In this short note we reply to a comment by Callegaro et al. [1] (arXiv:2009.11709) that points out some weakness of the model of indeterministic physics that we proposed in Ref. [2] (Physical Review A, 100(6), p.062107), based on what we…

Logical frameworks are successful in modeling proof systems. Recently, CoLF extended the logical framework LF to support higher-order rational terms that enable adequate encoding of circular objects and derivations. In this paper, we…

We study the principle phi implies box phi, known as `Strength' or `the Completeness Principle', over the constructive version of L\"ob's Logic. We consider this principle both for the modal language with the necessity operator and for the…

In recent years the question of whether adding the limited principle of omniscience, LPO, to constructive Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory, CZF, increases its strength has arisen several times. As the addition of excluded middle for atomic…

We discuss the Singer conjecture and Gromov-L\"uck inequality $\chi \geq |\sigma|$ for aspherical complex surfaces. We give a proof of the Singer conjecture for aspherical complex surface with residually finite fundamental group that does…

Cobham's theorem asserts that if a sequence is automatic with respect to two multiplicatively independent bases, then it is ultimately periodic. We prove a stronger density version of the result: if two sequences which are automatic with…

We investigate the lower bound of the consistency strength of $\mathsf{CZF}$ with Full Separation $\mathsf{Sep}$ and a Reinhardt set, a constructive analogue of Reinhardt cardinals. We show that $\mathsf{CZF+Sep}$ with a Reinhardt set…

We introduce and study the noncommutative weak Extension Principle, a lifting principle aiming to characterise $^*$-homomorphisms between coronas of nonunital separable $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebras. While this principle fails if the Continuum…

We investigate the properties of a Finite Electroweak (FEW) Theory first proposed in 1991. The theory predicts a running of the electroweak coupling constants and a suppression of tree level amplitudes, ensuring unitarity without a Higgs…

We study the first-order consequences of Ramsey's Theorem for $k$-colourings of $n$-tuples, for fixed $n, k \ge 2$, over the relatively weak second-order arithmetic theory $\mathrm{RCA}^*_0$. Using the Chong-Mourad coding lemma, we show…

In this paper, we propose a generalization of Continuous Logic ([BBHU08]) where the distances take values in suitable co-quantales (in the way as it was proposed in [Fla97]). By assuming suitable conditions (e.g., being co-divisible,…

This paper is a contribution to the growing investigation of strong reducibilities between $\Pi^1_2$ statements of second-order arithmetic, viewed as an extension of the traditional analysis of reverse mathematics. We answer several…

Let G be a finite group scheme over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic. Assume further that the connected component of G is unipotent. It is shown that the projectivity of a rational G-module can be detected on a…

We give degree lower bounds for quotient line bundles of the lowest piece of a Hodge module induced by a complex variation of Hodge structures outside a simple normal crossing divisor, beyond the unipotent variation case. This note aims to…

We consider strong combinatorial principles for sigma-directed families of countable sets in the ordering by inclusion modulo finite, e.g. P-ideals of countable sets. We try for principles as strong as possible while remaining compatible…

We present several new theorems concerning the first fundamental group of a path connected metric space. Among the results proven are strengthenings of the main theorems of \cite{Sh2} and \cite{CoCo}. A compactness theorem for the…

We show that the theory ZFC-, consisting of the usual axioms of ZFC but with the power set axiom removed-specifically axiomatized by extensionality, foundation, pairing, union, infinity, separation, replacement and the assertion that every…

A theory T is tight if different deductively closed extensions of T (in the same language) cannot be bi-interpretable. Many well-studied foundational theories are tight, including PA [Visser2006], ZF, Z2, and KM [enayat2017]. In this…

We show that there is a restriction, or modification of the finite-variable fragments of First Order Logic in which a weak form of Craig's Interpolation Theorem holds, but a strong form of this theorem does not hold. Translating these…

This article is studying the roots of the reliability polynomials of linear consecutive-\textit{k}-out-of-\textit{n}:\textit{F} systems. We are able to prove that these roots are unbounded in the complex plane, for any fixed $k\ge2$. In the…
