In the present paper we prove several results concerning the existence of low-discrepancy point sets with respect to an arbitrary non-uniform measure $\mu$ on the $d$-dimensional unit cube. We improve a theorem of Beck, by showing that for…
We study $3d$ $\mathcal{N}=4$ quiver gauge theories with gauge nodes forming a $D_n$ Dynkin diagram. The class of good $D_n$ Dynkin quivers is completely characterised and the moduli space singularity structure fully determined for all such…
Strong reflection principles with the reflection cardinal $\leq\aleph_1$ or $<2^{\aleph_0}$ imply that the size of the continuum is either $\aleph_1$ or $\aleph_2$ or very large. Thus, the stipulation, that a strong reflection principle…
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…
We show that Vopenka's Principle and Vopenka cardinals are indestructible under reverse Easton forcing iterations of increasingly directed-closed partial orders, without the need for any preparatory forcing. As a consequence, we are able to…
The notion of stationary reflection is one of the most important notions of combinatorial set theory. We investigate weak reflection, which is, as the name suggests, a weak version of stationary reflection. This sort of reflection was…
In this paper, we obtain the consistency, relative to large cardinals, of the existence of dense ideals on every successor of a regular cardinal simultaneously. Using a consequent transfer principle, we show that in this model there is a…
We prove a new version of the Uncertainty Principle of the form $\int |f|^2 \lesssim \int_{E^c} |f|^2 + \int_{\Sigma ^c}|\hat f|^2 $ where the sets $E$ and $\Sigma$ are $\epsilon$-thin in the following sense: $|E \cap D(x, \rho_1(x))| \le…
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 consider mainly the following version of set theory:"ZF + DC and for every $\lambda,\lambda^{\aleph_0}$ is well ordered", our thesis is that this is a reasonable set theory, e.g. much can be said. In particular, we prove that for a…
We introduce a forcing that adds a $\square(\aleph_2,\aleph_0)$-sequence with countable conditions under CH. Assuming the consistency of a weakly compact cardinal, we can find a forcing extension by our new poset in which both…
We introduce a new inner model $C(aa)$ arising from stationary logic. We show that assuming a proper class of Woodin cardinals, or alternatively $MM^{++}$, the regular uncountable cardinals of $V$ are measurable in the inner model $C(aa)$,…
We study closure properties of measurable ultrapowers with respect to Hamkin's notion of "freshness" and show that the extent of these properties highly depends on the combinatorial properties of the underlying model of set theory. In one…
We study Medvedev reducibility in the context of set theory -- specifically, forcing and large cardinal hypotheses. Answering a question of Hamkins and Li \cite{HaLi}, we show that the Medvedev degrees of countable ordinals are far from…
A matching prior at level $1-\alpha$ is a prior such that an associated $1-\alpha$ credible set is also a $1-\alpha$ confidence set. We study the existence of matching priors for general families of credible regions. Our main result gives…
We show that the consistency of $\mathrm{ZF} + \mathrm{AD}_{\mathbb{R}} + ``\Theta$ is measurable$"$ implies the consistency of $\mathrm{ZF} +``\Theta$ is the least strongly regular cardinal and the least measurable cardinal$"$ + $``$all…
We show that an earlier conjecture of the author, on diophantine approximation of rational points on varieties, implies the ``abc conjecture'' of Masser and Oesterl'e. In fact, a weak form of the former conjecture is sufficient, involving…
A classical theorem of Luzin is that the separation principle holds for the Pi^0_alpha sets but fails for the Sigma^0_alpha sets. We show that for every Sigma^0_alpha set A which is not Pi^0_alpha there exists a Sigma^0_alpha set B which is…
The property of being selectively separable is well-studied and generalizations such as H-separable and wH-separable have also generated much interest. Bardyla, Maesano, and Zdomskyy proved from Martin's Axiom that there are countable…
We show that the statement ``In every separable pseudometric space there is a maximal non-strictly \delta-separated set.'' implies the axiom of choice for countable families of sets. This gives answers to a question of Dybowski and…
