Good frames were suggested in [Sh:h] as the (bare-bones) parallel, in the context of AECs, to superstable (among elementary classes). Here we consider $(\mu,\lambda,\kappa)$-frames as candidates for being (in the context of AECs) the…

In this paper we will show that for every cut $ I $ of any countable nonstandard model $ \mathcal{M} $ of $ \mathrm{I}\Sigma_{1} $, each $ I $-small $ \Sigma_{1} $-elementary submodel of $ \mathcal{M}$ is of the form of the set of fixed…

We show that Weak Vop\v{e}nka's Principle, which is the statement that the opposite category of ordinals cannot be fully embedded into the category of graphs, is equivalent to the large cardinal principle Ord is Woodin, which says that for…

In many axiomatic set theories, G\"odel's constructible universe $L$ is known as an inner model, that is, a definable class satisfying the same axioms (and containing the same ordinals). This gives a trivial proof that adding the axiom $V =…

We show that every formal embedding sending a real-analytic strongly pseudoconvex hypersurface in $M\subset \C^N$ into another such hypersurface in $M'\subset \C^{N+1}$ is convergent. More generally, if $M$ and $M'$ are merely…

We point out a gap in Shelah's proof of the following result: $\mathbf{Claim}$ Let $K$ be an abstract elementary class categorical in unboundedly many cardinals. Then there exists a cardinal $\lambda$ such that whenever $M, N \in K$ have…

We mainly investigate model of set theory with restricted choice, e.g., ZF + DC + "the family of countable subsets of lambda is well ordered for every lambda" (really local version for a given lambda). In this frame much of pcf theory can…

This paper develops a rich theory of cardinality in the paraconsistent and paracomplete set theory $\mathrm{BZFC}$, where sets can be inconsistent ($A$ such that ``$x\in A$'' is both true and false for some $x$) or incomplete ($A$ such that…

We investigate the possibilities of global versions of Chang's Conjecture that involve singular cardinals. We show some $\mathrm{ZFC}$ limitations on such principles, and prove relative to large cardinals that Chang's Conjecture can…

The main result of this paper is that for every closed, connected, orientable, irreducible 3-manifold $M$, there is an integer $ n_M$ such that any abstract graph with no automorphism of order 2 which has a 3-connected minor whose genus is…

We extend and improve the result of Makkai and Par\'e that the powerful image of any accessible functor F is accessible, assuming there exists a sufficiently large strongly compact cardinal. We reduce the required large cardinal assumption…

Let $\Gamma$ be an embeddable non-degenerate polar space of finite rank $n \geq 2$. Assuming that $\Gamma$ admits the universal embedding (which is true for all embeddable polar spaces except grids of order at least $5$ and certain…

We consider a complete nonnegative biminimal submanifold M (that is, a complete biminimal submanifold with lambda>=0) in a Euclidean space E^N. Assume that the immersion is proper, that is, the preimage of every compact set in E^N is also…

Let K be an arbitrary (commutative) field, and V be a linear subspace of M_n(K) such that codim V<n-1. Using a recent generalization of a theorem of Atkinson and Lloyd, we show that every linear embedding of V into M_n(K) which strongly…

We investigate in ZFC what can be the family of large enough cardinals mu in which an a.e.c. K is categorical or even just solvable. We show that for not few cardinals lambda<mu there is a superlimit model in K_lambda. Moreover, our main…

We prove two general results about the preservation of extendible and $C^{(n)}$-extendible cardinals under a wide class of forcing iterations (Theorems 5.4 and 7.5). As applications we give new proofs of the preservation of Vop\v{e}nka's…

We show that that a certain class of semi-proper iterations does not add omega-sequences. As a result, starting from suitable large cardinals one can obtain a model in which the Continuum Hypothesis holds and every function from omega_1 to…

Denote by PSelf(X) (resp., Self(X)) the partial (resp., full) transformation monoid over a set X, and by Sub(V) (resp., End(V)) the collection of all subspaces (resp., endomorphisms) of a vector space V. We prove various results that imply…

Let $(X,\left\Vert \cdot \right\Vert )$ be a real normed space of dimension $N\in \mathbb{N}$ with a basis $(e_{i})_{1}^{N}$ such that the norm is invariant under coordinate permutations. Assume for simplicity that the basis constant is at…

We show that various tameness assertions about abstract elementary classes imply the existence of large cardinals under mild cardinal arithmetic assumptions.
