We show that if $f$ is a nonzero, noninvertible function on a smooth complex variety $X$ and $J_f$ is the Jacobian ideal of $f$, then ${\rm lct}(f,J_f^2)>1$ if and only if the hypersurface defined by $f$ has rational singularities.…
We construct a model in which all $C$-sequences are trivial, yet there exists a $\kappa$-Souslin tree with full vanishing levels. This answers a question of Lambie-Hanson and Rinot, and provides an optimal combination of compactness and…
We consider polynomial maps, which we call degree $d$-linear maps, that satisfy the Jacobian condition. We prove that certain infinite families of elements, which appear in the coefficients of the formal inverse of such maps, are in the…
The basic result of this note is a statement about the existence of families of partitions of the set of natural numbers with some favourable properties, the n-optimal matrices of partitions. We use this to improve a decomposition result…
The general Markov model of the evolution of biological sequences along a tree leads to a parameterization of an algebraic variety. Understanding this variety and the polynomials, called phylogenetic invariants, which vanish on it, is a…
Symmetric Jacobi matrices on one sided homogeneous trees are studied. Essential selfadjointness of these matrices turns out to depend on the structure of the tree. If a tree has one end and infinitely many origin points the matrix is always…
In this paper, we obtain the consistency, relative to large cardinals, of the existence of dense ideals on every successor of a regular cardinal simultaneously. Using a consequent transfer principle, we show that in this model there is a…
Assume GCH and let $\lambda$ denote an uncountable cardinal. We prove that if $\square_\lambda$ holds, then this may be witnessed by a coherent sequence $< C_\alpha | \alpha < \lambda^+ >$ with the following remarkable guessing property:…
We introduce a natural generalization of Borel's Conjecture. For each infinite cardinal number $\kappa$, let {\sf BC}$_{\kappa}$ denote this generalization. Then ${\sf BC}_{\aleph_0}$ is equivalent to the classical Borel conjecture.…
We revisit several results concerning club principles and nonsaturation of the nonstationary ideal, attempting to improve them in various ways. So we typically deal with a (non necessarily normal) ideal $J$ extending the nonstationary ideal…
We show that the reduced cofinality of the nonstationary ideal NS_kappa on a regular uncountable cardinal kappa may be less than its cofinality, where the reduced cofinality of NS_kappa is the least cardinality of any family F of…
In this paper we introduce a tree-like forcing notion extending some properties of the random forcing in the context of the generalised Cantor space and study its associated ideal of null sets and notion of measurability. This issue was…
Since being isolated by Viale and Weiss in 2009, the Guessing Model Property has emerged as a particularly prominent and powerful consequence of the Proper Forcing Axiom. In this paper, we investigate connections between variations of the…
We give a necessary and sufficient condition for the following property of an integer $d\in\mathbb N$ and a pair $(a,A)\in\mathbb R^2$: There exist $\kappa > 0$ and $Q_0\in\mathbb N$ such that for all $\mathbf x\in \mathbb R^d$ and $Q\geq…
We prove a result relating the Jacobian ideal and the generalized test ideal associated to a principal ideal in $R=k[x_1,...,x_n]$ with $[k:k^p]<\infty$ or in $R=k[[x_1,...,x_n]]$ with an arbitrary field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$. As a…
Let kappa be the limit of <kappa_n : n<omega> (1) if each kappa_n carries an extender of the length of the first Mahlo above kappa_n, then for every ld above kappa there is a generic extension with power of kappa above ld. (2) if each…
Let $K$ be a complete discretely valued field with the residue field $\kappa$. Assume that cohomological dimension of $\kappa$ is less than or equal to $1$ (for example, $\kappa$ is an algebraically closed field or a finite field). Let $F$…
We show that the existence of an almost Souslin Kurepa tree is consistent with $ZFC$. We also prove their existence in $L$. These results answer two questions from Zakrzewski.
We construct a large family of normal $\kappa$-complete $\mathbb{R}_\kappa$-embeddable non-special $\kappa^+$-Aronszajn trees which have no club isomorphic subtrees using an instance of the proxy principle of Brodsky-Rinot.
In this paper, we show that for any integer $k \in \mathbb{N}$ there exists a Sobolev sheaf (in the sense of Lebeau) on any definable site of $\mathbb{R}^2$ that agrees with Sobolev spaces on cuspidal domains. We also provide a complete…
