We use trace class scattering theory to exclude the possibility of absolutely continuous spectrum in a large class of self-adjoint operators with an underlying hierarchical structure and provide applications to certain random hierarchical…
Large cardinals arising from the existence of arbitrarily long end elementary extension chains over models of set theory are studied here. In particular, we show that the large cardinals obtained that way (`Unfoldable cardinals') behave as…
We show that in Zermelo-Fraenkel Set Theory without the Axiom of Choice a surjectively modified continuum function $\theta(\kappa)$ can take almost arbitrary values for all infinite cardinals. This choiceless version of Easton's Theorem is…
It is shown that the consistency strength of ZF + DC + "the closed unbounded ultrafilter on omega_1 is an ultrafilter" is exactly ZFC + one measurable cardinal.
Hyperuniform structures possess the ability to confine and drive light, although their fabrication is extremely challenging. Here we demonstrate that speckle patters obtained by a superposition of randomly arranged sources of Bessel beams…
Let omega be the first infinite ordinal (or the set of all natural numbers) with the usual order <. In section 1 we show that, assuming the consistency of a supercompact cardinal, there may exist an ultrapower of omega, whose cardinality is…
When modeling directional data, that is, unit-norm multivariate vectors, a first natural question is to ask whether the directions are uniformly distributed or, on the contrary, whether there exist modes of variation significantly different…
It was recently shown that arbitrary first-order models canonically extend to models (of the same language) consisting of ultrafilters. The main precursor of this construction was the extension of semigroups to semigroups of ultrafilters, a…
We extend a theorem by Juh\'asz and Szentmikl\'ossy to notions related to pseudocompactness. We also allow the case when one of the cardinals under consideration is singular. We give an application to the study of decomposable ultrafilters:…
We unveil instances where nonautonomous linear systems manifest distinct nonuniform $\mu$-dichotomy spectra despite admitting nonuniform $(\mu, \varepsilon)$-kinematic similarity. Exploring the theoretical foundations of this lack of…
In this paper spectral theorems for not necessarily continuous normal and self-adjoint random operators on a complex separable Hilbert space are proved.
Based upon the axiom of choice it is proved that the cardinality of the rational numbers is not less than the cardinality of the irrational numbers. This contradicts a main result of transfinite set theory and shows that the axiom of choice…
We develop the theory of cofinal types of ultrafilters over measurable cardinals and establish its connections to Galvin's property. We generalize fundamental results from the countable to the uncountable, but often in surprisingly…
We consider the problem of enumerating permutations in the symmetric group on $n$ elements which avoid a given set of consecutive pattern $S$, and in particular computing asymptotics as $n$ tends to infinity. We develop a general method…
In this paper, we investigate the relationship between the Tukey order and PCF theory, as applied to sets of regular cardinals. We show that it is consistent that for all sets $A$ of regular cardinals that the Tukey spectrum of $A$, denoted…
We mainly investigate model of set theory with restricted choice, e.g., ZF + DC + "the family of countable subsets of lambda is well ordered for every lambda" (really local version for a given lambda). In this frame much of pcf theory can…
Recent work on the use of dimensional reduction for the regularisation of non--supersymmetric theories is reviewed. It is then shown that there exists a class of theories for which a universal form of the soft supersymmetry breaking terms…
A variety of classes of naturally arising ultrafilters on omega is discussed, and the question is raised whether it is consistent that the classes are empty. Since all the classes contain the P-point ultrafilters, a negative answer would…
Given an ordered structure, we study a natural way to extend the order to preorders on type spaces. For definably complete, linearly ordered structures, we give a characterisation of the preorder on the space of 1-types. We apply these…
For any vector bundle, we define an inverse system of spectra. In the case of a trivial bundle over a point, the homotopy groups of the filtration quotients give rise to the stable EHP spectral sequence, as was shown by Mahowald. The limit…
