Assume $\kappa = \kappa^{< \kappa}$ (usually $\aleph_0$ or an inaccessible). We shall deal with iterated forcings preserving ${}^{\kappa>}{\rm Ord}$ and not collapsing cardinals along a linear order $L$. A sufficient condition for this,…
We study sigma-ideals and regularity properties related to the "filter-Laver" and "dual-filter-Laver" forcing partial orders. An important innovation which enables this study is a dichotomy theorem proved recently by Miller [1]. [1] Arnold…
In this paper we have introduced the notion of $\mathcal{I}$-density topology in the space of reals introducing the notions of upper $\mathcal{I}$-density and lower $\mathcal{I}$-density where $\mathcal{I}$ is an ideal of subsets of the set…
We study the consistency and consistency strength of various configurations concerning the cardinal characteristics $\mathfrak{s}_\theta,\mathfrak{p}_\theta,\mathfrak{g}_\theta,\mathfrak{r}_\theta,\mathfrak{t}_\theta$ at uncountable regular…
Our results in this paper increase the model-theoretic precision of a widely used method for building ultrafilters, and so advance the general problem of constructing ultrafilters whose ultrapowers have a precise degree of saturation. We…
We are interested in generalizing part of the theory of ultrafilters on omega to larger cardinals. Here we set the scene for further investigations introducing properties of ultrafilters in strong sense dual to being normal.
We continue the study of the pseudo-intersection property with respect to an ideal introduced in \cite{TomNatasha2}. Our theory applies to the study of the Tukey types of general sums of ultrafilters, which, as evidenced by the results of…
Assuming an inaccessible cardinal kappa, there is a generic extension in which MA + 2^{aleph_0} = kappa holds and the reals have a Delta^2_1 well-ordering.
We characterize exactly the compactness properties of the product of \kappa\ copies of the space \omega\ with the discrete topology. The characterization involves uniform ultrafilters, infinitary languages, and the existence of nonstandard…
We define a weak iterability notion that is sufficient for a number of arguments concerning $\Sigma_1$-definability at uncountable regular cardinals. In particular we give its exact consistency strength firstly in terms of the second…
Denote by $\continuum=2^{\aleph_0}$ the cardinal of continuum. We construct an intriguing family $(P_\alpha: \alpha\in\continuum)$ of prime $z$-ideals in $\C_0(\reals)$ with the following properties: If $f\in P_{i_0}$ for some…
We investigate the Tukey order in the class of $F_\sigma$ ideals of subsets of $\omega$. We show that no nontrivial $F_\sigma$ ideal is Tukey below a $G_\delta$ ideal of compact sets. We introduce the notions of flat ideals and gradually…
In this paper we have introduced the notion of $\mathcal{I}_{(s)}$-density point corresponding to the family of unbounded and $\mathcal{I}$-monotonic increasing positive real sequences, where $\mathcal{I}$ is the ideal of subsets of the set…
We show that the following two theories are equiconsistent: (T) ZFC, CH and "There is a dense ideal on the first uncountable cardinal such that if j is the generic embedding associated with it then its restriction on ordinals is independent…
We prove $\varepsilon$-regularity theorems for varifolds with capillary boundary condition in a Riemannian manifold. These varifolds were first introduced by Kagaya-Tonegawa \cite{KaTo}. We establish a uniform first variation control for…
Chebotarev's density theorem asserts that the prime ideals are equidistributed among the conjugacy classes of the Galois group of any normal extension of number fields. An effective version of this theorem was first established by Lagarias…
Following Baumgartner [J. Symb. Log. 60 (1995), no. 2], for an ideal $\mathcal{I}$ on $\omega$, we say that an ultrafilter $\mathcal{U}$ on $\omega$ is an $\mathcal{I}$-ultrafilter if for every function $f:\omega\to\omega$ there is $A\in…
We study the topology of the lcm-lattice of edge ideals and derive upper bounds on the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of the ideals. In this context it is natural to restrict to the family of graphs with no induced 4-cycle in their…
We introduce a two-parameter modification of the cofinality invariant of ideals. This allows us to include the interaction of a pair of ideals in the study of base-like structures. We find the values (cardinal numbers or well-known cardinal…
We introduce new cardinal invariants of a poset, called the comparability number and the incomparability number. We determine their value for well-known posets, such as $\omega^\omega$, $\mathcal{P}(\omega)/\mathrm{fin}$, the Turing degrees…
