A condition, in two variants, is given such that if a property P satisfies this condition, then every logic which is at least as strong as first-order logic and can express P fails to have the compactness property. The result is used to…
We study first-order logic over unordered structures whose elements carry a finite number of data values from an infinite domain which can be compared wrt. equality. As the satisfiability problem for this logic is undecidable in general, in…
Several perturbation tools are established in the volume preserving setting allowing for the pasting, extension, localized smoothing and local linearization of vector fields. The pasting and local linearization hold in all classes of…
We intend to investigate the metalogical property of 'omitting types' for a wide variety of quantifier logics (that can also be seen as multimodal logics upon identifying existential quantifiers with modalities syntactically and…
It is shown that Vop\v{e}nka's Principle (VP) can restore almost the entire ZF over a weak fragment of it. Namely, if EST is the theory consisting of the axioms of Extensionality, Empty Set, Pairing, Union, Cartesian Product,…
This dissertation is a contribution to the project of second-order set theory, which has seen a revival in recent years. The approach is to understand second-order set theory by studying the structure of models of second-order set theories.…
We prove that the Cohesiveness Principle (COH) is $\Pi^1_1$ conservative over $RCA_0 + I\Sigma^0_n$ and over $RCA_0 + B\Sigma^0_n$ for all $n \geq 2$ by recursion-theoretic means. We first characterize COH over $RCA_0 + B\Sigma^0_2$ as a…
We study possibilities of preservations for properties, their links and related connections between semantic and syntactic ones, both in general and as characterizations for subalgebras, congruence relations, Henkin construction,…
We study local conservation laws of variable coefficient diffusion-convection equations of the form $f(x)u_t=(g(x)A(u)u_x)_x+h(x)B(u)u_x$. The main tool of our investigation is the notion of equivalence of conservation laws with respect to…
We extend first-order logic to include variadic function symbols, and prove a substitution lemma. Two applications are given: one to bounded quantifier elimination and one to the definability of certain Borel sets.
We describe how properties of metric groups and of unitary representations of metric groups can be presented in continuous logic. In particular we find $L_{\omega_1 \omega}$-axiomatization of amenability. We also show that in the case of…
We investigate infinitary wellfounded systems for linear logic with fixed points, with transfinite branching rules indexed by some closure ordinal $\alpha$ for fixed points. Our main result is that provability in the system for some…
Sets with atoms serve as an alternative to ZFC foundations for mathematics, where some infinite, though highly symmetric sets, behave in a finitistic way. Therefore, one can try to carry over analysis of the classical algorithms from finite…
Continuous first-order logic is used to apply model-theoretic analysis to analytic structures (e.g. Hilbert spaces, Banach spaces, probability spaces, etc.). Classical computable model theory is used to examine the algorithmic structure of…
In mathematical logic there are two seemingly distinct kinds of principles called "reflection principles." Semantic reflection principles assert that if a formula holds in the whole universe, then it holds in a set-sized model. Syntactic…
In the the present contribution, we prove an Omitting Types Theorem (OTT) for an arbitrary fragment of hybriddynamic first-order logic with rigid symbols (i.e. symbols with fixed interpretations across worlds) closed under negation and…
The connection between symmetries and conservation laws as made by Noether's theorem is extended to the context of causal variational principles and causal fermion systems. Different notions of continuous symmetries are introduced. It is…
We prove a single category-theoretic result encapsulating the notions of ultrafilters, ultrapower, ultraproduct, tensor product of ultrafilters, the Rudin--Kiesler partial ordering on ultrafilters, and Blass's category of ultrafilters UF.…
The classical Gelfand--Naimark theorems provide important insight into the structure of general and of commutative C*-algebras. It is shown that these can be generalized to certain ordered *-algebras. More precisely, for $\sigma$-bounded…
We investigate conservation laws of diffusion-convection equations to construct first-order potential systems corresponding to these equations. We do two iterations of the construction procedure, looking, in the second step, for the…
