We utilize the same technique as in [arXiv:2205.04254 (2022)] to provide some representations of polynomials non-negative on a basic semi-algebraic set, defined by polynomial inequalities, under more general conditions. Based on each…
We characterize exactly the compactness properties of the product of \kappa\ copies of the space \omega\ with the discrete topology. The characterization involves uniform ultrafilters, infinitary languages, and the existence of nonstandard…
Let $X$ and $M$ be a topological space and metric space, respectively. If $C(X,M)$ denotes the set of all continuous functions from X to M, we say that a subset $Y$ of $X$ is an \emph{$M$-interpolation set} if given any function $g\in M^Y$…
We investigate, in ZFC, the behavior of abstract elementary classes (AECs) categorical in many successive small cardinals. We prove for example that a universal $\mathbb{L}_{\omega_1, \omega}$ sentence categorical on an end segment of…
We provide a pointwise bipolar theorem for liminf-closed convex sets of positive Borel measurable functions on a sigma-compact metric space without the assumption that the polar is a tight set of measures. As applications we derive a…
We consider the compact spaces sigma_n(I) of subsets of an uncountable set I of cardinality at most n and their countable products. We give a complete classification of their Banach spaces of continuous functions and a partial topological…
We investigate the class of compact spaces which are embeddable into a power of the real line $R^\kappa$ in such a way that c_0(\kappa) is dense in the image. We show that this is a proper subclass of the class of Valdivia, even when…
We study the possible structures which can be carried by sets which have no countable subset, but which fail to be `surjectively Dedekind finite', in two possible senses, that there is a surjection to $\omega$, or alternatively, that there…
The \emph{Filter Dichotomy} says that every uniform nonmeager filter on the integers is mapped by a finite-to-one function to an ultrafilter. The consistency of this principle was proved by Blass and Laflamme. A function between topological…
We continue algebraization of the set of ultrafilters on a metric spaces initiated in [6]. In particular, we define and study metric counterparts of prime, strongly prime and right cancellable ultrafilters from the Stone-$\check{C}$ech…
We obtain a compactness result for $\Gamma$-convergence of integral functionals defined on $\mathcal{A}$-free vector fields. This is used to study homogenization problems for these functionals without periodicity assumptions. More…
Given two systems $P=(P_j(D))_{j=1}^N$ and $Q=(Q_j(D))_{j=1}^M$ of linear partial differential operators with constant coefficients, we consider the spaces ${\mathcal E}_\omega^P$ and ${\mathcal E}_\omega^Q$ of $\omega$-ultradifferentiable…
Assume $X$ is a variety over $\mathbb{C}$, $A \subseteq \mathbb{C}$ is a finitely generated $\mathbb{Z}$-algebra and $X_A$ a model of $X$ (i.e. $X_A \times_A \mathbb{C} \cong X$). Assuming the weak ordinarity conjecture we show that there…
We show that if $\kappa \leq \omega$ and there exists a group topology without non-trivial convergent sequences on an Abelian group $H$ such that $H^n$ is countably compact for each $n<\kappa$ then there exists a topological group $G$ such…
We consider, for infinite cardinals kappa and alpha <= kappa^+, the group Pi(kappa,< alpha) of sequences of integers, of length kappa, with non-zero entries in fewer than alpha positions. Our main result tells when Pi(kappa,< alpha) can be…
The ultrafilters on the partial order $([\omega]^{\omega},\subseteq^*)$ are the free ultrafilters on $\omega$, which constitute the space $\omega^*$, the Stone-Cech remainder of $\omega$. If $U$ is an upperset of this partial order (i.e., a…
We show that that a certain class of semi-proper iterations does not add omega-sequences. As a result, starting from suitable large cardinals one can obtain a model in which the Continuum Hypothesis holds and every function from omega_1 to…
We study various combinatorial properties, and the implications between them, for filters generated by infinite-dimensional subspaces of a countable vector space. These properties are analogous to selectivity for ultrafilters on the natural…
The following paper is inspired by Efimov's problem - an undecided problem of whether there exists an infinite compact topological space that does not contain neither non-trivial convergent sequences nor a copy of $\beta\omega$. After…
We study the class of functions on Lipschitz-graph domains satisfying a differential-oscillation condition and show that such functions are $\epsilon$-approximable. As a consequence we obtain the quantitative Fatou theorem in the spirit of…
