We study possible Scott sentence complexities of linear orderings using two approaches. First, we investigate the effect of the Friedman-Stanley embedding on Scott sentence complexity and show that it only preserves…

It is well-known that the first order Peano axioms PA have a continuum of non-isomorphic countable models. The question, how close to being isomorphic such countable models can be, seems to be less investigated. A measure of closeness to…

We prove that for lambda = beta_omega or just lambda strong limit singular of cofinality aleph_0, if there is a universal member in the class K^lf_lambda of locally finite groups of cardinality lambda, then there is a canonical one…

We generalize the Hart-Shelah example \cite{HaSh:323} to higher infinitary logics. We build, for each natural number $k\geq 2$ and for each infinite cardinal $\lambda$, a sentence $\psi_k^\lambda$ of the logic $L_{(2^\lambda)^+,\omega}$…

Let $f:\mathbb{Z}\longrightarrow \{ \times \cdot\}$ be a function such that $f(a) = \cdot$ for all except finitely for many $a \in \mathbb{Z}$. We define a set $\flat f$ of non-intersecting arc (or cap) diagrams satisfying certain…

We study two complexity notions of groups - a computable Scott sentence and the index set of a group. Finding the exact complexity of one of them usually involves finding the complexity of the other, but this is not the case sometimes. J.…

We show that all sufficiently nice $\lambda$-sets are countable dense homogeneous ($\mathsf{CDH}$). From this fact we conclude that for every uncountable cardinal $\kappa \le \mathfrak{b}$ there is a countable dense homogeneous metric space…

The {\em Singular Cardinal Hypothesis} (SCH) is one of the most classical combinatorial principles in set theory. It says that if $\kappa$ is singular strong limit, then $2^{\kappa}=\kappa^+$. We prove that given a singular cardinal…

Within the framework of computable infinitary continuous logic, we develop a system of hyperarithmetic numerals. These numerals are infinitary sentences in a metric language $L$ that have the same truth value in every interpretation of $L$.…

We give a notion of Scott rank for separable metric structures based on the definability of the (metric closures of) automorphism orbits in continuous infinitary logic. This is a continuous analogue of work of Montalb\'an for countable…

We obtain a computable structure of Scott rank omega_1^{CK} (call this ock), and give a general coding procedure that transforms any hyperarithmetical structure A into a computable structure A' such that the rank of A is ock, ock+1, or <…

Canonical Huffman code is an optimal prefix-free compression code whose codewords enumerated in the lexicographical order form a list of binary words in non-decreasing lengths. Gagie et al. (2015) gave a representation of this coding…

The $\omega$-power of a finitary language L over a finite alphabet $\Sigma$ is the language of infinite words over $\Sigma$ defined by L $\infty$ := {w 0 w 1. .. $\in$ $\Sigma$ $\omega$ | $\forall$i $\in$ $\omega$ w i $\in$ L}. The…

We prove that every abstract elementary class (a.e.c.) with LST number $\kappa$ and vocabulary $\tau$ of cardinality $\leq \kappa$ can be axiomatized in the logic ${\mathbb L}_{\beth_2(\kappa)^{+++},\kappa^+}(\tau)$. In this logic an a.e.c.…

The aim of this paper is to consider questions concerning the possible maximum cardinality of various separable pseudoradial (in short: SP) spaces. The most intriguing question here is if there is, in ZFC, a regular (or just Hausdorff) SP…
