Let $T^*$ be an almost Suslin tree, that is, an Aronszajn tree with no stationary antichains. Krueger introduced a forcing axiom, $\mathrm{PFA}(T^*)$, for the class of proper forcings that preserve that $T^*$ is almost Suslin. He showed…

In [5], Hjorth proved that for every countable ordinal $\alpha$, there exists a complete $\mathcal{L}_{\omega_1,\omega}$-sentence $\phi_\alpha$ that has models of all cardinalities less than or equal to $\aleph_\alpha$, but no models of…

Large cardinals arising from the existence of arbitrarily long end elementary extension chains over models of set theory are studied here. In particular, we show that the large cardinals obtained that way (`Unfoldable cardinals') behave as…

Assuming some large cardinals, a model of ZFC is obtained in which aleph_{omega+1} carries no Aronszajn trees. It is also shown that if lambda is a singular limit of strongly compact cardinals, then lambda^+ carries no Aronszajn trees.

We review and analyse techniques from the literature for extending a normed algebra, A to a normed algebra, B, so that B has interesting or desirable properties which A may lack. For example, B might include roots of monic polynomials over…

We show that for a Suslin ccc forcing notion $\mathbb Q$ adding a Hechler real, ``$\text{ZF}+\text{DC}_{\omega_1}+$all sets of reals are $I_{\mathbb Q,\aleph_0}$-measurable'' implies the existence of an inner model with a measurable…

Based on the work of Shelah, Kellner, and T\u{a}nasie (Fund. Math., 166(1-2):109-136, 2000 and Comment. Math. Univ. Carolin., 60(1):61-95, 2019), and the recent developments in the third author's master's thesis, we develop a general theory…

The preservation theorems for semi-properness, hemi-properness, and pseudo-completeness hold for countable support iterations as well as revised countable support iterations, notwithstanding the fact that the "factor lemma" fails for the…

The purpose of this article is to give new constructions of linear orders which are minimal with respect to being non-$\sigma$-scattered. Specifically, we will show that Jensen's principle $\diamondsuit$ implies that there is a minimal…

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 develop a version of Cichon's diagram for cardinal invariants on the generalized Cantor space 2^kappa or the generalized Baire space kappa^kappa where kappa is an uncountable regular cardinal. For strongly inaccessible kappa, many of the…

We provide analogues of the results from [FMR11, CMMR13] in the reference list (which correspond to the case $\kappa = \omega$) for arbitrary $\kappa$-Souslin quasi-orders on any Polish space, for $\kappa$ an infinite cardinal smaller than…

Szpilrajn's Lemma entails that each partial order extends to a linear order. Dushnik and Miller use Szpilrajn's Lemma to show that each partial order has a relizer. Since then, many authors utilize Szpilrajn's Theorem and the Well-ordering…

We show that all finite powers of a Hausdorff space X do not contain uncountable weakly separated subspaces iff there is a c.c.c poset P such that 1_P forces that ``X is a countable union of 0-dimensional subspaces of countable weight.'' We…

We introduce and investigate a class of non-separable tree-like Banach spaces. As a consequence, we prove that we can not achieve a satisfactory extension of Rosenthal's $\ell_1$-theorem to spaces of the type $\ell_1(\kappa)$, for $\kappa$…

We show that Morley's theorem on the number of countable models of a countable first-order theory becomes an undecidable statement when extended to second-order logic. More generally, we calculate the number of equivalence classes of…

We show it is consistent with $\ZFC$ that there is an everywhere Kurepa line which is order isomorphic to all of its dense $\aleph_2$-dense suborders. Moreover, this Kurepa line does not contain any Aronszajn suborder. We also show it is…

Larman showed that any closed subset of the plane with uncountable vertical cross-sections has aleph_1 disjoint Borel uniformizing sets. Here we show that Larman's result is best possible: there exist closed sets with uncountable…

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 note, we study the geometry of the unit ball of the Banach space generated by the adequate family of all subsets of branches of the infinite binary tree, and answer several open questions related to slicely countably determined…
