Let ${\bf x}=(x_n)_n$ be a sequence in a Banach space. A set $A\subseteq \mathbb{N}$ is perfectly bounded, if there is $M$ such that $\|\sum_{n\in F}x_n\|\leq M$ for every finite $F\subseteq A$. The collection $B({\bf x})$ of all perfectly…
In the absence of the axiom of choice, the set-theoretic status of many natural statements about metrizable compact spaces is investigated. Some of the statements are provable in $\mathbf{ZF}$, some are shown to be independent of…
Until recently, it was an important open problem in Fractal Geometry to determine whether there exists an iterated function system acting on $\mathbb{R}$ with no exact overlaps for which cylinders are super-exponentially close at all small…
A set $F$ of formulas is complete relative to a given class of logics, if every logic from this class can be axiomatized by formulas from $F$. A set of formulas $F$ is {\L}-complete relative to a given class of logics, if every logic of…
We provide a counterexample to the Category Dichotomy in the framework of $\textsf{ZFC}$. That is, we prove the existence of an ideal on $\omega$ that is not Kat\v{e}tov below $\mathsf{nwd}$ and does not have restrictions above…
We show that a not necessarily closed ideal in a C*-algebra is semiprime if and only if it is idempotent, if and only if it is closed under square roots of positive elements. Among other things, it follows that prime and semiprime ideals in…
We give the first (ZFC) dividing line in Keisler's order among the unstable theories, specifically among the simple unstable theories. That is, for any infinite cardinal $\lambda$ for which there is $\mu < \lambda \leq 2^\mu$, we construct…
If $\mathcal P$ is a family of filters over some set $I$, a topological space $X$ is \emph{sequencewise $\mathcal P$-\brfrt compact} if, for every $I$-indexed sequence of elements of $X$, there is $F \in \mathcal P$ such that the sequence…
Given a set $X$, the power set $\mathbb{P}(X)$, and a finite poset $P$, a family $F\subset \mathbb{P}(X)$ is said to be induced-$P$-free if there is no injection $\phi: P\rightarrow \mathbb{F}$ such that $\phi(p)\subseteq\phi(q)$ if and…
Let $G$ be a finite group and $\sigma_1(G)=\frac{1}{|G|}\sum_{H\leq G}\,|H|$. In this paper, we prove that if $\sigma_1(G)<2+\frac{11}{|G|}$\,, then $G$ is supersolvable. In particular, some new characterizations of the well-known groups…
A proper ideal $I$ in a commutative ring with unity is called a $z^\circ$-ideal if for each $a$ in $I$, the intersection of all minimal prime ideals in $R$ which contain $a$ is contained in $I$. For any totally ordered field $F$ and a…
All spaces are assumed to be separable and metrizable. Our main result is that the statement "For every space $X$, every closed subset of $X$ has the perfect set property if and only if every analytic subset of $X$ has the perfect set…
A subgroup $A$ of a finite group $G$ is said to be a $CAP$-subgroup of $G$, if for any chief factor $H/K$ of $G$, either $A H= AK$ or $A\cap H = A \cap K$. Let $p$ be a prime, $S$ be a $p$-group and $\mathcal{F}$ be a saturated fusion…
We show that any smooth permutation $\sigma\in S_n$ is characterized by the set ${\mathbf{C}}(\sigma)$ of transpositions and $3$-cycles in the Bruhat interval $(S_n)_{\leq\sigma}$, and that $\sigma$ is the product (in a certain order) of…
We develop a general framework for forcing with coherent adequate sets on $H(\lambda)$ as side conditions, where $\lambda \ge \omega_2$ is a cardinal of uncountable cofinality. We describe a class of forcing posets which we call coherent…
We present the classical theory of preservation of $\sqsubset$-unbounded families in generic extensions by ccc posets, where $\sqsubset$ is a definable relation of certain type on spaces of real numbers, typically associated with some…
Given an ideal $\mathcal{I}$ on $\omega$, we prove that a sequence in a topological space $X$ is $\mathcal{I}$-convergent if and only if there exists a ``big'' $\mathcal{I}$-convergent subsequence. Then, we study several properties and show…
Given a C*-algebra B which is graded over a discrete group G we consider ideals of B which are invariant under the projections onto each of the grading subspaces. If G is exact and the standard conditional expectation of B is faithful we…
We show under $\sf{ZF} + \sf{DC} + \sf{AD}_{\mathbb{R}}$ that every set of reals is $I$-regular for any $\sigma$-ideal $I$ on the Baire space $\omega^{\omega}$ such that $\mathbb{P}_I$ is proper. This answers the question of Khomskii. We…
Let $\mathcal{I}$ be an ideal on $\omega$. For $f,g\in\omega^\omega$ we write $f \leq_{\mathcal{I}} g$ if $f(n) \leq g(n)$ for all $n\in\omega\setminus A$ with some $A\in\mathcal{I}$. Moreover, we denote…
