We study projective manifolds with nonamenable and non-residually finite fundamental groups. We generalize the uniformization theorem of our earlier note. We generalize a classical theorem of Maltsev about finitely generated subgroups of…
In this series of papers we advance Ramsey theory of colorings over partitions. In this part, we concentrate on anti-Ramsey relations, or, as they are better known, strong colorings, and in particular solve two problems from [CKS21]. It is…
Inspired by Bartoszy\'nski's work on small sets, we introduce a new ideal defined by interval partitions on natural numbers and summable sequences of positive reals. Similarly, we present another ideal that relies on Bartoszy\'nski's and…
Assuming an abstract comparison principle called the Ultrapower Axiom, which is motivated by the comparison process of inner model theory and generalizes the statement that the Mitchell order is linear on normal ultrafilters, we…
We propose a unifying general (i.e. not assuming the mapping to have any particular structure) view on the theory of regularity and clarify the relationships between the existing primal and dual quantitative sufficient and necessary…
We prove multiple generalizations of Fan's combinatorial labeling result for sphere triangulations. This can be seen as a comprehensive extension of the Borsuk--Ulam theorem. In typical applications, the Borsuk--Ulam theorem gives…
We introduce a new categorical and constructive foundation for analytic approximation based on a Contextual Choice Principle (CCP), which enforces locality and compatibility in the construction of mathematical objects. Central to our…
We find many conditions equivalent to the model-theoretical property $\lambda \stackrel{\kappa}{\Rightarrow} \mu$ introduced in [L1]. Our conditions involve uniformity of ultrafilters, compactness properties of products of topological…
Normal ideals on regular uncountable cardinals are familiar objects. We investigate ideals that are pleasant--while a normal ideal is closed under arbitrary diagonal unions, a pleasant ideal is closed only under diagonal unions indexed by…
We obtain strong coloring theorems at successors of singular cardinals from failures of certain instances of simultaneous reflection of stationary sets. Along the way, we establish new results in club-guessing and in the general theory of…
We generalize the results from "P. Lipparini, Productive $[\lambda,\mu]$-compactness and regular ultrafilters, Topology Proceedings, 21 (1996), 161--171"; in particular the present results apply to singular cardinals, too.
We introduce the notion of $\mathcal{C}$-system of filters, generalizing the standard definitions of both extenders and towers of normal ideals. This provides a framework to develop the theory of extenders and towers in a more general and…
Galeotti, Khomskii and V\"a\"an\"aanen recently introduced the notion of the upward L\"owenheim-Skolem-Tarski number for a logic, strengthening the classical notion of a Hanf number. A cardinal $\kappa$ is the \emph{upward…
For a free ultrafilter U on omega we study several cardinal characteristics which describe part of the combinatorial structure of U. We provide various consistency results; e.g. we show how to force simultaneously many characters and many…
We study and classify topologically invariant sigma-ideals with an analytic base on Euclidean spaces and evaluate the cardinal characteristics of such ideals.
Generalizing Keisler's notion of regularity for ultrafilters, Taylor introduced degrees of regularity for ideals and showed that a countably complete nonregular ideal on $\omega_1$ must be somewhere $\omega_1$-dense. We prove a dichotomy…
A group topology is said to be linear if open subgroups form a base of neighborhoods of the identity element. It is proved that the existence of a nondiscrete extremally disconnected group of Ulam nonmeasurable cardinality with linear…
The notions of bounded expansion and nowhere denseness not only offer robust and general definitions of uniform sparseness of graphs, they also describe the tractability boundary for several important algorithmic questions. In this paper we…
The aim of the note is to extend the uniformization theorem to compact Kahler spaces X with mild singularities and establish a kind of rigidity of their universal coverings. We assume the fundamental group of X is large, residually finite…
We generalize to the relations $(\lambda, \mu) \stackrel{\kappa}{\Rightarrow} (\lambda', \mu')$ and $\alm (\lambda, \mu) \stackrel{\kappa}{\Rightarrow} \alm (\lambda', \mu')$ some results obtained in Parts II and IV. We also present a…
