From large cardinals we show the consistency of normal, fine, $\kappa$-complete $\lambda$-dense ideals on $\mathcal{P}_\kappa(\lambda)$ for successor $\kappa$. We explore the interplay between dense ideals, cardinal arithmetic, and squares,…
In a previous work, we associated with any submartingale $X$ of class $(\Sigma)$, defined on a filtered probability space $(\Omega, \mathcal{F}, \mathbb{P}, (\mathcal{F}_t)_{t \geq 0})$ satisfying some technical conditions, a…
For an inaccessible cardinal $\kappa$, the super tree property (ITP) at $\kappa$ holds if and only if $\kappa$ is supercomact. However, just like the tree property, it can hold at successor cardinals. We show that ITP holds at the successor…
In this paper we prove that the support of a random measure on the unit ball of a separable Hilbert space that satisfies the Ghirlanda-Guerra identities must be ultrametric with probability one. This implies the Parisi ultrametricity…
Cummings, Foreman, and Magidor investigated the extent to which square principles are compact at singular cardinals. The first author proved that if $\kappa$ is a singular strong limit of uncountable cofinality, all scales on $\kappa$ are…
For a complete noncompact connected Riemannian manifold with bounded geometry, we prove a compactness result for sequences of finite perimeter sets with uniformly bounded volume and perimeter in a larger space obtained by adding limit…
For a general linear supergroup $G=GL(m|n)$, we consider a natural isomorphism $\phi: G \to U^-\times G_{ev} \times U^+$, where $G_{ev}$ is the even subsupergroup of $G$, and $U^-$, $U^+$ are appropriate odd unipotent subsupergroups of $G$.…
We consider a 2D non-standard Modica-Mortola type functional. This functional arises from the Ginzburg-Landau theory of type-I superconductors in the case of an infinitely long sample and in the regime of comparable penetration and…
We show that in the $\mathbb{P}_{\max}$ extension of a certain Chang-type model of determinacy, if $\kappa\in\{\omega_1, \omega_2, \omega_3\}$, then the restriction of the club filter on $\kappa\cap\mathrm{Cof}(\omega)$ to HOD is an…
This paper shows that finitely additive measures occur naturally in very general Divergence Theorems. The main results are two such theorems. The first proves the existence of pure normal measures for sets of finite perime- ter, which yield…
Foreman proved the Duality Theorem, which gives an algebraic characterization of certain ideal quotients in generic extensions. As an application he proved that generic supercompactness of $\omega_1$ is preserved by any proper forcing. We…
We show a new proof for the fact that when $\kappa$ and $\lambda$ are infinite cardinals satisfying $\lambda ^ \kappa = \lambda$, the cofinality of the set of all functions from $\lambda$ to $\kappa$ ordered by everywhere domination is…
Recent results of Hindman, Leader and Strauss and of the second author and Rinot showed that some natural analogs of Hindman's Theorem fail for all uncountable cardinals. Results in the positive direction were obtained by Komj\'ath, the…
A general construction for $\sigma-$finite absolutely continuous invariant measure will be presented. It will be shown that the local bounded distortion of the Radon-Nykodym derivatives of $f^n_*(\lambda)$ will imply the existence of a…
We prove several results giving lower bounds for the large cardinal strength of a failure of the singular cardinal hypothesis. The main result is the following theorem: Theorem: Suppose $\kappa$ is a singular strong limit cardinal and…
Grade-$d$ measures on a $\sigma$-algebra $\mathcal{A}\subseteq 2^X$ over a set $X$ are generalizations of measures satisfying one of a hierarchy of weak additivity-type conditions initially introduced as interference operators in quantum…
The $n$-dimensional affine group over the integers is the group $\mathcal G_n$ of all affinities on $\mathbb R^{n}$ which leave the lattice $ \mathbb Z^{n}$ invariant. $\mathcal G_n$ yields a geometry in the classical sense of the Erlangen…
We provide a new proof of a theorem whose proof was sketched by Sullivan ('82), namely that if the Poincar\'e exponent of a geometrically finite Kleinian group $G$ is strictly between its minimal and maximal cusp ranks, then the…
We solve a well--known problem in the theory of compact scattered spaces and superatomic boolean algebras by showing that, under GCH and for each regular cardinal $\kappa \geq \omega$, there is a poset $\mathcal P_\kappa$ preserving all…
We study the nonstationary-support iteration of Prikry forcings below a measurable cardinal \kappa, characterizing all the normal measures it carries in the generic extension. We then analyze the restriction of ultrapower embeddings, taken…
