Assume $\kappa = \kappa^{< \kappa}$ (usually $\aleph_0$ or an inaccessible). We shall deal with iterated forcings preserving ${}^{\kappa>}{\rm Ord}$ and not collapsing cardinals along a linear order $L$. A sufficient condition for this,…
In this paper, we answer a question asked in "A minimal Prikry type forcing for singularizing a measurable cardinal" regarding a Mathias criteria for Tree-Prikry forcing. Also we will investigate Prikry forcing using various filters. For…
The purpose of this paper is to present a general method for forcing on $\omega_2$ and $\omega_3$ with finite conditions, while preserving all cardinals and some fragments of $\mathrm{GCH}$. This method is based on the technique of forcing…
The class forcing theorem, which asserts that every class forcing notion $\mathbb{P}$ admits a forcing relation $\Vdash_{\mathbb{P}}$, that is, a relation satisfying the forcing relation recursion -- it follows that statements true in the…
We prove that Solovay's set $\Sigma$ is generic over the ground model via a forcing notion whose order relation $\subseteq$-extends the given order relation.
We generalise the main theorems from the paper "The Borel cardinality of Lascar strong types" by I. Kaplan, B. Miller and P. Simon to a wider class of bounded invariant equivalence relations. We apply them to describe relationships between…
Query equivalence is investigated for disjunctive aggregate queries with negated subgoals, constants and comparisons. A full characterization of equivalence is given for the aggregation functions count, max, sum, prod, toptwo and parity. A…
Homogenization is a powerful way of taming a class of finite structures with several interesting applications in different areas, from Ramsey theory in combinatorics to constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs) in computer science, through…
We analyze the intermediate models of the strongly compact Prikry forcing. We exhibit a simple combinatorial property which, for a given supercompact cardinal $\kappa$, characterize the projections of all projections of the strongly compact…
The forcing method is a powerful tool to prove the consistency of set-theoretic assertions relative to the consistency of the axioms of set theory. Laver's theorem and Bukovsk\'y's theorem assert that set-generic extensions of a given…
We continue the research of the relation $\hspace{1mm}\widetilde{\mid}\hspace{1mm}$ on the set $\beta {\mathbb{N}}$ of ultrafilters on ${\mathbb{N}}$, defined as an extension of the divisibility relation. It is a quasiorder, so we see it as…
Given a countable model of set theory, we study the structure of its generic multiverse, the collection of its forcing extensions and ground models, ordered by inclusion. Mostowski showed that any finite poset embeds into the generic…
A framework is a graph and a map from its vertices to E^d (for some d). A framework is universally rigid if any framework in any dimension with the same graph and edge lengths is a Euclidean image of it. We show that a generic universally…
In this paper we investigate fair computations in the pi-calculus. Following Costa and Stirling's approach for CCS-like languages, we consider a method to label process actions in order to filter out unfair computations. We contrast the…
We introduce a characterization for affine equivalence of two surfaces of translation defined by either rational or meromorphic generators. In turn, this induces a similar characterization for minimal surfaces. In the rational case, our…
By the fundamental work of Griffiths one knows that, under suitable assumption, homological and algebraic equivalence do not coincide for a general hypersurface section of a smooth projective variety $Y$. In the present paper we prove the…
We study the essential dimension of representations of a fixed quiver with given dimension vector. We also consider the question of when the genericity property holds, i.e., when essential dimension and generic essential dimension agree. We…
Using a categorial version of Fra\"iss\'e's theorem due to Droste and G\"obel, we derive a criterion for a comma-category to have universal homogeneous objects. As a first application we give new existence result for universal structures…
Graphons are analytic objects associated with convergent sequences of graphs. Problems from extremal combinatorics and theoretical computer science led to a study of graphons determined by finitely many subgraph densities, which are…
We compute the essential dimension of the functors Forms_{n,d} and Hypersurf_{n, d} of equivalence classes of homogeneous polynomials in n variables and hypersurfaces in P^{n-1}, respectively, over any base field k of characteristic 0. Here…
