We present an overview of results on the question of whether the non-stationary ideal of an uncountable regular cardinal $\kappa$ can be defined by a $\Pi_1$-formula using parameters of hereditary cardinality at most $\kappa$. These results…

For a topological space $X$, let $X_\delta$ be the space $X$ with $G_\delta$-topology of $X$. For an uncountable cardinal $\kappa$, we prove that the following are equivalent: (1) $\kappa$ is $\omega_1$-strongly compact. (2) For every…

Assuming the existence of $\mathfrak c$ incomparable selective ultrafilters, we classify the non-torsion Abelian groups of cardinality $\mathfrak c$ that admit a countably compact group topology. We show that for each $\kappa \in [\mathfrak…

Assuming that there is no inner model with a Woodin cardinal, we obtain a characterization of $\lambda$-tall cardinals in extender models that are iterable. In particular we prove that in such extender models, a cardinal $\kappa$ is a tall…

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…

If G is a locally essential subgroup of a compact abelian group K, then: (i) t(G)=w(G)=w(K), where t(G) is the tightness of G; (ii) if G is radial, then K must be metrizable; (iii) G contains a super-sequence S converging to 0 such that…

In the original version of this paper, we assume a theory $T$ that the logic $\mathbb L_{\kappa, \aleph_{0}}$ is categorical in a cardinal $\lambda > \kappa$, and $\kappa$ is a measurable cardinal. There we prove that the class of model of…

For a cardinal $\kappa > \omega$ a metric space $X$ is called to be $\kappa$-superuniversal whenever for every metric space $Y$ with $|Y| < \kappa$ every partial isometry from a subset of $Y$ into $X$ can be extended over the whole space…

It is well-known that the consistency strength of the GCH failing at a measurable cardinal is the existence of a cardinal $\kappa$ with $o(\kappa)=\kappa^{++}$. As the literature does not contain more than a proof sketch of the lower bound…

We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions when a pseudocompact paratopological group is topological. (2-)pseudocompact and countably compact paratopological groups that are not topological are constructed. It is proved that each…

Assuming an instance of the Brodsky-Rinot proxy principle holding at a regular uncountable cardinal $\kappa$, we construct $2^\kappa$-many pairwise non-embeddable minimal non-$\sigma$-scattered linear orders of size $\kappa$. In particular,…

Definition. Let $\kappa$ be an infinite cardinal, let {X(i)} be a (not necessarily faithfully indexed) set of topological spaces, and let X be the product of the spaces X(i). The $\kappa$-box product topology on X is the topology generated…

A measure-scaling quasi-isometry between two connected graphs is a quasi-isometry that is quasi-$\kappa$-to-one in a natural sense for some $\kappa>0$. For non-amenable graphs, all quasi-isometries are quasi-$\kappa$-to-one for any…

Extending a result of the first author and Katsura, we prove that for every UHF algebra $A$ of infinite type, in every uncountable cardinality $\kappa$ there are $2^\kappa$ nonisomorphic approximately matricial C*-algebras with the same…

We introduce the notion of weakly extendible cardinals and show that these cardinals are characterized in terms of weak compactness of second order logic. The consistency strength and largeness of weakly extendible cardinals are located…

Assume that there is no quasi-measurable cardinal smaller than $2^\omega$. ($\kappa$ is quasi measurable if there exists $\kappa $-additive ideal $\ci $ of subsets of $\kappa $ such that the Boolean algebra $P(\kappa)/\ci$ satisfies c.c.c.)…

Let $\mathcal M_X$ denote the ideal of meager subsets of a topological space $X$. We prove that if $X$ is a completely metrizable space without isolated points, then the smallest cardinality of a non-meager subset of $X$, denoted…

The main result of this paper is to show that, if $\kappa$ is the smallest real-valued measurable cardinal not greater than $ 2^{\aleph_0}$, then there exists a complete metric space of cardinality not greater than $ 2^{\kappa}$ admitting a…

Two graphs are of the same topological type if they can be mutually embedded into each other topologically. We show that there are exactly $\aleph_1$ distinct topological types of countable trees. In general, for any infinite cardinal…

(1) Every infinite, Abelian compact (Hausdorff) group K admits 2^|K|-many dense, non-Haar-measurable subgroups of cardinality |K|. When K is nonmetrizable, these may be chosen to be pseudocompact. (2) Every infinite Abelian group G admits a…
