Suppose you have an uncomputable set $X$ and you want to find a set $A$, all of whose infinite subsets compute $X$. There are several ways to do this, but all of them seem to produce a set $A$ which is fairly sparse. We show that this is…
We generalise the results by Bigorajska and Kotlarski about partitioning $\alpha$-large sets, by extending the domain up to ordinals below $\varepsilon_{\omega}$. These results will be very useful to give a miniaturisation of the infinite…
The main goal of this note is to prove the following theorem. If $A_n$ is a sequence of measurable sets in a $\sigma$-finite measure space $(X, \mathcal{A}, \mu)$ that covers $\mu$-a.e. $x \in X$ infinitely many times, then there exists a…
New partial results are obtained related to the following old problem of Erd\"os: for any infinite set $X$ of real numbers to show that there is always a measurable (or, equivalently, closed) subset of reals of positive Lebesgue measure…
Let $k$ be a number field with cyclotomic closure $k^{\mathrm{cyc}}$, and let $h \in k^{\mathrm{cyc}}(x)$. For $A \ge 1$ a real number, we show that \[ \{ \alpha \in k^{\mathrm{cyc}} : h(\alpha) \in \overline{\mathbb Z} \text{ has house at…
We study partitions of complex numbers as sums of non-negative powers of a fixed algebraic number $\beta$. We prove that if $\beta$ is real quadratic, then the number of partitions is always finite if and only if some conjugate of $\beta$…
Let $q$ be an odd prime and $k$ be a natural number. We show that a finite subset of integers $S$ that does not contain any perfect $q^{th}$ power, contains a $q^{th}$ power residue modulo almost every natural numbers $N$ with at most $k$…
We prove that there are infinitely many integers, which can represent as sum of a square-free integer and a prime $p$ with $||\alpha p+\beta||<p^{-1/10}$, where $\alpha$ is irrational.
A conjecture by Sun states that the partition function $p(n)$, for $n>1$, is never a perfect power. Recent work by Merca et al. proposes generalizations of perfect-power repulsion for $p(n)$. In this note, we prove these generalizations for…
Let $q$ be a prime. We give an elementary proof of the fact that for any $k\in\mathbb{N}$, the proportion of $k$-element subsets of $\mathbb{Z}$ that contain a $q^{th}$ power modulo almost every prime, is zero. This result holds regardless…
We prove an infinite Ramsey theorem for noncommutative graphs realized as unital self-adjoint subspaces of linear operators acting on an infinite dimensional Hilbert space. Specifically, we prove that if V is such a subspace, then provided…
In this paper we prove a conjecture of J. Andrade, S. J. Miller, K. Pratt and M. Trinh, showing the existence of a non trivial infinite $F$-set over $\mathbb F_q[x]$ for every fixed $q$. We also provide the proof of a refinement of the…
A set of integers $A$ is computably encodable if every infinite set of integers has an infinite subset computing $A$. By a result of Solovay, the computably encodable sets are exactly the hyperarithmetic ones. In this paper, we extend this…
A sequence $s(n)$ of integers is MC-finite if for every $m \in \mathbb{N}^+$ the sequence $s^m(n) = s(n) \bmod{m}$ is ultimately periodic. We discuss various ways of proving and disproving MC-finiteness. Our examples are mostly taken from…
We prove that every finite semigroup embeds in a finitely presented congruence-free monoid, and pose some questions around the Boone-Higman Conjecture.
Unlike the classical Brauer group of a field, the Brauer-Grothendieck group of a singular scheme need not be torsion. We show that there exist integral normal projective surfaces over a large field of positive characteristic with…
A subset $\Sigma \subset F_N$ of the free group of rank $N$ is called \emph{spectrally rigid} if whenever trees $T, T'$ in Culler-Vogtmann Outer Space are such that $\| g \|_T = \| g \|_{T'}$ for every $g \in \Sigma$, it follows that $T =…
The thin set theorem for $n$-tuples and $k$ colors ($\mathsf{TS}^n_k$) states that every $k$-coloring of $[\mathbb{N}]^n$ admits an infinite set of integers $H$ such that $[H]^n$ avoids at least one color. In this paper, we study the…
In this article we construct uncountably many new homogeneous locally finite Steiner triple systems of countably infinite order as Fra\"{\i}ss\'{e} limits of classes of finite Steiner triple systems avoiding certain subsystems. The…
In this paper we give a partial answer to a 1980 question of Lazslo Babai: "Which [finite] groups admit an oriented graph as a DRR?" That is, which finite groups admit an oriented regular representation (ORR)? We show that every finite…
