Let $s \in [0,1]$. We show that a Borel set $N \subset \mathbb{R}^{2}$ whose every point is linearly accessible by an $s$-dimensional family of lines has Hausdorff dimension at most $2 - s$.
A first-order expansion of the $\mathbb{R}$-vector space structure on $\mathbb{R}$ does not define every compact subset of every $\mathbb{R}^n$ if and only if topological and Hausdorff dimension coincide on all closed definable sets.…
We present a self-contained analysis of infinity from two mathematical perspectives: set theory and algebra. We begin with cardinal and ordinal numbers, examining deep questions such as the continuum hypothesis, along with foundational…
We show that the set of Liouville numbers is either null or non-$\sigma$-finite with respect to every translation invariant Borel measure on $\RR$, in particular, with respect to every Hausdorff measure $\iH^g$ with gauge function $g$. This…
We prove that if $\leq$ is an analytic partial order then either $\leq$ can be extended to a (boldface) $\Delta^1_2$ linear order similar to an antichain in $2^{<\omega_1}$ ordered lexicographically or a certain Borel partial order $\leq_0$…
It is proved that, on any Abelian group of infinite cardinality ${\bf m}$, there exist precisely $2^{2^{\bf m}}$ nonequivalent bounded Hausdorff group topologies. Under the continuum hypothesis, the number of nonequivalent compact and…
We prove that, for every n, the topological space {\omega}_n^{\omega} (where {\omega}_n has the discrete topology) can be partitioned into {\omega}_n copies of the Baire space. Using this fact, the authors then prove two new theorems about…
Let $[a_1(x),a_2(x), a_3(x),\cdots]$ denote the continued fraction expansion of a real number $x \in [0,1)$. This paper is concerned with certain exceptional sets of the Borel-Bernstein Theorem on the growth rate of $\{a_n(x)\}_{n\geq1}$.…
The aim of this paper is to consider questions concerning the possible maximum cardinality of various separable pseudoradial (in short: SP) spaces. The most intriguing question here is if there is, in ZFC, a regular (or just Hausdorff) SP…
We investigate the unbalanced ordinary partition relations of the form $\lambda \rightarrow {(\lambda, \alpha)}^{2}$ for various values of the cardinal $\lambda$ and the ordinal $\alpha$. For example, we show that for every infinite…
The monadic theory of $(\mathbb R,\le)$ with quantification restricted to Borel sets is decidable. The Boolean combinations of $F_\sigma$ sets form an elementary substructure of the Borel sets. Under determinacy hypotheses, the proof…
Answering one of the main questions of [FHK14, Chapter 7], we show that there is a tight connection between the depth of a classifiable shallow theory $T$ and the Borel rank of the isomorphism relation $\cong^\kappa_T$ on its models of size…
We systematically develop analogs of basic concepts from classical descriptive set theory in the context of pointless topology. Our starting point is to take the elements of the free complete Boolean algebra generated by the frame…
In the context of generalized descriptive set theory, we systematically compare and analyze various notions of Polish-like spaces and standard $\kappa$-Borel spaces for $\kappa$ an uncountable (regular) cardinal satisfying $\kappa^{<\kappa}…
We prove that the category $\mathsf{SBor}$ of standard Borel spaces is the (bi-)initial object in the 2-category of countably complete Boolean (countably) extensive categories. This means that $\mathsf{SBor}$ is the universal category…
For a countable ordinal epsilon we construct a Sigma^0_2 subset of the Cantor space for which one may force aleph_epsilon translations with intersections of size 2i, but such that it has no perfect set of such translations in any ccc…
For two sets $A$ and $M$ of positive integers and for a positive integer $n$, let $p(n,A,M)$ denote the number of partitions of $n$ with parts in $A$ and multiplicities in $M$, that is, the number of representations of $n$ in the form…
In this paper, we introduce a natural geometric extension of the partition function. More precisely, we investigate the problem of counting partitions of a rectangle into rectangular blocks with integer sides. Here, two partitions of a…
Let $X$ be a set of cardinality $\kappa$ such that $\kappa^\omega=\kappa$. We prove that the linear algebra $\mathbb{R}^X$ (or $\mathbb{C}^X$) contains a free linear algebra with $2^\kappa$ generators. Using this, we prove several…
We prove in this paper that there exists some infinitary rational relations which are Sigma^0_3-complete Borel sets and some others which are Pi^0_3-complete. This implies that there exists some infinitary rational relations which are…
