In this paper we investigate some properties of forcing which can be considered "nice" in the context of singularizing regular cardinals to have an uncountable cofinality. We show that such forcing which changes cofinality of a regular…
In this paper we introduce and study the notion of dynamical forcing. Basically, we develop a toolkit of techniques to produce finitely presented groups which can only act on the circle with certain prescribed dynamical properties. As an…
Using forcing with measured creatures we build a universe of set theory in which: (a) every sup-measurable function f:RxR-->R is measurable, and (b) every function f:R-->R is continuous on a non-measurable set. This answers a question of…
We study a family of variants of Jensen's\emph{subcomplete forcing axiom}, $\mathsf{SCFA}$ and \emph{subproper forcing axiom}, $\mathsf{SubPFA}$. Using these we develop a general technique for proving non-implications of $\mathsf{SCFA}$,…
We construct a class of non-weight modules over the twisted $N=2$ superconformal algebra $\T$. Let $\mathfrak{h}=\C L_0\oplus\C G_0$ be the Cartan subalgebra of $\T$, and let $\mathfrak{t}=\C L_0$ be the Cartan subalgebra of even part…
We introduce an abstract framework for forcing over a free Suslin tree with suborders of products of forcings which add some structure to the tree using countable approximations. The main ideas of this framework are consistency, separation,…
We propose a novel algorithm to decide the language inclusion between (nondeterministic) B\"uchi automata, a PSPACE-complete problem. Our approach, like others before, leverage a notion of quasiorder to prune the search for a counterexample…
It is consistent (relative to ZFC) that the union of max{b,g} many families in the Baire space which are not finitely dominating is not dominating. In particular, it is consistent that for each nonprincipal ultrafilter U, the cofinality of…
We expand the results of Roslanowski and Shelah arXive:1806.06283 , arXive:1909.00937 to all perfect Abelian Polish groups $(H,+)$. In particular, we show that if $\alpha<\omega_1$ and $4\leq k<\omega$, then there is a ccc forcing notion…
We construct a countable simple theory which, in Keisler's order, is strictly above the random graph (but "barely so") and also in some sense orthogonal to the building blocks of the recently discovered infinite descending chain. As a…
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 define a new class of $Z'$ models with neutral flavor-changing interactions at tree level in the down-quark sector. They are related in an exact way to elements of the quark mixing matrix due to an underlying flavored $U(1)'$ gauge…
We demonstrate that theories $\text{Z}^-$, $\text{ZF}^-$, $\text{ZFC}^-$ (minus means the absence of the Power Set axiom) and $\text{PA}_2$, $\text{PA}_2^-$ (minus means the absence of the Countable Choice schema) are equiconsistent to each…
We consider decompositions of the real line into pairwise disjoint Borel pieces so that each piece is closed under addition. How many pieces can there be? We prove among others that the number of pieces is either at most 3 or uncountable,…
Let C subset Reg be a non-empty class (of regular cardinal). Then the logic L(Q^{cf}_C) has additional nice properties: it has homogeneous model existence property.
A classical theorem of Hechler asserts that the structure $\left(\omega^\omega,\le^*\right)$ is universal in the sense that for any $\sigma$-directed poset P with no maximal element, there is a ccc forcing extension in which…
Quantifier-free nonlinear arithmetic (QF_NRA) appears in many applications of satisfiability modulo theories solving (SMT). Accordingly, efficient reasoning for corresponding constraints in SMT theory solvers is highly relevant. We propose…
We bring forward a logical system of transition algebras that enhances many-sorted first-order logic using features from dynamic logics. The sentences we consider include compositions, unions, and transitive closures of transition…
In this paper we look at popular fairness methods that use causal counterfactuals. These methods capture the intuitive notion that a prediction is fair if it coincides with the prediction that would have been made if someone's race, gender…
We construct a mod $\ell$ congruence between a Klingen Eisenstein series (associated to a classical newform $\phi$ of weight $k$) and a Siegel cusp form $f$ with irreducible Galois representation. We use this congruence to show…
