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…

Given any $\lambda\leq\kappa$, we construct a symmetric extension in which there is a set $X$ such that $\aleph(X)=\lambda$ and $\aleph^*(X)=\kappa$. Consequently, we show that $\mathsf{ZF}+$"For all pairs of infinite cardinals…

We prove that if ZF is consistent then ZFC+GCH is consistent with the following statement: There is for every k<omega a model of cardinality aleph_1 which is L_{infty,omega_1}-equivalent to exactly k non-isomorphic models of cardinality…

A theorem of Elekes and Szab\'{o} recognizes algebraic groups among certain complex algebraic varieties with maximal size intersections with finite grids. We establish a generalization to relations of any arity and dimension, definable in:…

Let $K$ be a totally real field and $\pi$ be a regular algebraic polarized cuspidal automorphic representation of $\mathrm{GL}_n(\mathbb A_K)$. Let $\{\rho_{\pi,\lambda}:\mathrm{Gal}_K\to\mathrm{GL}_n(\overline E_\lambda)\}_\lambda$ be the…

We extend the algebraic K-stability theory to projective klt pairs with a big anticanonical class. While in general such a pair could behave pathologically, it is observed in this note that K-semistability condition will force them to have…

We show a new proof for the fact that when $\kappa$ and $\lambda$ are infinite cardinals satisfying $\lambda ^ \kappa = \lambda$, the cofinality of the set of all functions from $\lambda$ to $\kappa$ ordered by everywhere domination is…

We prove that consistently, cov($\mathcal{M})< \lambda_\mathbf{0} < \lambda_\mathbf{1} < \lambda_\mathbf{\infty} < 2^{\aleph_0}$, where $\lambda_\mathbf{0}$ denotes the weak Borel chromatic number of the Kechris-Solecki-Todor\v{c}evi\'c…

We have recently proposed a simple relativistic theory which reduces to modified Newtonian dynamics for the weak-field quasistatic situations applied to galaxies, and to cosmological behavior as in the $\Lambda$CDM model, yielding a…

We prove that if cf(lambda) > aleph_0 and 2^{cf(lambda)}<lambda, then lambda->(lambda,omega+1)^2.

Based on Crapo's theory of one point extensions of combinatorial geometries, we find various classes of geometric lattices that behave very well from the point of view of stability theory. One of them, $(\mathbf{K}^3, \preccurlyeq)$, is…

This paper is part of a program initiated by Saharon Shelah to extend the model theory of first order logic to the non-elementary setting of abstract elementary classes (AECs). An abstract elementary class is a semantic generalization of…

We give another proof that for every lambda >= beth_omega for every large enough regular kappa < beth_omega we have lambda^{[kappa]}= lambda, dealing with sufficient conditions for replacing beth_omega by aleph_omega. In section 2 we show…

This paper is a sequel to \cite{Tz10}, where a local version of ZFC, LZFC, was introduced and examined and transitive models of ZFC with properties that resemble large cardinal properties, namely Mahlo and $\Pi_1^1$-indescribable models,…

We introduce 0^h (0^handgrenade) as a sharp for an inner model with a proper class of strong cardinals. If 0^h does not exist then any normal iteration tree is "almost linear." We exploit this fact to prove the existence of the core model K…

We describe some (countably many) classes K^{n,e} of finite graphs and prove that if lambda^{aleph_0}= lambda then every lambda^+-chromatic graph of cardinal lambda^+ contains, for some n, e, all members of K^{n,e} as subgraphs. On the…

We introduce a notion of \emph{efficient stability} for finite presentations of groups. Informally, a finite presentation using generators $S$ and relations $R$ is \emph{stable} if any map from $S$ to unitaries that approximately satisfies…

We pay two debts from [Sh:576] (math.LO/9805146). The main demands little knowledge from [Sh:576], just quoting a model theoretic consequence of the weak diamond. We assume that K has amalgamation in lambda, and that the minimal types are…

Let $L/K$ be a finite Galois, totally ramified $p$-extension of complete local fields with perfect residue fields of characteristic $p>0$. In this paper, we give conditions, valid for any Galois $p$-group $G={Gal}(L/K)$ (abelian or not) and…

We study the influence of the existence of large cardinals on the existence of wellorderings of power sets of infinite cardinals $\kappa$ with the property that the collection of all initial segments of the wellordering is definable by a…
