We answer a question of Woodin by showing that assuming an inaccessible cardinal $\kappa$ which is a limit of ${<}\kappa$-supercompact cardinals exists, there is a stationary set preserving forcing $\mathbb{P}$ so that $V^{\mathbb…

We discuss some well-known compactness principles for uncountable structures of small regular sizes ($\omega_n$ for $2 \le n<\omega$, $\aleph_{\omega+1}$, $\aleph_{\omega^2+1}$, etc.), consistent from weakly compact (the size-restricted…

We solve a well--known problem in the theory of compact scattered spaces and superatomic boolean algebras by showing that, under GCH and for each regular cardinal $\kappa \geq \omega$, there is a poset $\mathcal P_\kappa$ preserving all…

A well-known version of Rowbottom's theorem for supercompactness ultrafilters leads naturally to notions of two-cardinal Ramseyness and corresponding normal ideals introduced herein. Generalizing results of Baumgartner [7, 8], Feng [22] and…

We estimate the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of ideals in a polynomial ring over a field by studying the regularity of certain modules generated in degree zero and with linear relations. In dimension one, this process gives a new type of…

We develop a family of simple rank one theories built over quite arbitrary sequences of finite hypergraphs. (This extends an idea from the recent proof that Keisler's order has continuum many classes, however, the construction does not…

We introduce a $\sigma$-ideal on $\omega_1 \times \omega_1$ and a filter on the collection of graphs of strictly decreasing partial functions on $\omega_1$ taking values in $\omega_1$. We use them to prove that a certain space is a…

Let C denote any of the following cardinal characteristics of Boolean algebras: incomparability, spread, character, pi-character, hereditary Lindelof number, hereditary density. It is shown to be consistent that there exists a sequence…

We study $\kappa$-maximal cofinitary groups for $\kappa$ regular uncountable, $\kappa = \kappa^{<\kappa}$. Revisiting earlier work of Kastermans and building upon a recently obtained higher analogue of Bell's theorem, we show that: 1. Any…

In the context of large cardinals, the classical diamond principle Diamond_kappa is easily strengthened in natural ways. When kappa is a measurable cardinal, for example, one might ask that a Diamond_kappa sequence anticipate every subset…

An earlier paper, entitled "P-hierarchy on $\beta\omega$", investigated the relations between ordinal ultrafilters and the so-called P-hierarchy. This study is continued in the present paper and focuses on the aspects of characterization of…

This note shows how recent work of Eskew and Hayut can be combined with a method of Raghavan and Shelah to show the consistency of $\mathfrak u_\kappa<2^\kappa$ for $\aleph_3\leq \kappa<\aleph_{\omega}$, from a huge cardinal.

In the first part of this paper, we explore the possibility for a very large cardinal $\kappa$ to carry a $\kappa$-complete ultrafilter without Galvin's property. In this context, we prove the consistency of every ground model…

We expand the notion of core to $cl$-core for Nakayama closures $cl$. In the characteristic $p>0$ setting, when $cl$ is the tight closure, denoted by *, we give some examples of ideals when the core and the *-core differ. We note that…

We give a bound on the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of a homogeneous ideals I, in a polynomial ring A, in terms of number of variables and the degrees of generators, when the dimension of A/I is at most two. This bound improves the one…

We establish generic existence of Universal Taylor Series on products $\Omega = \prod \Omega_i$ of planar simply connected domains $\Omega_i$ where the universal approximation holds on products $K$ of planar compact sets with connected…

We introduce axiomatically the ring $\bf{Z}_\kappa$ of the Euclidean integers, that can be viewed as the ``integral part" of the field $\mathbb{E}$ of Euclidean numbers of [4], where the transfinite sum of ordinal indexed $\kappa$-sequences…

We prove Holder regularity for solutions of non divergence integro-differential equations with non necessarily even kernels. The even/odd decomposition of the kernel can be understood as a sum of a diffusion and a drift term. In our case we…

We discuss invariants of Cohen-Macaulay local rings that admit a canonical module $\omega$. Attached to each such ring R, when $\omega$ is an ideal, there are integers--the type of R, the reduction number of $\omega$--that provide valuable…

Solving a decades-old problem we show that Keisler's 1967 order on theories has the maximum number of classes. The theories we build are simple unstable with no nontrivial forking, and reflect growth rates of sequences which may be thought…
