In other work we have outlined how, building on ideas of Welch and Roberts, one can motivate believing in the existence of supercompact cardinals. After making this observation we strove to formulate a justification for large-cardinal…
For any regular cardinal $\kappa$ and ordinal $\eta<\kappa^{++}$ it is consistent that $2^{\kappa}$ is as large as you wish, and every function $f:\eta \to [\kappa,2^{\kappa}]\cap Card$ with $f(\alpha)=\kappa$ for $cf(\alpha)<\kappa$ is the…
Given a forcing notion $P$ that forces certain values to several classical cardinal characteristics of the reals, we show how we can compose $P$ with a collapse (of a cardinal $\lambda>\kappa$ to $\kappa$) such that the composition still…
Assuming the existence of a proper class of supercompact cardinals, we force that for every regular cardinal $\kappa$, there are $\kappa^+$-Aronszajn trees and all such trees are special.
We prove upper bounds for the spread, the Lindel\"of number and the weak Lindel\"of number of the $G_\delta$-topology on a topological space and apply a few of our bounds to give a short proof to a recent result of Juh\'asz and van Mill…
We establish connections between silting and tilting objects in an abelian category $\mathcal{B}$ and those in a cleft extension $\mathcal{A}$ of $\mathcal{B}$, which provides a method for constructing more silting and tilting objects. Then…
We give a combinatorial characterization of when a maximal almost disjoint family of a weakly compact cardinal $\kappa$ is indestructible by the higher random forcing $\mathbb Q_\kappa$. We then use this characterisation to show that…
We prove that if $\mathbb A$ is an algebra that is supernilpotent with respect to the $2$-term higher commutator, and $\mathbb B$ is a subalgebra of $\mathbb A$, then $\mathbb B$ is representable as a retract of a finite subdirect power of…
Let $(\mathcal{B},\mathcal{A}, i, e, l)$ be a cleft extension of abelian categories. We prove that the functor $l$ preserves and reflects (Wakamatsu) tilting pairs of subcategories under certain conditions, unifying an abundance of known…
In this note, we prove that for any given positive integer $\kappa$, when $n$ is bigger than a constant explicitly depending on $\kappa$, the $n$-th Fibonacci number has a primitive divisor not less than $(\kappa+1)n-1$.
Monk asks (problems 13, 15 in his list; pi is the algebraic density):''For a Boolean algebra B, aleph_0 <= theta <= pi (B), does B have a subalgebra B' with pi (B')= theta ?'' If theta is regular the answer is easily positive, we show that…
We present new, streamlined proofs of certain maximality principles studied by Hamkins and Woodin. Moreover, we formulate an intermediate maximality principle, which is shown here to be equiconsistent with the existence of a weakly compact…
Let kappa be an uncountable regular cardinal. Assuming 2^kappa=kappa^+, we show that the clone lattice on a set of size kappa is not dually atomic.
We prove the consistency of $\mathrm{add}(\mathcal{N})<\mathrm{cov}(\mathcal{N})<\mathfrak{p}=\mathfrak{g}=\mathfrak{s}<\mathrm{add}(\mathcal{M})=\mathrm{cof}(\mathcal{M})<\mathfrak{a}=\mathrm{non}(\mathcal{N})=\mathfrak{c}$ with ZFC where…
We introduce a general notion of covering property, of which many classical definitions are particular instances. Notions of closure under various sorts of convergence, or, more generally, under taking kinds of accumulation points, are…
We prove that a variety of generalized cardinal characteristics, including meeting numbers, the reaping number, and the dominating number, satisfy an analogue of the Galvin-Hajnal theorem, and hence also of Silver's theorem, at singular…
We show in ZF that: (i) Every subcompact metrizable space is completely metrizable, and every completely metrizable space is countably subcompact. (ii) A metrizable space X=(X,T) is countably compact iff it is countably subcompact relative…
We investigate the splitting property of quasitriangular Hopf algebras through the lens of twisted tensor products. Specifically, we demonstrate that an infinite-dimensional quasitriangular Hopf algebra possesses the splitting property if…
We apply tilting theory over preprojective algebras $Lambda$ to a study of moduli space of $Lambda$-modules. We define the categories of semistable modules and give an equivalence, so-called reflection functors, between them by using…
We consider the dual space of linear groups over Dynkinian and Euclidean algebras, i.e. finite dimensional algebras derived equivalent to the path algebra of Dynkin or Euclidean quiver. We prove that this space contains an open dense subset…
