Much recent work in cardinal characteristics has focused on generalizing results about $\omega$ to uncountable cardinals by studying analogues of classical cardinal characteristics on the generalized Baire and Cantor spaces $\kappa^\kappa$…
Let $\mathcal{I}$ be an ideal on $\omega$. For $f,g\in\omega^\omega$ we write $f \leq_{\mathcal{I}} g$ if $f(n) \leq g(n)$ for all $n\in\omega\setminus A$ with some $A\in\mathcal{I}$. Moreover, we denote…
How many permutations of the natural numbers are needed so that every conditionally convergent series of real numbers can be rearranged to no longer converge to the same sum? We define the \emph{rearrangement number}, a new cardinal…
Necessary and sufficient conditions are given on matrices $A$, $B$ and $S$, having entries in some field $\mathbb F$ and suitable dimensions, such that the linear span of the terms $A^iSB^j$ over $\mathbb F$ is equal to the whole matrix…
A function f from reals to reals (f:R->R) is almost continuous (in the sense of Stallings) iff every open set in the plane which contains the graph of f contains the graph of a continuous function. Natkaniec showed that for any family F of…
Using Koszmider's strongly unbounded functions, we show the following consistency result: Suppose that $\kappa,\lambda$ are infinite cardinals such that $\kappa^{+++} \leq \lambda$, $\kappa^{<\kappa}=\kappa$ and $2^{\kappa}= \kappa^+$, and…
We give asymptotic sharp estimates for the cardinality of a set of residue classes with the property that the representation function is bounded by a prescribed number. We then use this to obtain an analogous result for sets of integers,…
The aim of the paper is to give a full characterization of functions f from I into the real line R (where I is an interval in R that satisfies certain natural conditions) such that for any I-valued positive definite kernel K defined on an…
An important classical result in ZFC asserts that every infinite cardinal number is idempotent. Using this fact, we obtain several algebraic results in this article. The first result asserts that an infinite Abelian group has a proper…
Two meromorphic functions $f$ and $g$ are said to share the set $S\subset \mathbb{C}\cup\{\infty\}$ with weight $l\in\mathbb{N}\cup\{0\}\cup\{\infty\}$, if $E_{f}(S,l)=E_{g}(S,l)$ where $$E_{f}(S,l)=\bigcup\limits_{a \in S}\{(z,t) \in…
Four constructions result from a desire to create enhancements to Cantor's infinite real set cardinality. Each continues to keep Cantor's cardinality formulation in place while providing new comparisons of arbitrary infinite sets. To…
In this paper, we introduce the concept of the $\alpha$-fractal function and fractal approximation for a set-valued continuous map defined on a closed and bounded interval of real numbers. Also, we study some properties of such fractal…
Let $X$ be a compact metric space and let $|A|$ denote the cardinality of a set $A$. We prove that if $f\colon X\to X$ is a homeomorphism and $|X|=\infty$ then for all $\delta>0$ there is $A\subset X$ such that $|A|=4$ and for all $k\in Z$…
We provide upper bounds for the cardinality of the value set of a polynomial map in several variables over a finite field. These bounds generalize earlier bounds for univariate polynomials.
We say that a function $\alpha(x)$ belongs to the set ${\bf A}^{(\gamma)}$ if it has an asymptotic expansion of the form $\alpha(x)\sim \sum^\infty_{i=0}\alpha_ix^{\gamma-i}$ as $x\to\infty$, which can be differentiated term by term…
A ccc-generically supercompact cardinal $\kappa$ can be smaller than or equal to the continuum. On the other hand, such a cardinal $\kappa$ still satisfies diverse largeness properties, like that it is a stationary limit of ccc-generically…
Higher order set theory has been a topic of interest for some time, with recent efforts focused on the strength of second order set theories [KW16]. In this paper we strive to present one 'theory of collections' that allows for a formal…
The variant of calculation of functions of set and their application is offered. In particular: the new measure of system of sets generalizing classical concept of a measure is entered; the variation of set that has allowed to construct a…
Let G be a graph with a perfect matching. A complete forcing set of G is a subset of edges of G to which the restriction of every perfect matching is a forcing set of it. The complete forcing number of G is the minimum cardinality of…
Given any $\lambda\leq\kappa$, we construct a symmetric extension in which there is a set $X$ such that $\aleph(X)=\lambda$ and $\aleph^*(X)=\kappa$. Consequently, we show that $\mathsf{ZF}+$"For all pairs of infinite cardinals…
