Continuous mappings between compact Hausdorff spaces can be studied using homomorphisms between algebraic structures (lattices, Boolean algebras) associated with the spaces. This gives us more tools with which to tackle problems about these…

We compare two different notions of generic expansions of countable saturated structures. One kind of genericity is related to model-companions and to amalgamation constructions \'a la Hrushovski-Fra\"iss\'e. Another notion of generic…

Let p=tp(a/A) be a stationary type in an arbitrary finite rank stable theory, and P an A-invariant family of partial types. The following property is introduced and characterised: whenever c is definable over (A,a) and a is not algebraic…

We study general nilpotent algebras. The results obtained are new even for the classical algebras, such as associative or Lie algebras. We single out certain generic properties of finite-dimensional algebras, mostly over infinite fields.…

Tarski gave a general semantics for deductive reasoning: a formula a may be deduced from a set A of formulas iff a holds in all models in which each of the elements of A holds. A more liberal semantics has been considered: a formula a may…

In this paper I consider locally finite Lie algebras of characteristic zero satisfying the condition that for every finite number of elements $x_{1}, x_{2},..., x_{k}$ of such an algebra $L$ there is finite-dimensional subalgebra $A$ which…

Let A be a finite alphabet and let L contained in (A*)^n be an n-variable language over A. We say that L is regular if it is the language accepted by a synchronous n-tape finite state automaton, it is quasi-regular if it is accepted by an…

We generalize Hrushovski's group configuration theorem to the case where the type of the configuration is generically stable, without assuming tameness of the ambient theory. The properties of generically stable types, which we recall in…

We study locally finite varieties (=primitive classes) of linear algebras over finite fields. We do not assume that our algebras are associative or Lie. We are interested in the basic properties of finite algebras in these varieties such…

We start the general structure theory of not necessarily semisimple finite tensor categories, generalizing the results in the semisimple case (i.e. for fusion categories), obtained recently in our joint work with D.Nikshych. In particular,…

We investigate structural implications arising from the condition that a given directed graph does not interpret, in the sense of primitive positive interpretation with parameters or orbits, every finite structure. Our results generalize…

We prove that the theory of the models constructible using finitely many cofinality quantifiers - $C_{\lambda_{1},...,\lambda_{n}}^{*}$ and $C_{<\lambda_{1},...,<\lambda_{n}}^{*}$ for $\lambda_{1},...,\lambda_{n}$ regular cardinals - is…

We present a new notion of non-positively curved groups: the collection of discrete countable groups acting (AU-)acylindrically on finite products of $\delta$-hyperbolic spaces with general type factors. Inspired by the classical theory of…

Spencer and Shelah [ShSp:304] constructed for each irrational alpha between 0 and 1 the theory T^alpha as the almost sure theory of random graphs with edge probability n^{- alpha}. In [BlSh:528] we proved that this was the same theory as…

We introduce the concept of topological finite-determinacy for germs of analytic functions within a fixed ideal $I$, which provides a notion of topological finite-determinacy of functions with non-isolated singularities. We prove the…

We study quasiminimal classes, i.e. abstract elementary classes (AECs) that arise from a quasiminimal pregeometry structure. For these classes, we develop an independence notion, and in particular, a theory of independence in $\M^{eq}$. We…

We study the theory of a Hilbert space H as a module for a unital C*-algebra A from the point of view of continuous logic. We give an explicit axiomatization for this theory and describe the structure of all the representations which are…

We reformulate Hrushovski's definability patterns from the setting of first order logic to the setting of positive logic. Given an h-universal theory T we put two structures on the type spaces of models of T in two languages, \mathcal{L}…

For several instances of metric largeness like enlargeability or having hyperspherical universal covers, we construct non-large vector subspaces in the rational homology of finitely generated groups. The functorial properties of this…

For a complete, stable theory $T$ we construct, in a reasonably canonical way, a related stable theory $T^*$ which has higher independent amalgamation properties over the algebraic closure of the empty-set. The theory $T^*$ is an algebraic…
