The stable Ramsey's theorem for pairs has been the subject of numerous investigations in mathematical logic. We introduce a weaker form of it by restricting from the class of all stable colorings to subclasses of it that are non-null in a…

We present a new proof that the statement 'every subgroup of a free group is free' implies the Axiom of Choice for finite sets.

We give a definition of thickness in $\mathbb{R}^d$ that is useful even for totally disconnected sets, and prove a Gap Lemma type result. We also guarantee an interval of distances in any direction in thick compact sets, relate thick sets…

We say that a subset $S$ of an infinite group $G$ is a Ramsey-product subset if, for any infinite subsets $X$, $Y$ of $G$, there exist $x \in X$ and $y\in Y$ such that $x y \in S$ and $ y x \in S$ . We show that the family $\varphi$ of all…

In this paper we study the existence and uniqueness of fixed points of a class of mappings defined on complete, (sequentially compact) cone metric spaces, without continuity conditions and depending on another function.

Baroque questions of set-theoretic foundations are widely assumed to be irrelevant to physics. In this article, I demonstrate that this assumption is incorrect. I show that the fundamental physical question of whether a theory is…

We extend the theory of atomized semilattices to the infinite setting. We show that it is well-defined and that every semilattice is atomizable. We also study atom redundancy, focusing on complete and finitely generated semilattices and…

We classify the stable formulas in the theory of Dense Linear Orders without endpoints, the stable formulas in the theory of Divisible Abelian Groups, and the stable formulas without parameters in the theory of Real Closed Fields. The third…

We give a short, explicit proof of Hindman's Theorem that in every finite coloring of the integers, there is an infinite set all of whose finite sums have the same color. We give several exampls of colorings of the integers which do not…

We characterize the subsets $E \subset \mathbb{R}$ for which there exists a continuous real valued function $f: \mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ such that lip $f$ is finite everywhere and Lip $f$ is infinite exactly on $E$.

We prove that finite partial orders with a linear extension form a Ramsey class. Our proof is based on the fact that class of acyclic graphs has the Ramsey property and uses the partite construction.

We investigate infinite-exponent partition relations on arbitrary relational structures, with a focus on linear orders and graphs. Any such relation contradicts the Axiom of Choice. We show that there are some such relations which are…

Let $ x $ be an element of a finite group $ G $ and denote the order of $ x $ by $ \mathrm{ord}(x) $. We consider a finite group $ G $ such that $ \gcd(\mathrm{ord}(x),\mathrm{ord}(y))\leqslant 2 $ for any two vanishing elements $ x $ and $…

In recent years, there has been much progress in the field of structural Ramsey theory, in particular in the study of big Ramsey degrees. In all known examples of infinite structures with finite big Ramsey degrees, there is in fact a single…

Big Ramsey degrees of finite structures are usually considered with respect to a Fra\"{i} ss\'e limit. Building mainly on the work of Devlin, Sauer, Laflamme and Van Th\'e, in this paper we consider structures which are not Fra\"{i} ss\'e…

The dominant rational maps of finite degree from a fixed variety to varieties of general type, up to birational isomorphisms, form a finite set. This has been known as the Iitaka-Severi conjecture, and is nowdays an established result, in…
