We consider codes defined over an affine algebra $\mathcal A=R[X_1,\dots,X_r]/\left\langle t_1(X_1),\dots,t_r(X_r)\right\rangle$, where $t_i(X_i)$ is a monic univariate polynomial over a finite commutative chain ring $R$. Namely, we study…

We develop some basic results about full amalgamation classes with intrinsic trascendentals. These classes have generics whose models may have finite subsets whose intrinsic closure is not contained in its algebraic closure. We will show…

Let GCH hold and let $j:V\longrightarrow M$ be a definable elementary embedding such that $crit(j)=\kappa$, $^{\kappa}M\subseteq M$ and $\kappa^{++}=\kappa_{M}^{++}$. H. Woodin proved that there is a cofinality preserving generic extension…

In this paper, we consider mixed sums of generalized polygonal numbers. Specifically, we obtain a finiteness condition for universality of such sums; this means that it suffices to check representability of a finite subset of the positive…

For any central simple algebra over a field F which contains a maximal subfield M with non-trivial F-automorphism group G, G is solvable if and only if the algebra contains a finite chain of subalgebras which are generalized cyclic algebras…

We use a generalization of a construction by Ziegler to show that for any field $F$ and any countable collection of countable subsets $A_i \subseteq F, i \in \calI \subset \Z_{>0}$ there exist infinitely many fields $K$ of arbitrary…

We study the question of when a given countable ordinal $\alpha$ is $\Sigma^1_n$- or $\Pi^1_n$-reflecting in models which are neither $\mathsf{PD}$ models nor the constructible universe, focusing on generic extensions of $L$. We prove,…

Let $\M$ be a finite von Neumann algebra acting on a Hilbert space $\H$ and $\AA$ be a transitive algebra containing $\M'$. In this paper we prove that if $\AA$ is 2-fold transitive, then $\AA$ is strongly dense in $\B(\H)$. This implies…

Given a countable transitive model of set theory and a partial order contained in it, there is a natural countable Borel equivalence relation on generic filters over the model; two are equivalent if they yield the same generic extension. We…

Let $(X, +)$ denote $(\mathbb{R}, +)$ or $(2^{\omega}, +_2)$. We prove that for any meagre set $F \subseteq X$ there exists a subgroup $G \le X$ without the Baire property, disjoint with some translation of F. We point out several…

We indicate a way of distinguishing between structures, for which, two structures are said to be separable.Being separable implies being non-isomorphic. We show that for any first order theory $T$ in a countable language, if it has an…

Let $x_1,...,x_n$ be a list of real numbers, let $s :=\sum_{i=1}^{n}x_i$ and let $h:\mathbb{N} \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ be a function. We gave a necessary and sufficient condition for $s>h(n)$ (respectively, $s<h(n)$). Let $G=(V,E)$ be a…

The statement of Lemma 3.1 in the published paper is not correct. Lemma 3.1 is needed for the proof of Theorem 3.2. Theorem 3.2 as originally stated is true but its "proof" is not correct. Here we change the statements and proofs of Lemma…

We study models M of set theory that are "condensable", in the sense that there is an "ordinal" v of M such that the rank initial segment of M determined by v is both isomorphic to M, and also an elementary submodel of M for infinitary…

We prove a generalization of Thom's transversality theorem. It gives conditions under which the jet map $f_*|_Y:Y\subseteq J^r(D,M)\ra J^r(D,N)$ is generically (for $f:M\ra N$) transverse to a submanifold $Z\subseteq J^r(D,N)$. We apply…

A set $G \subseteq \omega$ is $n$-generic for a positive integer $n$ if and only if every $\Sigma^0_n$ formula of $G$ is decided by a finite initial segment of $G$ in the sense of Cohen forcing. It is shown here that every $n$-generic set…

Let $M$ be a prime $\Gamma$-ring satisfying a certain assumption and $D$ a nonzero derivation on $M$. Let $f:M\rightarrow M$ be a generalized derivation such that $f$ is centralizing and commuting on a left ideal $J$ of $M$. Then we prove…

Let $T$ be a complete, model complete o-minimal theory extending the theory RCF of real closed ordered fields in some appropriate language $L$. We study derivations $\delta$ on models $\mathcal{M}\models T$. We introduce the notion of a…

It is known that a positive, compactly supported function $f \in L^1(\mathbb R)$ can tile by translations only if the translation set is a finite union of periodic sets. We prove that this is not the case if $f$ is allowed to have unbounded…

We study finite-dimensional groups definable in models of the theory of real closed fields with a generic derivation (also known as CODF). We prove that any such group definably embeds in a semialgebraic group. We extend the results to…
