We note that there is an exception to the general arguments that no falsifiable predictions can be made, on the basis of of presently available data, by applying the weak anthropic principle (WAP) to the landscape of string theory. If there…
In this paper we explain how the notion of ''weak Dirichlet process'' is the suitable generalization of the one of semimartingale with jumps. For such a process we provide a unique decomposition which is new also for semimartingales: in…
We prove a revised version of Laver's indestructibility theorem which slightly improves over the classical result. An application yields the consistency of $(\kappa^+,\kappa)\notcc(\aleph\_1,\aleph\_0)$ when $\kappa$ is supercompact. The…
The concept of jointness for guessing principles, specifically $\diamondsuit_\kappa$ and various Laver diamonds, is introduced. A family of guessing sequences is joint if the elements of any given sequence of targets may be simultaneously…
We force the existence of a non-trivial $\kappa$-complete ultrafilter over $\kappa$ which fails to satisfy the Galvin property. This answers a question asked by the first author and Moti Gitik.
In this non-technical introduction to diamond trees and forests, we focus on their application to computation in stochastic volatility models written in forward variance form, rough volatility models in particular.
We introduce and study a family of axioms that closely follows the pattern of parametrized diamonds, studied by Moore, Hru\v{s}\'ak, and D\v{z}amonja in [13]. However, our approach appeals to model theoretic / forcing theoretic notions,…
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…
We define a notion of a weak canonical base for a partial type. This notion is weaker than the usual canonical base for an amalgamation base. We prove that certain family of partial types have a weak canonical base. This family clearly…
If kappa is any strongly unfoldable cardinal, then this is preserved in a forcing extension in which Diamond_kappa(REG) fails. This result continues the progression of the corresponding results for weakly compact cardinals, due to Woodin,…
We show that the phenomenon of anomalous weak values is not limited to quantum theory. In particular, we show that the same features occur in a simple model of a coin subject to a form of classical backaction with pre- and post-selection.…
We show it is consistent that there is a Souslin tree $S$ such that after forcing with $S$, $S$ is Kurepa and for all clubs $C \subset \omega_1$, $S\upharpoonright C$ is rigid. This answers Fuchs's questions in Club degrees of rigidity and…
We show that $\mathsf{PFA}$ (Proper Forcing Axiom) implies that adding any number of Cohen subsets of $\omega$ will not add an $\omega_2$-Aronszajn tree or a weak $\omega_1$-Kurepa tree, and moreover no $\sigma$-centered forcing can add a…
We analyze the trade-off between model complexity and accuracy for random forests by breaking the trees up into individual classification rules and selecting a subset of them. We show experimentally that already a few rules are sufficient…
The aim of this note is to give an effective criterion to verify whether a cubic polynomial over a non-Archimedean field has a weak N\'{e}ron model or not.
We introduce an iteration of forcing notions satisfying the countable chain condition with minimal damage to a strong coloring. Applying this method, we prove that Martin's axiom is strictly stronger than its restriction to forcing notions…
This paper gives a generic form of the diamond lemma, which includes support for additive and topological structures of the base set, and which does not require any further structure (e.g. an associative multiplication operation) to be…
We give examples of data-generating models under which Breiman's random forest may be extremely slow to converge to the optimal predictor or even fail to be consistent. The evidence provided for these properties is based on mostly intuitive…
We strengthen the revised GCH theorem by showing, e.g., that for lambda=cf(lambda)>beth_omega, for all but finitely many regular kappa<beth_omega, lambda is accessible on cofinality kappa in a weak version of it holds. In particular,…
In the context of large cardinals, the classical diamond principle Diamond_kappa is easily strengthened in natural ways. When kappa is a measurable cardinal, for example, one might ask that a Diamond_kappa sequence anticipate every subset…
