We provide a new proof of ``most" cases of the polynomial Wiener-Wintner theorem for $\sigma$-finite spaces, using hard-analytic methods. Specifically, we prove that whenever $(X,\mu,T)$ is a $\sigma$-finite measure-preserving system, and…

We show that Kelley-Morse set theory does not prove the class Fodor principle, the assertion that every regressive class function $F:S\to\text{Ord}$ defined on a stationary class $S$ is constant on a stationary subclass. Indeed, it is…

We investigate the existence of a class of ZFC-provably total recursive unary functions, given certain constraints, and apply some of those results to show that, for $\Sigma_1$-sound set theory, ZFC$\not\vdash P<NP$.

We show that in the theory ZF + DC + for every cardinal {\lambda}, the set of infinite subsets of {\lambda} is well-ordered (i.e., Shelah's AX4), the {\theta}-function measuring the surjective size of the powersets P({\kappa}) can take…

In 1891 Cantor presented two proofs with the purpose to establish a general theorem that any set can be replaced by a set of greater power. Cantor's power set theorem can be considered to be an extension of Cantor's 1891 second proof and…

For more than a century, Cantor's theory of transfinite numbers has played a pivotal role in set theory, with ramifications that extend to many areas of mathematics. This article extends earlier findings with a fresh look at the critical…

Several nonexistence results on generalized bent functions $f:Z_{2}^{n} \rightarrow Z_{m}$ presented by using some knowledge on cyclotomic number fields and their imaginary quadratic subfields.

We apply an inductive argument to three theorems of Cantor on (1) the uncountability of infinite binary sequences, (2) the uncountability of real numbers, and (3) the non-equinumerosity of sets with their powersets. This technique proves…

A proof of the continuous martingale convergence theorem is provided. It relies on a classical martingale inequality and the almost sure convergence of a uniformly bounded non-negative super-martingale, after a truncation argument.

In this paper it is proved that, when $Q$ is a quiver that admits some closure, for any algebraically closed field $K$ and any finite dimensional $K$-linear representation $\mathcal{X}$ of $Q$, if ${\rm Ext}^1_{KQ}(\mathcal{X},KQ)=0$ then…

This article explores the model-dependent nature of set cardinality, emphasizing that cardinality is not absolute but varies across different axiomatic frameworks. Although Cantor's diagonal argument shows the real numbers are…

We prove a Freiman--Ruzsa-type theorem with polynomial bounds in arbitrary abelian groups with bounded torsion, thereby proving (in full generality) a conjecture of Marton. Specifically, let $G$ be an abelian group of torsion $m$ (meaning…

We define $\lambda(r)$-convergence, which is a generalization of nontangential convergence in the unit disc. We prove Fatou-type theorems on almost everywhere nontangential convergence of Poisson-Stiltjes integrals for general kernels…

Cantor sets are constructed from iteratively removing sections of intervals. This process yields a cumulative distribution function (CDF), constructed from the invariant measure associated with their iterated function systems. Under…

A pattern is called universal in another collection of sets, when every set in the collection contains some linear and translated copy of the original pattern. Paul Erd\H{o}s proposed a conjecture that no infinite set is universal in the…

By using a multiscale analysis, we establish quantitative versions of the Besicovitch projection theorem (almost every projection of a purely unrectifiable set in the plane of finite length has measure zero) and a standard companion result,…

ZFC has sentences that quantify over all sets or all ordinals, without restriction. Some have argued that sentences of this kind lack a determinate meaning. We propose a set theory called TOPS, using Natural Deduction, that avoids this…

Goal. We analyze when the Partition Principle ($\mathsf{PP}$) holds without $\mathsf{AC}$ in models arising from a free finite $H$-action on Cantor space, and reconcile two standard routes to such models. Approach. Route I proceeds via a…

In this article we proved so-called strong reflection principles corresponding to formal theories Th which has omega-models. An posible generalization of the Lob's theorem is considered.Main results is: (1) let $k$ be an inaccessible…

It is well known that ZFC, despite its usefulness as a foundational theory for mathematics, has two unwanted features: it cannot be written down explicitly due to its infinitely many axioms, and it has a countable model due to the…
