A subset $S$ of a cardinal $\kappa$ is Ramsey if for every function $f:[S]^{<\omega}\to \kappa$ with $f(a)<\min a$ for all $a\in[S]^{<\omega}$, there is a set $H\subseteq S$ of cardinality $\kappa$ which is \emph{homogeneous} for $f$,…
In classical canonical correlation analysis (CCA), the goal is to determine the linear transformations of two random vectors into two new random variables that are most strongly correlated. Canonical variables are pairs of these new random…
We prove that the strong polarized relation of $\theta$ above $\omega$ applied simultaneously for every cardinal in the interval $[\aleph_1,\aleph]$ is consistent. We conclude that this positive relation is consistent for every cardinal…
Assuming three strongly compact cardinals, it is consistent that \[ \aleph_1 < \mathrm{add}(\mathrm{null}) < \mathrm{cov}(\mathrm{null}) < \mathfrak{b} < \mathfrak{d} < \mathrm{non}(\mathrm{null}) < \mathrm{cof}(\mathrm{null}) <…
We demonstrate that the technology of Radin forcing can be used to transfer compactness properties at a weakly inaccessible but not strong limit cardinal to a strongly inaccessible cardinal. As an application, relative to the existence of…
This is a paper that aims to interpret the cardinality of a set in terms of Baire Category, i.e. how many closed nowhere dense sets can be deleted from a set before the set itself becomes negligible. . To do this natural tree-theoretic…
Assuming the existence of certain large cardinal numbers, we prove that for every projective filter $\mathscr F$ over the set of natural numbers, $\mathscr{F}$-bases in Banach spaces have continuous coordinate functionals. In particular,…
Let $\kappa$,$\lambda$ be regular uncountable cardinals such that $\lambda > \kappa^+$ is not a successor of a singular cardinal of low cofinality. We construct a generic extension with $s(\kappa) = \lambda$ starting from a ground model in…
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…
Given a Woodin cardinal $\delta$, I show that if $F$ is any Easton function with $F"\delta\subseteq\delta$ and $\GCH$ holds, then there is a cofinality-preserving forcing extension in which $2^\gamma= F(\gamma)$ for each regular cardinal…
Introducing unfoldable cardinals last year, Andres Villaveces ingeniously extended the notion of weak compactness to a larger context, thereby producing a large cardinal notion, unfoldability, with some of the feel and flavor of weak…
Given a cardinal $\kappa$ that is $\lambda$-supercompact for some regular cardinal $\lambda\geq\kappa$ and assuming $\GCH$, we show that one can force the continuum function to agree with any function $F:[\kappa,\lambda]\cap\REG\to\CARD$…
Assuming that there is no inner model with a Woodin cardinal, we obtain a characterization of $\lambda$-tall cardinals in extender models that are iterable. In particular we prove that in such extender models, a cardinal $\kappa$ is a tall…
We present an analogy between cardinal characteristics from set theory and highness properties from computability theory, which specify a sense in which a Turing oracle is computationally strong. While this analogy was first studied…
We consider cardinal invariants determined from Hausdorff measures. We separate many cardinal invariants of Hausdorff measure $0$ ideals using two models that separate many cardinal invariants of Yorioka ideals at once from earlier work.…
Jech proved that every partially ordered set can be embedded into the cardinals of some model of $ZF$. We extend this result to show that every partially ordered set can be embedded into the cardinals of some model of $ZF+DC_{<\kappa}$ for…
We show that from a supercompact cardinal \kappa, there is a forcing extension V[G] that has a symmetric inner model N in which ZF + not AC holds, \kappa\ and \kappa^+ are both singular, and the continuum function at \kappa\ can be…
Let $\mathcal{SN}$ be the $\sigma$-ideal of the strong measure zero sets of reals. We present general properties of forcing notions that allow to control of the additivity of $\mathcal{SN}$ after finite support iterations. This is applied…
For $\kappa$ regular and uncountable we define variants of the classical cardinal characteristics modulo the non-stationary ideal.
The class of Hausdorff spaces that are continuous images of compact orderable spaces is studied by analyzing the relationship between the elements of this class and compact orderable spaces in a back-and-forth fashion. Structure results for…
