Let $X$ be an unbounded metric space, $B(x,r) = \{y\in X: d(x,y) \leqslant r\}$ for all $x\in X$ and $r\geqslant 0$. We endow $X$ with the discrete topology and identify the Stone-\v{C}ech compactification $\beta X$ of $X$ with the set of…
In [1] the authors showed some basic properties of a pre-order that arose in combinatorial number theory, namely the finite embeddability between sets of natural numbers, and they presented its generalization to ultrafilters, which is…
Stone-$\breve{C}$ech compactifications derived from a discrete semigroup $S$ can be considered as the spectrum of the algebra $\mathcal{B}(S)$ or as a collection of ultrafilters on $S$. What is certain and indisputable is the fact that…
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 continue the research of an extension $\widetilde{\mid}$ of the divisibility relation to the Stone-\v Cech compactification $\beta N$. First we prove that ultrafilters we call prime actually possess the algebraic property of primality.…
A set A of natural numbers is finitely embeddable in another such set B if every finite subset of A has a rightward translate that is a subset of B. This notion of finite embeddability arose in combinatorial number theory, but in this paper…
We study the question which Boolean algebras have the property that for every generating set there is an ultrafilter selecting maximal number of its elements. We call it the ultrafilter selection property. For cardinality aleph-one the…
We pursue the study of Ultracategories initiated by Makkai and more recently Lurie by looking at properties of Ultracategories of complete metric structures, i.e. coming from continuous model theory, instead of ultracategories of models of…
We characterize relative notions of syndetic and thick sets using, what we call, "derived" sets along ultrafilters. Manipulations of derived sets is a characteristic feature of algebra in the Stone-\v{C}ech compactification and its…
The Stone-Cech compactification of the natural numbers bN, or equivalently, the space of ultrafilters on the subsets of omega, is a well-studied space with interesting properties. If one replaces the subsets of omega by partitions of omega,…
To work more accurately with elements of the semigroup of the Stone Cech compactification of the discrete semigroup of natural numbers N under multiplication. We divided these elements into ultrafilters which are on finite levels and…
An extension of the divisibility relation on $\mathbb{N}$ to the set $\beta\mathbb{N}$ of ultrafilters on $\mathbb{N}$ was defined and investigated in several papers during the last ten years. Here we make a survey of results obtained so…
We discuss conditions under which certain compactifications of topological spaces can be obtained by composing the ultrafilter space monad with suitable reflectors. In particular, we show that these compactifications inherit their…
We develop a new concept of non-positive curvature for metric spaces, based on intersection patterns of closed balls. In contrast to the synthetic approaches of Alexandrov and Buesemann, our concept also applies to metric spaces that might…
Let $(S,\cdot)$ be a semigroup and $\mathfrak{m}$ be a $\sigma$-algebra on $S$. We say $(S,\cdot,\mathfrak{m})$ is a measurable semigroup if $\pi:S\times S\longrightarrow S$ by $\pi(x,y)=x\cdot y$ is a measurable function. In this paper ,…
The survey is devoted to the combinatorial and metric theory of filtrations, i.\,e., decreasing sequences of $\sigma$-algebras in measure spaces or decreasing sequences of subalgebras of certain algebras. One of the key notions, that of…
We characterize ultrafilter convergence and ultrafilter compactness in linearly ordered and generalized ordered topological spaces. In such spaces, and for every ultrafilter $D$, the notions of $D$-compactness and of $D$-pseudocompactness…
We investigate the structure of ultrafilters on Boolean algebras in the framework of Tukey reducibility. In particular, this paper provides several techniques to construct ultrafilters which are not Tukey maximal. Furthermore, we connect…
We continue the research of the relation $\hspace{1mm}\widetilde{\mid}\hspace{1mm}$ on the set $\beta {\mathbb{N}}$ of ultrafilters on ${\mathbb{N}}$, defined as an extension of the divisibility relation. It is a quasiorder, so we see it as…
We further investigate a divisibility relation on the set $\beta N$ of ultrafilters on the set of natural numbers. We single out prime ultrafilters (divisible only by 1 and themselves) and establish a hierarchy in which a position of every…
