We study connections between definability in generalized descriptive set theory and large cardinals, under ZFC. We show that if $\kappa$ is a limit of measurables then there is no wellorder of a subset of $P(\kappa)$ of length…
We prove that the property Add$(M)\subseteq$ Prod$(M)$ characterizes $\Sigma$-algebraically compact modules if $|M|$ is not $\omega$-measurable. Moreover, under a large cardinal assumption, we show that over any ring $R$ where $|R|$ is not…
We prove a theorem on iterated forcing that can be used for preservation of $\aleph_2$ and $\aleph_1$ in iterations with supports of size $\aleph_1$ of forcings that have amalgamation properties similar to those present in the perfect set…
We generalize the basic theory of universally Baire sets of $2^\omega$ to a theory of universally Baire subsets of $2^\kappa$. We show that the fundamental characterizations of the property of being universally Baire have natural…
Given a strong limit cardinal $\lambda$ of countable cofinality, we show that if every $\lambda$-coanalytic subset of the generalised Cantor space ${}^{\lambda}2$ has the $\lambda$-$\mathsf{PSP}$, then there is an inner model with…
We prove that it is consistent (relative to a Mahlo cardinal) that all projective sets of reals are Lebesgue measurable, but there is a $\Delta^1_3$ set without the Baire property. The complexity of the set which provides a counterexample…
Working under large cardinal assumptions, we study the Borel-reducibility between equivalence relations modulo restrictions of the non-stationary ideal on some fixed cardinal $\kappa$. We show the consistency of…
We show that many large cardinal notions can be characterized in terms of the existence of certain elementary embeddings between transitive set-sized structures, that map their critical point to the large cardinal in question. In…
Given a bounded domain $\Omega \subset {\Bbb R}^d$ with positive measure and a finite set $A=\{a^1, a^2, \dots, a^d\}$, we say that the set ${\mathcal E}(A)={\{e^{2 \pi i x \cdot a^j}\}}_{a^j \in A}$ is a complete exponential system if for…
Let S1(Gamma,Gamma) be the statement: For each sequence of point-cofinite open covers, one can pick one element from each cover and obtain a point-cofinite cover. b is the minimal cardinality of a set of reals not satisfying…
We analyze the notion of guessing model, a way to assign combinatorial properties to arbitrary regular cardinals. Guessing models can be used, in combination with inaccessibility, to characterize various large cardinals axioms, ranging from…
This paper investigates the problem of extending measure theory to non-separable structures, from generalized descriptive set theory to a broader class of spaces beyond this framework. While various notions, such as the ideal of measure…
Starting with two supercompact cardinals we produce a generic extension of the universe in which a principle that we call ${\rm GM}^+(\omega_3,\omega_1)$ holds. This principle implies ${\rm ISP}(\omega_2)$ and ${\rm ISP}(\omega_3)$, and…
In this paper we study the semigroup $\mathscr{I}^{\infty}_\lambda$ of injective partial selfmaps almost everywhere the identity of a set of infinite cardinality $\lambda$. We describe the Green relations on $\mathscr{I}^{\infty}_\lambda$,…
We define a weak iterability notion that is sufficient for a number of arguments concerning $\Sigma_1$-definability at uncountable regular cardinals. In particular we give its exact consistency strength firstly in terms of the second…
We prove theorems of the following form: if $A\subseteq {\mathbb R}^2$ is a big set, then there exists a big set $P\subseteq {\mathbb R}$ and a perfect set $Q\subseteq {\mathbb R}$ such that $P\times Q\subseteq A$. We discuss cases where…
We prove that the theory of the models constructible using finitely many cofinality quantifiers - $C_{\lambda_{1},...,\lambda_{n}}^{*}$ and $C_{<\lambda_{1},...,<\lambda_{n}}^{*}$ for $\lambda_{1},...,\lambda_{n}$ regular cardinals - is…
For $K$ an abstract elementary class with amalgamation and no maximal models, we show that categoricity in a high-enough cardinal implies structural properties such as the uniqueness of limit models and the existence of good frames. This…
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…
Let $\kappa$ be a regular cardinal. Consider the Baire numbers of the spaces $(2^{\theta})_\kappa$ (functions from $\theta$ to 2 and the less than $\kappa$ topology) for various $\theta \geq \kappa$. Let l be the number of such different…
