We introduce a new logic, called \emph{cluster first-order logic}, a restricted fragment of first-order logic specifically designed to study order invariance. An order-invariant formula is one on a vocabulary that contains an order;…
Let $X$ be a Banach lattice. A well-known problem arising from the theory of risk measures asks when order closedness of a convex set in $X$ implies closedness with respect to the topology $\sigma(X,X_n^\sim)$, where $X_n^\sim$ is the order…
Every partition of [[omega_1]^{< omega}]^2 into finitely many pieces has a cofinal homogeneous set. Furthermore, it is consistent that every directed partially ordered set satisfies the partition property if and only if it has finite…
The third author has shown that Shelah's eventual categoricity conjecture holds in universal classes: class of structures closed under isomorphisms, substructures, and unions of chains. We extend this result to the framework of…
There are classical theorems of analysis which, given certain conditions on a perturbation, assert stability of the essential and absolutely continuous components of the spectrum of a self-adjoint operator. Whereas the singular component is…
We give a general exposition of model theoretic connected components of groups. We show that if a group G has NIP, then there exists the smallest invariant (over some small set) subgroup of G with bounded index (Theorem 5.3). This result…
We see how nested sequents, a natural generalisation of hypersequents, allow us to develop a systematic proof theory for modal logics. As opposed to other prominent formalisms, such as the display calculus and labelled sequents, nested…
We show that for each property $\mathsf{P}\in \{\mathsf{OP}, \mathsf{IP}, \mathsf{TP}_1, \mathsf{TP}_2, \mathsf{ATP}, \mathsf{SOP}_3\}$ there is a poset $\Sigma_{\mathsf{P}}$ such that a theory has property $\mathsf{P}$ if and only if some…
Continual Lie algebras are infinite-dimensional generalizations of Lie algebras with discrete root system by considering continual root systems. In this paper we establish the general relation between chain complexes and continual Lie…
This paper generalizes Shelah's generic pair conjecture (now theorem) for the measurable cardinal case from first order theories to finite diagrams. We use homogeneous models in the place of saturated models.
We consider self-similar continua possessing finite intersection property and prove intersection graph criterion for self-similar dendrites, finite order Theorem for such continua satisfying open set condition in $\mathbb{R}^n$ and…
Starting with a likelihood or preference order on worlds, we extend it to a likelihood ordering on sets of worlds in a natural way, and examine the resulting logic. Lewis earlier considered such a notion of relative likelihood in the…
Hyperproperties, as introduced by Clarkson and Schneider, characterize the correctness of a computer program as a condition on its set of computation paths. Standard temporal logics can only refer to a single path at a time, and therefore…
A complete first-order theory is equational if every definable set is a Boolean combination of instances of equations, that is, of formulae such that the family of finite intersections of instances has the descending chain condition.…
A logic has uniform interpolation if its formulas can be projected down to given subsignatures, preserving all logical consequences that do not mention the removed symbols; the weaker property of (Craig) interpolation allows the projected…
Possibilistic logic, an extension of first-order logic, deals with uncertainty that can be estimated in terms of possibility and necessity measures. Syntactically, this means that a first-order formula is equipped with a possibility degree…
Suppose L = {<, . . .} is any countable first order language in which < is interpreted as a linear order. Let T be any complete first order theory in the language L such that T has a kappa-like model where kappa is an inaccessible cardinal.…
We will investigate proof-theoretic and linguistic aspects of first-order linear logic. We will show that adding partial order constraints in such a way that each sequent defines a unique linear order on the antecedent formulas of a sequent…
In this paper we expound some basic ideas of proof theory for theories of ordinals such that there are many stable ordinals below the ordinals.
We study frequency linear-time temporal logic (fLTL) which extends the linear-time temporal logic (LTL) with a path operator $G^p$ expressing that on a path, certain formula holds with at least a given frequency p, thus relaxing the…
