For a coalgebra $C_k$ over field $k$, we define the "coalgebra extension problem" as the question: what multiplication laws can we define on $C_k$ to make it a bialgebra over $k$? This paper answers this existence-uniqueness question for…
We consider the reverse math strength of the statement $\mathsf{C\text-DM}$:"Every completely determined Borel set is measurable." Over $\mathsf{WWKL}_0$, we obtain the following results analogous to the previously studied category case.…
These notes present a compact and self-contained approach to iterated forcing with a particular emphasis on semiproper forcing. We tried to make our presentation accessible to any scholar who has some familiarity with forcing and boolean…
Suppose $C$ is an isogeny class of abelian varieties over a finite field $k$. In this paper we give a partial answer to the question of which finite group schemes over $k$ occur as kernels of polarizations of varieties in $C$. We show that…
A subset $X$ of a Polish group $G$ is \emph{Haar null} if there exists a Borel probability measure $\mu$ and a Borel set $B$ containing $X$ such that $\mu(gBh)=0$ for every $g,h \in G$. A set $X$ is \emph{Haar meager} if there exists a…
A topological group $G$ is {\em sequentially $h$-complete} if all the continuous homomorphic images of $G$ are sequentially complete. In this paper we give necessary and sufficient conditions on a complete group for being compact, using the…
We prove that the Borel space of torsion-free Abelian groups with domain $\omega$ is Borel complete, i.e., the isomorphism relation on this Borel space is as complicated as possible, as an isomorphism relation. This solves a long-standing…
For finitely generated groups H and G, equipped with word metrics, a translation-like action of H on G is a free action such that each element of H acts by a map which has finite distance from the identity map in the uniform metric. For…
In an earlier paper, we introduced the following pre-order on the subgroups of a given Polish group: if $G$ is a Polish group and $H,L \subseteq G$ are subgroups, we say $H$ is {\em homomorphism reducible} to $L$ iff there is a continuous…
We deal with (< kappa)-supported iterated forcing notions which are (E_0,E_1)-complete, have in mind problems on Whitehead groups, uniformizations and the general problem. We deal mainly with the successor of a singular case. This continues…
In this paper, we give the first examples of connected Polish groups that have ample generics, answering a question of Kechris and Rosendal. We show that any Polish group with ample generics embeds into a connected Polish group with ample…
We show that the set of codes for Ramsey positive analytic sets is $\mathbf{\Sigma}^1_2$-complete. This is a one projective-step higher analogue of the Hurewicz theorem saying that the set of codes for uncountable analytic sets is…
The top part of the preceding figure [figure appears in actual paper] shows some classes from the (truth-table) bounded-query and boolean hierarchies. It is well-known that if either of these hierarchies collapses at a given level, then all…
Following the topic of the book Canonical Ramsey Theory on Polish Spaces by V. Kanovei, M. Sabok and J. Zapletal we study Borel equivalences on Laver trees. Here we prove that equivalence relations Borel reducible to an equivalence relation…
In S. 1 we deal with amalgamation bases, e.g., we define when an a.e.c. $k$ has $(\lambda,\kappa)$-amalgamation which means "many" M in $K^k_\lambda$ are amalgamation bases. We then consider what happens for the class of lf groups. In S. 2…
We investigate the combinatorial discrepancy of geometric set systems having bounded shallow cell complexity in the \emph{Beck-Fiala} setting, where each point belongs to at most $t$ ranges. For set systems with shallow cell complexity…
Let G be any abelian group and {a_sG_s}_{s=1}^k be a finite system of cosets of subgroups G_1,...,G_k. We show that if {a_sG_s}_{s=1}^k covers all the elements of G at least m times with the coset a_tG_t irredundant then [G:G_t]\le 2^{k-m}…
We study the question of when a given countable ordinal $\alpha$ is $\Sigma^1_n$- or $\Pi^1_n$-reflecting in models which are neither $\mathsf{PD}$ models nor the constructible universe, focusing on generic extensions of $L$. We prove,…
We show that the set of Liouville numbers is either null or non-$\sigma$-finite with respect to every translation invariant Borel measure on $\RR$, in particular, with respect to every Hausdorff measure $\iH^g$ with gauge function $g$. This…
In this paper we shall consider a couple of properties of $\sigma$-ideals and study relations between them. Namely we will prove that $\mathfrak{c}$-cc $\sigma$-ideals are tall and that the Weaker Smital Property implies that every Borel…
