Suppose $a_n$ is a real, nonnegative sequence that does not increase exponentially. For any $p<1$ we contruct a Lebesgue measurable set $E \subseteq \mathbb{R}$ which has measure at least $p$ in any unit interval and which contains no…

For any small quantaloid $\Q$, there is a new quantaloid $\D(\Q)$ of diagonals in $\Q$. If $\Q$ is divisible then so is $\D(\Q)$ (and vice versa), and then it is particularly interesting to compare categories enriched in $\Q$ with…

In one-dimensional Diophantine approximation, the Diophantine properties of a real number are characterized by its partial quotients, especially the growth of its large partial quotients. Notably, Kleinbock and Wadleigh [Proc. Amer. Math.…

Let $T$ be a theory with a definable topology. $T$ is t-minimal in the sense of Mathews if every definable set in one variable has finite boundary. If $T$ is t-minimal, we show that there is a good dimension theory for definable sets,…

We prove the existence of Rado sets in the Banach space of continuous functions on [0,1]. A countable dense set S is Rado if with probability 1, the infinite geometric random graph on S, formed by probabilistically making adjacent elements…

In computable analysis typically topological spaces with countable bases are considered. The Theorem of Kreitz-Weihrauch implies that the subbase representation of a second-countable $T_0$ space is admissible with respect to the topology…

The Levi-Civita field $\mathcal{R}$ is the smallest non-Archimedean ordered field extension of the real numbers that is real closed and Cauchy complete in the topology induced by the order. In this paper we develop a new theory of…

Let $p/q$ ($p, q \in \mathbb{N}^*$) be a positive rational number such that $p > q^2$. We show that for any $\epsilon > 0$, there exists a set $A(\epsilon) \subset [0, 1[$, with finite border and with Lebesgue measure $< \epsilon$, for…

We study the smallest possible number of points in a topological space having k open sets. Equivalently, this is the smallest possible number of elements in a poset having k order ideals. Using efficient algorithms for constructing a…

For every natural number k we prove a decomposition theorem for bounded measurable functions on compact abelian groups into a structured part, a quasi random part and a small error term. In this theorem quasi randomness is measured with the…

In this survey, my aim has been to discuss the use of sequences and countable sets in general topology. In this way I have been led to consider five different classes of topological spaces: first countable spaces, sequential spaces, Frechet…

Cantor's diagonal method is traditionally used to prove the uncountability of the set of all infinite binary sequences. This paper analyzes the expressive limits of this method. It is shown that under any constructive application --…

This paper investigates the absolute values on $\mathbb{Z}$ valued in the upper reals (i.e. reals for which only a right Dedekind section is given). These necessarily include multiplicative seminorms corresponding to the finite prime fields…

According to mathematical constructivism, a mathematical object can exist only if there is a way to compute (or "construct") it; so, what is non-computable is non-constructive. In the example of the quantum model, whose Fock states are…

We extend in a natural way the operation of Turing machines to infinite ordinal time, and investigate the resulting supertask theory of computability and decidability on the reals. The resulting computability theory leads to a notion of…

We develop a synthesis of Turing's paradigm of computation and von Neumann's quantum logic to serve as a model for quantum computation with recursion, such that potentially non-terminating computation can take place, as in a quantum Turing…

Without assuming the field structure on the additive group of real numbers $\mathbb{R}$ with the usual order $<,$ we explore the fact that every proper subgroup of $\mathbb{R}$ is either closed or dense. This property of subgroups of the…

We reformulate slightly Russell's notion of typicality, so as to eliminate its circularity and make it applicable to elements of any first-order structure. We argue that the notion parallels Martin-L\"{o}f (ML) randomness, in the sense that…

In this article, we introduce a notion of reducibility for partial functions on the natural numbers, which we call subTuring reducibility. One important aspect is that the subTuring degrees correspond to the structure of the realizability…

We prove in ZFC the existence of a definable, countably saturated elementary extension of the reals. It seems that it has been taken for granted that there is no distinguished, definable nonstandard model of the reals. (This means a…
