This work presents a quantitative framework for describing the overcompleteness of a large class of frames. It introduces notions of localization and approximation between two frames $\mathcal{F} = \{f_i\}_{i \in I}$ and $\mathcal{E} =…
The geometric form of Hilbert's Nullstellensatz may be understood as a property of "geometric saturation" in algebraically closed fields. We conceptualise this property in the language of first order logic, following previous approaches and…
The Horn inequalities characterise the possible spectra of triples of $n$-by-$n$ Hermitian matrices $A+B=C$. We study integral inequalities that arise as limits of Horn inequalities as $n \to \infty$. These inequalities are parametrised by…
We combine two notions in AECs, tameness and good $\lambda$-frames, and show that they together give a very well-behaved nonforking notion in all cardinalities. This helps to fill a longstanding gap in classification theory of tame AECs and…
Let $\Gamma$ be an abelian group and $g \geq h \geq 2$ be integers. A set $A \subset \Gamma$ is a $C_h[g]$-set if given any set $X \subset \Gamma$ with $|X| = k$, and any set $\{ k_1 , \dots , k_g \} \subset \Gamma$, at least one of the…
We derive a new sufficient condition for the existence of {\omega}-categorical universal structures in classes of relational structures with constraints, augmenting results by Cherlin, Shelah, Chi, and Hubi\v{c}ka and Ne\v{s}et\v{r}il.…
An unpublished example due to Joe Harris from 1983 (or earlier) gave two smooth space curves with the same Hilbert function, but one of the curves was arithmetically Cohen-Macaulay (ACM) and the other was not. Starting with an arbitrary…
It is easy to see that every character (i.e. unital *-homomorphism to the complex numbers) of a commutative unital associative *-algebra is a pure state (i.e. extreme point in the convex set of all normalized positive linear functionals).…
A common criterion in the design of finite Hilbert space frames is minimal coherence, as this leads to error reduction in various signal processing applications. Frames that achieve minimal coherence relative to all unit-norm frames are…
We investigate the conditions that are sufficient to make the Ext-algebra of an object in a (triangulated) category into a Frobenius algebra and compute the corresponding Nakayama automorphism. As an application, we prove the conjecture…
We exhibit an equivalence between the model-theoretic framework of universal classes and the category-theoretic framework of locally multipresentable categories. We similarly give an equivalence between abstract elementary classes (AECs)…
In this paper we examine the task set forth by Shelah and Villaveces in \cite{ShVi} of proving the uniqueness of limit models of cardinality $\mu$ in $\lambda$-categorical abstract elementary classes with no maximal models, where $\lambda$…
The theory of regular model sets is highly developed, but does not cover examples such as the visible lattice points, the k-th power-free integers, or related systems. They belong to the class of weak model sets, where the window may have a…
For an algebraic number $\alpha$ we consider the orders of the reductions of $\alpha$ in finite fields. In the case where $\alpha$ is an integer, it is known by the work on Artin's primitive root conjecture that the order is "almost always…
We apply, in the context of semigroups, the main theorem from~\cite{higjac} that an elementary class $\mathcal{C}$ of algebras which is closed under the taking of direct products and homomorphic images is defined by systems of equations. We…
This paper introduces a SAT-based technique that calculates a compact and complete symmetry-break for finite model finding, with the focus on structures with a single binary operation (magmas). Classes of algebraic structures are typically…
We study the saturation properties of several classes of $C^*$-algebras. Saturation has been shown by Farah and Hart to unify the proofs of several properties of coronas of $\sigma$-unital $C^*$-algebras; we extend their results by showing…
In a classical paper by Ben-David and Magidor, a model of set theory was exhibited in which $\aleph_{\omega+1}$ carries a uniform ultrafilter that is $\theta$-indecomposable for every uncountable cardinal $\theta<\aleph_\omega$. In this…
For every algebraically closed field $\boldsymbol k$ of characteristic different from $2$, we prove the following: (1) Generic finite dimensional (not necessarily associative) $\boldsymbol k$-algebras of a fixed dimension, considered up to…
We give sufficent conditions for a derivation of a $k$-algebra $A$ of finite type to be $\infty$-integrable in the sense of Hasse-Schmidt, when $A$ is a complete intersection, or when $A$ is reduced and $k$ is a regular ring. As a…
