$ with the property…
A long standing open problem in the theory of hyperfinite equivalence relations asks if the orbit equivalence relation generated by a Borel action of a countable amenable group is hyperfinite. In this paper we prove that this question…
We study a uniform, quantitative form of the amenability-hyperfiniteness paradigm for bounded-degree Borel graphs generating countable Borel equivalence relations. We introduce \emph{uniform Borel amenability} and prove that it is…
Recent developments in the formalisation of quantum causal structures have made it possible to test and compare hypotheses about causal structure empirically, rather than being a-priori assumptions. Such differences in causal structure may…
We determine, up to the equivalence of first-order interdefinability, all structures which are first-order definable in the random partial order. It turns out that these structures fall into precisely five equivalence classes. We achieve…
We prove that many seemingly simple theories have Borel complete reducts. Specifically, if a countable theory has uncountably many complete 1-types, then it has a Borel complete reduct. Similarly, if $Th(M)$ is not small, then $M^{eq}$ has…
We study the first-order axiomatisability of finite semiring interpretations or, equivalently, the question whether elementary equivalence and isomorphism coincide for valuations of atomic facts over a finite universe into a commutative…
If $L$ is a relational language, an $L$-structure ${\mathbb X}$ is condensable to an $L$-structure ${\mathbb Y}$, we write ${\mathbb X} \preccurlyeq _c {\mathbb Y}$, iff there is a bijective homomorphism (condensation) from ${\mathbb X}$…
A forcing extension may create new isomorphisms between two models of a first order theory. Certain model theoretic constraints on the theory and other constraints on the forcing can prevent this pathology. A countable first order theory is…
We describe the countable ordinals in terms of iterations of Mostowski collapsings. This gives a proof-theoretic bound of definable countable ordinals in the Zermelo-Fraenkel's set theory ZF.
We study the complexity of the classification problem for countable models of set theory (ZFC). We prove that the classification of arbitrary countable models of ZFC is Borel complete, meaning that it is as complex as it can conceivably be.…
Let \alpha be a countable ordinal and \P(\alpha) the collection of its subsets isomorphic to \alpha. We show that the separative quotient of the set \P (\alpha) ordered by the inclusion is isomorphic to a forcing product of iterated reduced…
Cohesive powers of computable structures are effective analogs of ultrapowers, where cohesive sets play the role of ultrafilters. Let $\omega$, $\zeta$, and $\eta$ denote the respective order-types of the natural numbers, the integers, and…
Let $\Om$ be a Borel subset of $S^\Bbb N$ where $S$ is countable. A measure is called exchangeable on $\Om$, if it is supported on $\Om$ and is invariant under every Borel automorphism of $\Om$ which permutes at most finitely many…
We consider the problem of determining the complexity of the uniform homeomorphism relation between separable Banach spaces in the Borel reducibility hierarchy of analytic equivalence relations. We prove that the complete $K_{\sigma}$…
