In the absence of the Axiom of Choice, necessary and sufficient conditions for a locally compact Hausdorff space to have all non-empty second-countable compact Hausdorff spaces as remainders are given in $\mathbf{ZF}$. Among other…
Let I be a sigma-ideal sigma-generated by a projective collection of closed sets. The forcing with I-positive Borel sets is proper and adds a single real r of an almost minimal degree: if s is a real in V[r] then s is Cohen generic over V…
The structures $\langle M,\subseteq^M\rangle$ arising as the inclusion relation of a countable model of sufficient set theory $\langle M,\in^M\rangle$, whether well-founded or not, are all isomorphic. These structures $\langle…
We provide a counterexample to the Category Dichotomy in the framework of $\textsf{ZFC}$. That is, we prove the existence of an ideal on $\omega$ that is not Kat\v{e}tov below $\mathsf{nwd}$ and does not have restrictions above…
This article concerns the Herrlich-Chew theorem stating that a Hausdorff zero-dimensional space is $\mathbb{N}$-compact if and only if every clopen ultrafilter with the countable intersection property in this space is fixed. It also…
We prove a version of Shelah's Categoricity Conjecture for arbitrary deconstructible classes of modules. Moreover, we show that if $\mathcal{A}$ is a deconstructible class of modules that fits in an abstract elementary class…
It is shown that the existence of a measurable cardinal is equiconsistent to a model of ZFC in which there is no ordinal-definable, stationary, costationary subset of $\omega_1$
We use a generalization of a construction by Ziegler to show that for any field $F$ and any countable collection of countable subsets $A_i \subseteq F, i \in \calI \subset \Z_{>0}$ there exist infinitely many fields $K$ of arbitrary…
We explore the possibilities for elementary embeddings $j : M \to N$, where $M$ and $N$ are models of ZFC with the same ordinals, $M \subseteq N$, and $N$ has access to large pieces of $j$. We construct commuting systems of such maps…
We construct every finite-dimensional irreducible representation of the simple Lie algebra of type $\mathsf{E}_{7}$ whose highest weight is a nonnegative integer multiple of the dominant minuscule weight associated with the type…
We introduce joint exclusivity (JE), a form of extremal negative dependence that extends the classical notion of mutual exclusivity. The JE structure is analytically tractable and is defined by the exclusion of the interior of the…
Let $K$ be a number field and let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined and of rank one over $K$. For a set $\calW_K$ of primes of $K$, let $O_{K,\calW_K}=\{x\in K: \ord_{\pp}x \geq 0, \forall \pp \not \in \calW_K\}$. Let $P \in E(K)$ be a…
Theorem: There is a {\em complete sentence} $\phi$ of $L_{\omega_1,\omega}$ such that $\phi$ has maximal models in a set of cardinals $\lambda$ that is cofinal in the first measurable $\mu$ while $\phi$ has no maximal models in any $\chi…
We define a simple kind of higher inductive type generalising dependent $W$-types, which we refer to as $W$-types with reductions. Just as dependent $W$-types can be characterised as initial algebras of certain endofunctors (referred to as…
We show the consistency of ZFC +''there is no NWD-ultrafilter on omega'', which means: for every non principle ultrafilter D on the set of natural numbers, there is a function f from the set of natural numbers to the reals, such that for…
Assuming the consistency of $\mathsf{ZFC}$, we construct a model of set theory in which the boldface $\mathbf{\Sigma}^1_3$-uniformization property holds, yet the lightface $\Sigma^1_4$-uniformization property fails, separating these two…
According to a theorem due to Kenneth Kunen, under ZFC, there is no ordinal $\lambda$ and non-trivial elementary embedding $j:V_{\lambda+2}\to V_{\lambda+2}$. His proof relied on the Axiom of Choice (AC), and no proof from ZF alone has been…
We investigate the asymptotic densities of theorems provable in Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory ZF and its extension ZFC including the axiom of choice. Assuming a canonical De Bruijn representation of formulae, we construct asymptotically large…
In this paper we consider a general way of constructing profinite struc- tures based on a given framework - a countable family of objects and a countable family of recognisers (e.g. formulas). The main theorem states: A subset of a family…
This paper addresses several questions of Feng, Gruenhage, and Shen which arose from Michael's theory of continuous selections from countable spaces. We construct an example of a space which is $L$-selective but not $\mathbb{Q}$-selective…
