We prove that Vop\v{e}nka's Principle implies that for every class $\mathfrak{X}$ of modules over any ring, the class of \textbf{$\boldsymbol{\mathfrak{X}}$-Gorenstein Projective modules}…
Let $G$ be a connected and simply connected semisimple algebraic group over $\Bbb Q$ and let $\Gamma\subset G(\Bbb Q)$ be an arithmetic subgroup. Let $K_\infty\subset G(\Bbb R)$ be a maximal compact subgroup and let $d$ be the dimension of…
This paper defines a Mitchell rank for supercompact cardinals. If $\kappa$ is a $\theta$-supercompact cardinal then $o_{\theta-sc}(\kappa) = \sup \{ o_{\theta-sc}(\mu) + 1 \ | \ \mu \in m(\kappa)\}$, where $m(\kappa)$ is the collection of…
We give the definition of Woodin for strong compactness cardinals, the Woodinised version of strong compactness, and we prove an analogue of Magidor's identity crisis theorem for the first strongly compact cardinal.
It is shown that $u_k \cdot v_k$ converges weakly to $u\cdot v$ if $u_k\weakto u$ weakly in $L^p$ and $v_k\weakly v$ weakly in $L^q$ with $p, q\in (1,\infty)$, $1/p+1/q=1$, under the additional assumptions that the sequences $\Div u_k$ and…
Bounded weak solutions to a particular class of degenerate parabolic cross-diffusion systems are shown to coincide with the unique strong solution determined by the same initial condition on the maximal existence interval of the latter. The…
We prove that SVP$_p$ is NP-hard to approximate within a factor of $2^{\log^{1 - \varepsilon} n}$, for all constants $\varepsilon > 0$ and $p > 2$, under standard deterministic Karp reductions. This result is also the first proof that…
In this paper we investigate more characterizations and applications of $\delta$-strongly compact cardinals. We show that, for a cardinal $\kappa$ the following are equivalent: (1) $\kappa$ is $\delta$-strongly compact, (2) For every…
Hellsten \cite{MR2026390} proved that when $\kappa$ is $\Pi^1_n$-indescribable, the \emph{$n$-club} subsets of $\kappa$ provide a filter base for the $\Pi^1_n$-indescribability ideal, and hence can also be used to give a characterization of…
Given a Woodin cardinal $\delta$, I show that if $F$ is any Easton function with $F"\delta\subseteq\delta$ and $\GCH$ holds, then there is a cofinality-preserving forcing extension in which $2^\gamma= F(\gamma)$ for each regular cardinal…
We introduce trace definability, a weak notion of interpretability, and trace equivalence, a weak notion of equivalence for first order structures and theories. In particular we get an interesting weak equivalence notion for $\mathrm{NIP}$…
Super-strong (elsewhere referred to as strong) Wilf equivalence is a type of Wilf equivalence on words that was introduced by Kitaev et al. in 2009. We provide a necessary and sufficient condition for two permutations in $n$ letters to be…
Let $\mathbb{B}$ be a complete Boolean algebra. We show, as an application of a previous result of the author, that if $\lambda$ is an infinite cardinal and $\mathbb{B}$ is weakly $(\lambda^\omega, \omega)$-distributive, then $\mathbb{B}$…
The paper studies the problem of the cofibrant generation of a model category. We prove that, assuming Vop\v{e}nka's principle, every cofibrantly generated model category is Quillen equivalent to a combinatorial model category. We discuss…
Can a supercompact cardinal kappa be Laver indestructible when there is a level-by-level agreement between strong compactness and supercompactness? In this article, we show that if there is a sufficiently large cardinal above kappa, then…
This thesis is devoted to the proof of a theorem showing the existence of a closed model category structure for weakly enriched categories. It requires first of all the definitions of weakly enriched categories and equivalences of weakly…
Introducing unfoldable cardinals last year, Andres Villaveces ingeniously extended the notion of weak compactness to a larger context, thereby producing a large cardinal notion, unfoldability, with some of the feel and flavor of weak…
In this paper we study the notion of strong non-reflection, and its contrapositive weak reflection. We say theta strongly non-reflects at lambda iff there is a function F: theta ---> lambda such that for all alpha < theta with cf(alpha)=…
In a graph $\Gamma=(V,E)$, we consider the common closed neighbourhood of a subset of vertices and use this notion to introduce a Moore closure operator in $V.$ We also consider the closed twin equivalence relation in which two vertices are…
Many definitions of weak n-category have been proposed. It has been widely observed that each of these definitions is of one of two types: algebraic definitions, in which composites and coherence cells are explicitly specified, and…
