A class K of structures is controlled if, for all cardinals lambda, the relation of L_{infty,lambda}-equivalence partitions K into a set of equivalence classes (as opposed to a proper class). We prove that the class of doubly transitive…

For a finite-dimensional algebra {\Lambda}, we establish an explicit bijection between widely generated torsion(-free) classes and semibricks in mod {\Lambda}. Using the kappa order on the lattice of torsion classes with canonical join…

The third author has shown that Shelah's eventual categoricity conjecture holds in universal classes: class of structures closed under isomorphisms, substructures, and unions of chains. We extend this result to the framework of…

Universal continuous calculi are defined and it is shown that for every finite tuple of pairwise commuting Hermitian elements of a Su*-algebra (an ordered *-algebra that is symmetric, i.e. "strictly" positive elements are invertible, and…

The lambda calculus with constructors is an extension of the lambda calculus with variadic constructors. It decomposes the pattern-matching a la ML into a case analysis on constants and a commutation rule between case and application…

We use orthogonality calculus to prove a downward transfer from categoricity in a successor in abstract elementary classes (AECs) that have a good frame (a forking-like notion for types of singletons) on an interval of cardinals:…

Let $\mathbb{K}$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $0$. We study a monoidal category $\mathbb{T}_\alpha$ which is universal among all symmetric $\mathbb{K}$-linear monoidal categories generated by two objects $A$ and $B$…

We introduce bounded category forcing axioms for well-behaved classes $\Gamma$. These are strong forms of bounded forcing axioms which completely decide the theory of some initial segment of the universe $H_{\lambda_\Gamma^+}$ modulo…

For a bundle of oriented closed smooth $n$-manifolds $\pi: E \to X$, the tautological class $\kappa_{\mathcal{L}_k} (E) \in H^{4k-n}(X;\mathbb{Q})$ is defined by fibre integration of the Hirzebruch class $\mathcal{L}_k (T_v E)$ of the…

It is known from Grzegorczyk's paper \cite{grze-1951} that the lattice of real semi-algebraic closed subsets of ${\mathbb R}^n$ is undecidable for every integer $n\geq 2$. More generally, if $X$ is any definable set over a real or…

In a number of recent papers, (k+l)-graphs have been constructed from k-graphs by inserting new edges in the last l dimensions. These constructions have been motivated by C*-algebraic considerations, so they have not been treated…

In this paper we study the lower triangular matrix $\mathbb{K}$-algebra $\Lambda:=\left[\begin{smallmatrix} T & 0 \\ M & U \end{smallmatrix}\right],$ where $U$ and $T$ are basic $\mathbb{K}$-algebras with enough idempotents and $M$ is an…

We study general methods to build forking-like notions in the framework of tame abstract elementary classes (AECs) with amalgamation. We show that whenever such classes are categorical in a high-enough cardinal, they admit a good frame: a…

We provide a complete classification of all the possible categoricity spectra, in terms of internal size, that can appear in a large accessible category with directed colimits, assuming the Singular Cardinal Hypothesis ($SCH$), and…

For any abstract elementary class (AEC) ${\bf K}$ with $\lambda=LS({\bf K})$, the following holds: 1. $K$ has an axiomatization in $L_{(2^\lambda)^+,\lambda^+}$, allowing game quantification. If ${\bf K}$ has arbitrarily large models, the…

We investigate in ZFC what can be the family of large enough cardinals mu in which an a.e.c. K is categorical or even just solvable. We show that for not few cardinals lambda<mu there is a superlimit model in K_lambda. Moreover, our main…

We show that certain classes of modules have universal models with respect to pure embeddings. $Theorem.$ Let $R$ be a ring, $T$ a first-order theory with an infinite model extending the theory of $R$-modules and $K^T=(Mod(T), \leq_{pp})$…

Answering some of the main questions from [MR13], we show that whenever $\kappa$ is a cardinal satisfying $\kappa^{< \kappa} = \kappa > \omega$, then the embeddability relation between $\kappa$-sized structures is strongly invariantly…

We consider a generalization $K_0^{\operatorname{gr}}(R)$ of the standard Grothendieck group $K_0(R)$ of a graded ring $R$ with involution. If $\Gamma$ is an abelian group, we show that $K_0^{\operatorname{gr}}$ completely classifies graded…

This paper investigates the problem of extending measure theory to non-separable structures, from generalized descriptive set theory to a broader class of spaces beyond this framework. While various notions, such as the ideal of measure…
