A basic technique in model theory is to name the elements of a model by introducing new constant symbols. We describe the analogous construction in the language of syntactic categories/ sites. As an application we identify…
We develop the basic model theory of local positive logic, a new logic that mixes positive logic (where negation is not allowed) and local logic (where models omit types of infinite distant pairs). We study several basic model theoretic…
The notion of an existentially closed model is generalised to a property of geometric morphisms between toposes. We show that important properties of existentially closed models extend to existentially closed geometric morphisms, such as…
We study the basic properties of a dual "spectral" topology on positive type spaces of h-inductive theories and its essential connection to infinitary logic. The topology is Hausdorff, has the Baire property, and its compactness…
This paper continues the investigation of quasilength, of content of local cohomology with respect to generators of the support ideal, and of robust algebras begun in joint work of Hochster and Huneke. We settle several questions raised by…
We prove an effective version of the Lopez-Escobar theorem for continuous domains. Let $Mod(\tau)$ be the set of countable structures with universe $\omega$ in vocabulary $\tau$ topologized by the Scott topology. We show that an invariant…
We study several sufficient conditions for the molecularity/local-connectedness of geometric morphisms. In particuar, we show that if $\mathcal{S}$ is a Boolean topos then, for every hyperconnected essential geometric morphism ${p :…
We study structures which have arisen in recent work by the present author and Bob Coecke on a categorical axiomatics for Quantum Mechanics; in particular, the notion of strongly compact closed category. We explain how these structures…
In this paper we extend of the notion of algebraically closed given in the case of groups and skew fields to an arbitrary h-inductive theory. The main subject of this paper is the study of the notion of positive algebraic closedness and its…
We introduce the notions of almost positively closed models and positive strong amalgamation property. We study the fundamental properties of these notions and develop some interactions between them.
Every category $\mathcal K$ has a free completion $\mathcal P \mathcal K$ under colimits and a free completion $\Sigma\mathcal K$ under coproducts. A number of properties of $\mathcal K$ transfer to $\mathcal P \mathcal K$ and…
Let $T$ be a positive closed current of bidimension $(p,p)$ with unit mass on the complex projective space $\mathbb P^n$. For certain values of $\alpha$ and $\beta = \beta(p, \alpha)$ we show that if $T$ has enough points where the Lelong…
In the paper, we investigate the following fundamental question. For a set $\mathcal{K}$ in $\mathbb{L}^0(\mathbb{P})$, when does there exist an equivalent probability measure $\mathbb{Q}$ such that $\mathcal{K}$ is uniformly integrable in…
We study two classes of morphisms in infinite type: tamely presented morphisms and morphisms with coherent pullback. These are generalizations of finitely presented morphisms and morphisms of finite Tor-dimension, respectively. The class of…
In this paper we continue the exploration of the classes of positively closed and h-maximal model of an h-inductive theory in the context of positive logic. In the section 2 we give a concrete description of the class of h-maximal models of…
For a category $\mathcal E$ with finite limits and well-behaved countable coproducts, we construct a model structure, called the effective model structure, on the category of simplicial objects in $\mathcal E$, generalising the Kan--Quillen…
We prove two versions of Bochner's theorem for locally compact quantum groups. First, every completely positive definite "function" on a locally compact quantum group $\G$ arises as a transform of a positive functional on the universal…
A discrete subset $S$ of a topologically gyrogroup $G$ is called a {\it suitable set} for $G$ if $S\cup \{1\}$ is closed and the subgyrogroup generated by $S$ is dense in $G$, where $1$ is the identity element of $G$. In this paper, we…
Let $K$ be a complete discretely valued field with the residue field $\kappa$. Assume that cohomological dimension of $\kappa$ is less than or equal to $1$ (for example, $\kappa$ is an algebraically closed field or a finite field). Let $F$…
For any (n+1)-dimensional weight vector {\chi} of positive integers, the weighted projective space P(\chi) is a projective toric variety, and has orbifold singularities in every case other than CP^n. We study the algebraic topology of…
