We show that the forcing axiom for countably compact, $\omega_2$-Knaster, well-met posets is inconsistent. This is supplemental to an inconsistency result of Shelah and sets a new limit to the generalization of Martin's Axiom to the stage…
Let R be a local Cohen-Macaulay ring with canonical module \omega_R. We investigate the following question of Huneke: If the sequence of Betti numbers \{\beta_i^R(\omega_R)\} has polynomial growth, must R be Gorenstein? This question is…
Assuming $\rm PFA$, we shall use internally club $\omega_1$-guessing models as side conditions to show that for every tree $T$ of height $\omega_2$ without cofinal branches, there is a proper and $\aleph_2$-preserving forcing notion with…
The preservation theorems for semi-properness, hemi-properness, and pseudo-completeness hold for countable support iterations as well as revised countable support iterations, notwithstanding the fact that the "factor lemma" fails for the…
We study the semiring $\mathbb{N}_0[\alpha]$ as an additive monoid where $\alpha$ is a positive real algebraic number. In the atomic case, the atoms of $\mathbb{N}_0[\alpha]$ are precisely the powers $\alpha^n$ up to a certain nonnegative…
In previous papers on this project a general static logical framework for formalizing and mechanizing set theories of different strength was suggested, and the power of some predicatively acceptable theories in that framework was explored.…
The modal logic of forcing arises when one considers a model of set theory in the context of all its forcing extensions, interpreting necessity as "in all forcing extensions" and possibility as "in some forcing extension". In this modal…
We present reasons for developing a theory of forcing notions which satisfy the properness demand for countable models which are not necessarily elementary submodels of some (H(chi), in). This leads to forcing notions which are…
In this note we show that finitely generated unit $O_X[\sigma]$--modules for $X$ regular and $F$--finite have a minimal root (in the sense of [Lyubeznik, F-modules] Definition~3.6). This problem was posed by Lyubeznik and answered by…
A set $S$ of permutations is forcing if for any sequence $\{\Pi_i\}_{i \in \mathbb{N}}$ of permutations where the density $d(\pi,\Pi_i)$ converges to $\frac{1}{|\pi|!}$ for every permutation $\pi \in S$, it holds that $\{\Pi_i\}_{i \in…
The mean field limit for systems of many fermions is naturally coupled with a semiclassical limit. This makes the analysis of the mean field regime much more involved, compared with bosonic systems. In this paper, we study the dynamics of…
We obtain a relatively simple criterion for when a forcing has the ${<}\,\delta$-approximation property, generalizing a result of Unger. Afterwards we apply this criterion to construct variants of Mitchell Forcing in order to answer…
We establish partial regularity for the $\omega$-minimizers of quasiconvex functionals of power growth. A first-order partial regularity result of $BV$ $\omega$-minimizers is obtained in the linear growth case under a Dini-type condition on…
Single field models of inflation capable to produce primordial black holes usually require a significant departure from the standard, perturbative slow-roll regime. In fact, in many of these scenarios, the size of the slow-roll parameter…
We demonstrate that an expansion of a semi-bounded o-minimal expansion of the ordered group of reals by an increasing geometric progression is locally o-minimal.
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…
System I is a proof language for a fragment of propositional logic where isomorphic propositions, such as $A\wedge B$ and $B\wedge A$, or $A\Rightarrow(B\wedge C)$ and $(A\Rightarrow B)\wedge(A\Rightarrow C)$ are made equal. System I enjoys…
The slow-roll approximation is the usual starting point to study the constraints imposed on the inflaton potential parameters by the observational data. We show that, for a potential exhibiting at least two extrema and giving rise to a…
Many convex problems in machine learning and computer science share the same form: \begin{align*} \min_{x} \sum_{i} f_i( A_i x + b_i), \end{align*} where $f_i$ are convex functions on $\mathbb{R}^{n_i}$ with constant $n_i$, $A_i \in…
We solve a conjecture by Becker et al. (arXiv:2404.05963) on the topic of zero forcing regarding the number of minimal forts of a tree. They conjectured and we prove $\mathcal{F}_{T_n} \le \binom{n}{2} \mathcal{F}_{P_n}$ where…
