Let $X$ and $Y$ be spaces and $M$ be an abelian group. A homotopy invariant $f\colon [X,Y]\to M$ is called straight if there exists a homomorphism $F\colon L(X,Y)\to M$ such that $f([a])=F(\langle a\rangle)$ for all $a\in C(X,Y)$. Here…

Inspired by Owings's problem, we investigate whether, for a given an Abelian group $G$ and cardinal numbers $\kappa,\theta$, every colouring $c:G\longrightarrow\theta$ yields a subset $X\subseteq G$ with $|X|=\kappa$ such that $X+X$ is…

We show that Cayley graphs of finitely generated Abelian groups are rather rigid. As a consequence we obtain that two finitely generated Abelian groups admit isomorphic Cayley graphs if and only if they have the same rank and their torsion…

In a sufficiently rich category, such as a category of R-modules, and a given infinite cardinal $\kappa$, we examine classes $\Cal H^\kappa_*$ of objects M, such that the following natural monomorphism is an isomorphism: $$\prod_{i\in…

Given an arbitrary measurable cardinal $\kappa$, a nondiscrete Hausdorff extremally disconnected topological group of cardinality $\kappa$ is constructed.

The main result is Theorem: Let A be an R-algebra, mu, lambda be cardinals such that |A|<=mu=mu^{aleph_0}<lambda<=2^mu. If A is aleph_0-cotorsion-free or A is countably free, respectively, then there exists an aleph_0-cotorsion-free or a…

A ccc-generically supercompact cardinal $\kappa$ can be smaller than or equal to the continuum. On the other hand, such a cardinal $\kappa$ still satisfies diverse largeness properties, like that it is a stationary limit of ccc-generically…

For an uncountable regular cardinal \kappa we let \nabla_\kappa(A) be the statement that A \subset \kappa and for all regular \theta > \kappa, the set of all X \in [\theta]^<\kappa such that X \cap \kappa \in \kappa and otp(X \cap OR) is a…

Let $S$ be a non-empty finite set. A flag of $S$ is a set $f$ of non-empty proper subsets of $S$ such that $X\subseteq Y$ or $Y\subseteq X$ for all $X,Y\in f$. The set $\{|X|:X\in f\}$ is called the type of $f$. Two flags $f$ and $f'$ are…

A ballean is a set $X$ endowed with some family $\F$ of its subsets, called the balls, in such a way that $(X,\F)$ can be considered as an asymptotic counterpart of a uniform topological space. Given a cardinal $\kappa$, we define $\F$…

We show that, assuming GCH, if $\kappa$ is a Ramsey or a strongly Ramsey cardinal and $F$ is a class function on the regular cardinals having a closure point at $\kappa$ and obeying the constraints of Easton's theorem, namely,…

Let $\Gamma=\mathrm{Cay}(G,S)$ be a Cayley digraph on a group $G$ and let $A=\mathrm{Aut}(\Gamma)$. The Cayley index of $\Gamma$ is $|A:G|$. It has previously been shown that, if $p$ is a prime, $G$ is a cyclic $p$-group and $A$ contains a…

A result of G. Godefroy asserts that a Banach space $X$ contains an isomorphic copy of $\ell_1$ if and only if there is an equivalent norm $|||\cdot|||$ such that, for every finite-dimensional subspace $Y$ of $X$ and every $\varepsilon>0$,…

Motivated by recent results and questions of D. Raghavan and S. Shelah, we present ZFC theorems on the bounding and various almost disjointness numbers, as well as on reaping and dominating families on uncountable, regular cardinals. We…

A group $G$ is J\'onsson if $|H| < |G|$ whenever $H$ is a proper subgroup of $G$. Using an embedding theorem of Obraztsov it is shown that there exists a J\'onsson group $G$ of infinite cardinality $\kappa$ if and only if there exists a…

We study connections between definability in generalized descriptive set theory and large cardinals, under ZFC. We show that if $\kappa$ is a limit of measurables then there is no wellorder of a subset of $P(\kappa)$ of length…

For $G$ a finite group, let $\kappa(G)$ be the probability that $\sigma,\tau\in G$ are conjugate, when $\sigma$ and $\tau$ are chosen independently and uniformly at random. In this paper, we extend the methods of Blackburn et al [2012] to…

We prove that for infinite cardinals $\kappa<\lambda$ the alternating group $Alt(\lambda)$ (of even permutations) of $\lambda$ is not embeddable into the symmetric group $Sym(\kappa)$ (of all permutations) of $\kappa$. To prove this fact we…

Let $G = H\times A$ be a group, where $H$ is a purely non-abelian subgroup of $G$ and $A$ is a non-trivial abelian factor of $G$. Then, for $n \geq 2$, we show that there exists an isomorphism $\phi : Aut_{Z(G)}^{\gamma_{n}(G)}(G)…

We investigate the provability of classical combinatorial theorems in ZF. Using combinatorial arguments, we establish the following results for each infinite cardinal ${\kappa}\in On$, (1) ${\kappa}^+\to ({\kappa},{\omega}+1)$, (2) any…
