We prove the following two results. Theorem A: Let alpha be a limit ordinal. Suppose that 2^{|alpha|}<aleph_alpha and 2^{|alpha|^+}<aleph_{|alpha|^+}, whereas aleph_alpha^{|alpha|}>aleph_{|alpha|^+}. Then for all n< omega and for all…

We prove a version of the finiteness conjecture for Kauffman bracket skein modules of $3$-manifolds with boundary, which was introduced by the second author in \cite{Det21}. In particular our methods, which are constructive, give an…

Let G be a simple, simply connected algebraic group defined over an algebraically closed field k of positive characteristic p. Let \sigma:G->G be a strict endomorphism (i. e., the subgroup G(\sigma) of \sigma-fixed points is finite). Also,…

In this article I investigate the phenomenon of minimum models of second-order set theories, focusing on Kelley--Morse set theory $\mathsf{KM}$, G\"odel--Bernays set theory $\mathsf{GB}$, and $\mathsf{GB}$ augmented with the principle of…

It is shown that Vop\v{e}nka's Principle (VP) can restore almost the entire ZF over a weak fragment of it. Namely, if EST is the theory consisting of the axioms of Extensionality, Empty Set, Pairing, Union, Cartesian Product,…

Given a generically finite local extension of valuation rings $V \subset W$, the question of whether $W$ is the localization of a finitely generated $V$-algebra is significant for approaches to the problem of local uniformization of…

We prove strengthened lower bounds for constant-depth set-multilinear formulas. More precisely, we show that over any field, there is an explicit polynomial $f$ in VNP defined over $n^2$ variables, and of degree $n$, such that any…

We extend a transitive model V of ZFC + GCH cardinal preservingly to a model N of ZF + "GCH holds below Alef_omega" + "there is a surjection from the power set of Alef_omega onto lambda" where lambda is an arbitrarily high fixed cardinal in…

Let $k$ be a differential field having an algebraically closed field of constants, $E$ be a strongly normal extension of $k$, and $k^0$ be the algebraic closure of $k$ in $E.$ We prove for any intermediate differential field $k\subset…

The Bounded Height Conjecture of Bombieri, Masser, and Zannier states that for any sufficiently generic algebraic subvariety of a semiabelian $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$-variety $G$ there is an upper bound on the Weil height of the points…

According to the math tea argument, there must be real numbers that we cannot describe or define, because there are uncountably many real numbers, but only countably many definitions. And yet, the existence of pointwise-definable models of…

We develop a toolbox for forcing over arbitrary models of set theory without the axiom of choice. In particular, we introduce a variant of the countable chain condition and prove an iteration theorem that applies to many classical forcings…

A $\Sigma$-construction of Solovay is partially extended to the case of intermediate sets which are not necessarily subsets of the ground model. As an application, we prove that, for a given name $t$, the set of all sets $t[G]$, $G$ being…

It is well known that ordered exponential fields with a compatible non-trivial valuation cannot be spherically complete, but there are some that are ``complete enough''. This paper gives analogues of Kaplansky's theorem on maximally valued…

Let $n$ be the maximal nilpotent subalgebra of a simple complex Lie algebra $g$. We introduce the notion of imaginary vector in the dual canonical basis of $U_q(n)$, and we give examples of such vectors for types $A_n (n\ge 5)$, $B_n (n\ge…

In this paper, we complete the classification of the {\bf Z}-graded modules of the intermediate series over the $q$-analog Virasoro-like algebra $L$. We first construct four classes of irreducible {\bf Z}-graded $L$-modules of the…

Let $A$ be a finite-dimensional algebra over an algebraically closed field. The problem of constructing indecomposable $A$-modules inductively from simple ones by means of exact sequences - called accessibility - is the starting point of…

We develop a new method for establishing the extremality in the closed cone of effective curves on the moduli space of curves and determine the extremality of many boundary $1$-strata. As a consequence, by using a general criterion for…

We settle a conjecture by Bik and Marigliano stating that the degree of a one-dimensional discrete model with rational maximum likelihood estimator is bounded above by a linear function in the size of its support, therefore showing that…

We investigate the provability of classical combinatorial theorems in ZF. Using combinatorial arguments, we establish the following results for each infinite cardinal ${\kappa}\in On$, (1) ${\kappa}^+\to ({\kappa},{\omega}+1)$, (2) any…
