By forcing with $\mathbb{P}_{\rm max}$ over strong models of determinacy, we obtain models where different square principles at $\omega_2$ and $\omega_3$ fail. In particular, we obtain a model of $2^{\aleph_0}=2^{\aleph_1}=\aleph_2 +…

We explore various formality and finiteness properties in the differential graded algebra models for the Sullivan algebra of piecewise polynomial rational forms on a space. The 1-formality property of the space may be reinterpreted in terms…

We show that $\mathsf{PFA}$ implies that the tightness $t(X_\delta)$ of the $G_\delta$-modification of a Fr\'echet $\alpha_1$-space $X$ is at most $\omega_1$, while $\Box(\kappa)$ implies that there is a Fr\'echet $\alpha_1$-space with…

The superamalgamation property is a strong form of the amalgamation property which applies to ordered structures; it has found many applications in algebraic logic. We show that superamalgamation has some interest also from the pure…

Fairness across different demographic groups is an essential criterion for face-related tasks, Face Attribute Classification (FAC) being a prominent example. Apart from this trend, Federated Learning (FL) is increasingly gaining traction as…

We develop a new method for building forcing iterations with symmetric systems of structures as side conditions. Using our method we prove that the forcing axiom for the class of all the small finitely proper posets is compatible with a…

We prove that the statement `For all Borel ideals I and J on $\omega$, every isomorphism between Boolean algebras $P(\omega)/I$ and $P(\omega)/J$ has a continuous representation' is relatively consistent with ZFC. In this model every…

We prove a compactness theorem for pseudopower operations of the form $pp_{\Gamma(\mu,\sigma)}(\mu)$ where $\aleph_0<\sigma=cf(\sigma)\leq cf(\mu)$. Our main tool is a result that has Shelah's cov vs. pp Theorem as a consequence. We also…

We prove some general results about quasi-actions on trees and define Property (QFA), which is analogous to Serre's Property (FA), but in the coarse setting. This property is shown to hold for a class of groups, including $SL(n,\Z)$ for…

The Steprans forcing notion arises as a quotient of Borel sets modulo the ideal of $\sigma$-continuity of a certain Borel not $\sigma$-continuous function. We give a characterization of this forcing in the language of trees and using this…

In this article we prove that stratified spaces and other geometric subfamilies satisfy categorical Fra\"iss\'e properties, a matter that might be of interest for both geometers and logicians. As a motivation we show a new example of a…

Let $A$ be a maximal abelian subalgebra (MASA) in a \II1 factor $M$. Sorin Popa introduced an analytic condition that can be used to identify the normalizing algebra of $A$ in $M$ and which we call \emph{the relative weak asymptotic…

In \cite{MV} we defined and proved the consistency of the principle ${\rm GM}^+(\omega_3,\omega_1)$ which implies that many consequences of strong forcing axioms hold simultaneously at $\omega_2$ and $\omega_3$. In this paper we formulate a…

We consider the modality "$\varphi$ is true in every $\sigma$-centered forcing extension", denoted $\square\varphi$, and its dual "$\varphi$ is true in some $\sigma$-centered forcing extension", denoted $\lozenge\varphi$ (where $\varphi$ is…

We describe a formalization of forcing using Boolean-valued models in the Lean 3 theorem prover, including the fundamental theorem of forcing and a deep embedding of first-order logic with a Boolean-valued soundness theorem. As an…

In this short note, we shall prove some observations regarding the connection between indestructible $\omega_1$-guessing models and the $\omega_1$-approximation property of forcing notions.

The forcing theorem is the most fundamental result about set forcing, stating that the forcing relation for any set forcing is definable and that the truth lemma holds, that is everything that holds in a generic extension is forced by a…

The paper is devoted to a study of certain fixed point properties, and their relatives, in the context of full automorphism groups of countable rooted trees. Namely, we study Serre's property (FA'), also called unsplittability, property…

Using theory of props we prove a formality theorem associated with universal quantizations of (strongly homotopy) Lie bialgebras.

We study the problem of deformation quantization for (algebraic) symplectic manifolds over a base field of positive characteristic. We prove a reasonably complete classification theorem for one class of such quantizations; in the course of…
