In this article, we consider the notion of almost irredundant sets: A subset $\mathcal{X}$ of a C*-algebra $\mathcal{A}$ is called almost irredundant if and only if for every $a\in \mathcal{X}$, the element $a$ does not belong to the…
We prove that the boundary of every multigeometric Cantorval is a null set, and extend this result to a larger class of standard achievable Cantorvals. In addition, we discuss the sets of uniqueness of achievement sets and show that they…
We prove that for any Borel probability measure $\mu$ on $\mathbb R^n$ there exists a set $X\subset \mathbb R^n$ of $n+1$ points such that any $n$-variate quadratic polynomial $P$ that is nonnegative on $X$ (i.e. $P(x)\geq 0$, for every $x…
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…
In this paper we look at the topological type of algebraic sum of achievement sets. We show that there is a Cantorval such that the algebraic sum of its $k$ copies is still a Cantorval for any $k \in \mathbb{N}$. We also prove that for any…
We prove that if $A,B$ are compact subsets of $\mathbb{R}$ such that the upper density of $B$ is positive at every point of $B$, then there is a closed null set $N\subset A$ such that $N+B=A+B$. As a corollary we find that if $A,B\subset…
We show that the CAR algebra admits a Cantor spectrum C*-diagonal that is not conjugate to the standard AF diagonal. We obtain this by classification theory of C*-algebras, and the diagonal arises by realising the CAR algebra as the crossed…
We construct a large class of pathological $n$-dimensional topological spheres in ${\mathbb R}^{n+1}$ by showing that for any Cantor set $C\subset {\mathbb R}^{n+1}$ there is a topological embedding $f:{\mathbb S}^n\to{\mathbb R}^{n+1}$ of…
Let $T$ be a positive closed current of bidimension $(1,1)$ with unit mass on the complex projective space $\mathbb P^2$. For $\alpha > 2/5$ and $\beta = (2-2\alpha)/3$ we show that if $T$ has four point with Lelong number greater than…
We characterize the structural impediments to the existence of Borel perfect matchings for acyclic locally countable Borel graphs admitting a Borel selection of finitely many ends from their connected components. In particular, this yields…
This article could be called "theme and variations" on Cantor's celebrated diagonal argument. Given a square nxn tableau T=(a_i^j) on a finite alphabet A, let L be the set of its row-words. The permanent Perm(T) is the set of words…
We show that the problem of classifying, up to isomorphism, the collection of zero-entropy mixing automorphisms of a standard non-atomic probability space, is intractible. More precisely, the collection of isomorphic pairs of automorphisms…
In this article we study for which Cantor sets there exists a gauge-function h, such that the h-Hausdorff-measure is positive and finite. We show that the collection of sets for which this is true is dense in the set of all compact subsets…
For infinite cardinals $\kappa,\lambda$ let $C(\kappa,\lambda)$ denote the class of all compact Hausdorff spaces of weight $\kappa$ and size $\lambda$. So $C(\kappa,\lambda)=\emptyset$ if $\kappa>\lambda$ or $\lambda>2^\kappa$. If F is a…
Answering some of the main questions from [MR13], we show that whenever $\kappa$ is a cardinal satisfying $\kappa^{< \kappa} = \kappa > \omega$, then the embeddability relation between $\kappa$-sized structures is strongly invariantly…
This article studies the compatibility of Koenig's notion of an exact Borel subalgebra of a quasi-hereditary or, more generally, standardly stratified algebra with taking idempotent subalgebras or quotients. As an application, we provide…
Let $X$ be a Polish space and $K$ a separable compact subset of the first Baire class on $X$. For every sequence $\bs$ dense in $\kk$, the descriptive set-theoretic properties of the set \[ \lbf=\{L\in[\nn]: (f_n)_{n\in L} \text{is…
We study conditions on automorphisms of Boolean algebras of the form $P(\lambda)/I_\kappa$ (where $\lambda$ is an uncountable cardinal and $I_\kappa$ is the ideal of sets of cardinality less than $\kappa$) which allow one to conclude that a…
We consider the complexity of special $\alpha$-limit sets, a kind of backward limit set for non-invertible dynamical systems. We show that these sets are always analytic, but not necessarily Borel, even in the case of a surjective map on…
For each Cantor set C in $R^{3}$, all points of which have bounded local genus, we show that there are infinitely many inequivalent Cantor sets in $R^{3}$ with complement having the same fundamental group as the complement of C. This…
