Consider an a.e.c. (abstract elementary class), that is, a class K of models with a partial order refining inclusion (submodel) which satisfy the most basic properties of an elementary class. Our test question is trying to show that the…
Let $\mathcal M_X$ denote the ideal of meager subsets of a topological space $X$. We prove that if $X$ is a completely metrizable space without isolated points, then the smallest cardinality of a non-meager subset of $X$, denoted…
Given a finite permutation group $G$ with domain $\Omega$, we associate two subsets of natural numbers to $G$, namely $\mathcal{I}(G,\Omega)$ and $\mathcal{M}(G,\Omega)$, which are the sets of cardinalities of all the irredundant and…
We prove that if there is a dominating family of size ${\aleph}_{1}$, then there is are ${\aleph}_{1}$ many compact subsets of ${\omega}^{\omega}$ whose union is a maximal almost disjoint family of functions that is also maximal with…
Let $S=K[x_1, \ldots,x_n]$ denote the polynomial ring in $n$ variables over a field $K$ and let $I \subset S$ be a monomial ideal. For a vector $\mathfrak{c}\in\mathbb{N}^n$, we set $I_{\mathfrak{c}}$ to be the ideal generated by monomials…
We examine topological spaces not distinguishing ideal pointwise and ideal $\sigma$-uniform convergence of sequences of real-valued continuous functions defined on them. For instance, we introduce a purely combinatorial cardinal…
Let $\mathcal{E}$ be the ideal generated by the $F_\sigma$ measure zero subsets of the reals. The purpose of this survey paper is to study the cardinal characteristics (the additivity, covering number, uniformity, and cofinality) of…
Let ${\bf x}=(x_n)_n$ be a sequence in a Banach space. A set $A\subseteq \mathbb{N}$ is perfectly bounded, if there is $M$ such that $\|\sum_{n\in F}x_n\|\leq M$ for every finite $F\subseteq A$. The collection $B({\bf x})$ of all perfectly…
Answering questions raised in \cite{Leonetti, Uzcategui} we characterize ideals $\mathcal I\subseteq \mathcal P(\omega)$ such that $c_{0,\mathcal I}$ is complemented in $\ell_\infty$ as exactly those ideals for which the space $K_{\mathcal…
The main result of this paper is an improvement of the upper bound on the cardinal invariant ${\mathord{\mathrm{cov}}}^{\ast}({\mathcal{Z}}_{0})$ that was discovered by Raghavan and Shelah in an earlier paper. Here ${\mathcal{Z}}_{0}$ is…
There exists a family $\{B_{\alpha}\}_{\alpha<\omega_1}$ of sets of countable ordinals such that o $\max B_{\alpha}=\alpha$, o if $\alpha\in B_{\beta}$ then $B_{\alpha}\subseteq B_{\beta}$, o if $\lambda\leq \alpha$ and $\lambda$ is a limit…
For $\lambda \in (1/2, 1)$ and $\alpha$, we consider sets of numbers $x$ such that for infinitely many $n$, $x$ is $2^{-\alpha n}$-close to some $\sum_{i=1}^n \omega_i \lambda^i$, where $\omega_i \in \{0,1\}$. These sets are in Falconer's…
We prove the consistency of: for suitable strongly inaccessible cardinal lambda the dominating number, i.e., the cofinality of ^{lambda}lambda, is strictly bigger than cov_lambda(meagre), i.e. the minimal number of nowhere dense subsets of…
We consider a Leibniz algebra ${\mathfrak L} = {\mathfrak I} \oplus {\mathfrak V}$ over an arbitrary base field $\mathbb{F}$, being ${\mathfrak I}$ the ideal generated by the products $[x,x], x \in {\mathfrak L}$. This ideal has a…
We improve the previous work of Yorioka and the first author about the combinatorics of the ideal $\mathcal{SN}$ of strong measure zero sets of reals. We refine the notions of dominating systems of the first author and introduce the new…
Let $\R^\R$ denote the set of real valued functions defined on the real line. A map $D: \R^\R \to \R^\R$ is a {\it difference operator}, if there are real numbers $a_i, b_i \ (i=1,..., n)$ such that $(Df)(x)=\sum_{i=1}^n a_i f(x+b_i)$ for…
An ideal $I$ is a family of subsets of positive integers $\textbf{N}$ which is closed under taking finite unions and subsets of its elements. A sequence $(x_n)$ of real numbers is said to be $I$-convergent to a real number $L$, if for each…
We study the approachability ideal I[\kappa^+] in the context of large cardinals properties of the regular cardinals below a singular \kappa. As a guiding example consider the approachability ideal I[\aleph_{\omega+1}] assuming that…
For a compact Riemannian $n$-manifold $(M,g)$ of positive scalar curvature, the capital $\Ein$ invariant of $g$ is defined to be the infinimum over $M$ of the quotient of the scalar curvature by the maximal eigenvalue of the Ricci…
We study $\Sigma_1(\omega_1)$-definable sets (i.e. sets that are equal to the collection of all sets satisfying a certain $\Sigma_1$-formula with parameter $\omega_1$) in the presence of large cardinals. Our results show that the existence…
