We show that for any uncountable cardinal $\lambda$, the category of sets of cardinality at least $\lambda$ and monomorphisms between them cannot appear as the category of point of a topos, in particular is not the category of models of a…
A simplified construction is presented for Komj\'ath's result that for every uncountable cardinal $\kappa$, there are $2^\kappa$ graphs of size $\kappa$ none of them being a minor of another.
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…
Building on work of Holy, L\"ucke and Njegomir \cite{MR3913154} on small embedding characterizations of large cardinals, we use some classical results of Baumgartner (see \cite{MR0384553} and \cite{MR0540770}), to give characterizations of…
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…
Assuming 0^sharp does not exist, kappa is an uncountable cardinal and for all cardinals lambda with kappa <= lambda < kappa^{+ omega}, 2^lambda = lambda^+, we present a ``mini-coding'' between kappa and kappa^{+ omega}. This allows us to…
In this paper, we prove that: if $\kappa$ is supercompact and the $\mathsf{HOD}$ Hypothesis holds, then there is a proper class of regular cardinals in $V_{\kappa}$ which are measurable in $\mathsf{HOD}$. Woodin also proved this result. As…
We show that the definition of caliber given by Engelking in R. Engelking, "General topology", Sigma series in pure mathematics, Heldermann, vol. 6, 1989, which we will call caliber*, differs from the traditional notion of this concept in…
In their paper from 1981, Milner and Sauer conjectured that for any poset P, if cf(P)=lambda>cf(lambda)=kappa, then P must contain an antichain of size kappa. We prove that for lambda>cf(lambda)=kappa, if there exists a cardinal mu<lambda…
We show that it is consistent relative to a huge cardinal that for all infinite cardinals $\kappa$, $\square_\kappa$ holds and there is a stationary $S \subseteq \kappa^+$ such that $\mathrm{NS}_{\kappa^+} \restriction S$ is…
We show that the tree property, stationary reflection and the failure of approachability at $\kappa^{++}$ are consistent with $\mathfrak{u}(\kappa) = \kappa^+ < 2^\kappa$, where $\kappa$ is a singular strong limit cardinal with the…
For an uncountable regular cardinal \kappa we let \nabla_\kappa(A) be the statement that A \subset \kappa and for all regular \theta > \kappa, the set of all X \in [\theta]^<\kappa such that X \cap \kappa \in \kappa and otp(X \cap OR) is a…
We define a generic Vop\v{e}nka cardinal to be an inaccessible cardinal $\kappa$ such that for every first-order language $\mathcal{L}$ of cardinality less than $\kappa$ and every set $\mathscr{B}$ of $\mathcal{L}$-structures, if…
For $G$ a finite group, let $\kappa(G)$ be the probability that $\sigma,\tau\in G$ are conjugate, when $\sigma$ and $\tau$ are chosen independently and uniformly at random. In this paper, we extend the methods of Blackburn et al [2012] to…
We propose a parameterized proxy principle from which $\kappa$-Souslin trees with various additional features can be constructed, regardless of the identity of $\kappa$. We then introduce the microscopic approach, which is a simple method…
Small forcing always ruins the indestructibility of an indestructible supercompact cardinal. In fact, after small forcing, any cardinal $\kappa$ becomes superdestructible---any further ${<}\kappa$-closed forcing which adds a subset to…
In this paper, we characterize the possible cofinalities of the least $\lambda$-strongly compact cardinal. We show that, on the one hand, for any regular cardinal, $\delta$, that carries a $\lambda$-complete uniform ultrafilter, it is…
Let $S$ be a compact infinite set in the complex plane with $0\notin{S}$, and let $R_n$ be the minimal residual polynomial on $S$, i.e., the minimal polynomial of degree at most $n$ on $S$ with respect to the supremum norm provided that…
This paper makes significant progress towards resolving a conjecture relating strong forcing axioms like $PFA$ and the derived model at a limit of Woodin cardinals $\kappa$. In particular, using a concept called Covering Matrices, we show…
Let $\kappa$ be an uncountable cardinal with $\kappa=\kappa^{{<}\kappa}$. Given a cardinal $\mu$, we equip the set ${}^\kappa\mu$ consisting of all functions from $\kappa$ to $\mu$ with the topology whose basic open sets consist of all…
