We show that if the existence of a supercompact cardinal $\kappa$ with a weakly compact cardinal $\lambda$ above $\kappa$ is consistent, then the following are consistent as well (where $\mathfrak{t}(\kappa)$ and $\mathfrak{u}(\kappa)$ are…

Much of the theory of large cardinals beyond a measurable cardinal concerns the structure of elementary embeddings of the universe of sets into inner models. This paper seeks to answer the question of whether the inner model uniquely…

We give a canonical construction of a balanced big Cohen-Macaulay algebra for a domain of finite type over $\mathbb C$ by taking ultraproducts of absolute integral closures in positive characteristic. This yields a new tight closure…

After reviewing various natural bi-interpretations in urelement set theory, including second-order set theories with urelements, we explore the strength of second-order reflection in these contexts. Ultimately, we prove, second-order…

This paper presents a necessary and sufficient condition on a category with weak finite limits for its exact completion to be (locally) cartesian closed. A paper by Carboni and Rosolini already claimed such a characterisation using a…

In this article we prove three main theorems: (1) guessing models are internally unbounded, (2) for any regular cardinal $\kappa \ge \omega_2$, $\textsf{ISP}(\kappa)$ implies that $\textsf{SCH}$ holds above $\kappa$, and (3) forcing posets…

Shininess and strong politeness are properties related to theory combination procedures. In a paper titled "Many-sorted equivalence of shiny and strongly polite theories", Casal and Rasga proved that for decidable theories, these properties…

A theoretical development is carried to establish fundamental results about rank-initial embeddings and automorphisms of countable non-standard models of set theory, with a keen eye for their sets of fixed points. These results are then…

We continue the study of the Galvin property from \cite{bgs} and \cite{Benhamou2}. In particular, we deepen the connection between certain diamond-like principles and non-Galvin ultrafilters. We also show that any Dodd sound non p-point…

We consider flux compactifications of type IIB string theory and F-theory in which the respective superpotentials at large complex structure are dominated by cubic or quartic terms in the complex structure moduli. In this limit, the…

We construct, in locally compact, second countable, amenable groups, sets with large density that fail to have certain combinatorial properties. For the property of being a shift of a set of measurable recurrence we show that this is…

Foreman proved the Duality Theorem, which gives an algebraic characterization of certain ideal quotients in generic extensions. As an application he proved that generic supercompactness of $\omega_1$ is preserved by any proper forcing. We…

We consider the situation in which some class of structures has the Strong Amalgamation Property (SAP) with the further requirement that the amalgamating structure can be taken over the set theoretical union of (the images of) the domains…

We continue the study from \cite{BrendleFreidmanMontoya, vandervlugtlocalizationcardinals} of localization cardinals $\mfb_\kappa(\in^*)$ and $\mfd_\kappa(\in^*)$ and their variants at regular uncountable $\kappa$. We prove that if $\kappa$…

We study saturation properties of $\sigma$-complete measures on $P_\kappa(\lambda)$, where $\lambda$ can be either regular or singular. In particular, we prove that in contrast to Galvin's theorem, the Galvin property of…

A strong submeasure on a compact metric space X is a sub-linear and bounded operator on the space of continuous functions on X. A strong submeasure is positive if it is non-decreasing. By Hahn-Banach theorem, a positive strong submeasure is…

Taking matrix as a synonym for a numerical function on the Cartesian product of two (in general, infinite) sets, a simple purely algebraic "reciprocity property" says that the set of rows spans a finite-dim space iff the set of columns does…

Hayut and first author isolated the notion of a critical cardinal in [1]. In this work we answer several questions raised in the original paper. We show that it is consistent for a critical cardinals to not have any ultrapower elementary…

In a complete metric space that is equipped with a doubling measure and supports a Poincar\'e inequality, we prove a new Cartan-type property for the fine topology in the case $p=1$. Then we use this property to prove the existence of…

Shelah showed that the existence of free subsets over internally approachable subalgebras follows from the failure of the PCF conjecture on intervals of regular cardinals. We show that a stronger property called the Approachable Bounded…
