We present in this paper a general algorithm for solving first-order formulas in particular theories called "decomposable theories". First of all, using special quantifiers, we give a formal characterization of decomposable theories and…

In this note, we give a simple proof that the Riemann Hypothesis is unprovable in any reasonable axiom system.

Motivated by structural properties of differential field extensions, we introduce the notion of a theory $T$ being derivation-like with respect to another model complete theory $T_0$. We prove that when $T$ admits a model companion $T_+$,…

Given a pattern $p = s_1x_1s_2x_2\cdots s_{r-1}x_{r-1}s_r$ such that $x_1,x_2,\ldots,x_{r-1}\in\{x,\overset{{}_{\leftarrow}}{x}\}$, where $x$ is a variable and $\overset{{}_{\leftarrow}}{x}$ its reversal, and $s_1,s_2,\ldots,s_r$ are…

Anytime valid sequential tests permit us to stop testing based on the current data, without invalidating the inference. Given a maximum number of observations $N$, one may believe this must come at the cost of power when compared to a…

The P versus NP problem is addressed in a context of provability and limitations on the possibility of finding sound axioms for formal theories. It is shown that if the term "constructible theory" is defined in a way which satisfies certain…

The classes stable, simple and NSOP$_1$ in the stability hierarchy for first-order theories can be characterised by the existence of a certain independence relation. For each of them there is a canonicity theorem: there can be at most one…

In this note I present a readable version of the proof of my 2001 result, giving a sufficient and necessary condition for a function on a combinatorial cube to essentially (locally) depend on at most one variable (see the end of the paper…

We try to understand complete types over a somewhat saturated model of a complete first order theory which is dependent (previously called NIP), by "decomposition theorems for such types". Our thesis is that the picture of dependent theory…

A value of a CSP instance is typically defined as a fraction of constraints that can be simultaneously met. We propose an alternative definition of a value of an instance and show that, for purely combinatorial reasons, a value of an…

We prove that the common theory of nonabelian free groups has the dimensional order property, or DOP, implying, for example, that there is no reasonable structure theorem for $\aleph_1$-saturated models of this theory.

We give a full solution to the question of existence of indiscernibles in dependent theories by proving the following theorem: for every $\theta$ there is a dependent theory $T$ of size $\theta$ such that for all $\kappa$ and $\delta$,…

SAT is not in P, is true and provable in a simply consistent extension B' of a first order theory B of computing, with a single finite axiom characterizing a universal Turing machine. Therefore, P is not equal to NP, is true and provable in…

The proof of the Independence Theorem for Kim-independence in positive thick NSOP$_1$ theories from (Dobrowolski and Kamsma, 2022) contains a gap. The theorem is still true, and in this corrigendum we give a different proof.

We introduce the notion of dependence, as a property of a Keisler measure, and generalize several results of [HPS13] on generically stable measures (in $NIP$ theories) to arbitrary theories. Among other things, we show that this notion is…

We exhibit a connection between geometric stability theory and the classification of unstable structures at the level of simplicity and the $\mathrm{NSOP}_{1}$-$\mathrm{SOP}_{3}$ gap. Particularly, we introduce generic expansions $T^{R}$ of…

Let $A$ be an additive basis. We call ``essential subset'' of $A$ any finite subset $P$ of $A$ such that $A \setminus P$ is not an additive basis and that $P$ is minimal (for the inclusion order) to have this property. A recent theorem due…

In logic there is a clear concept of what constitutes a proof and what not. A proof is essentially defined as a finite sequence of formulae which are either axioms or derived by proof rules from formulae earlier in the sequence.…
