A canary tree is a tree of cardinality the continuum which has no uncountable branch, but gains a branch whenever a stationary set is destroyed (without adding reals). Canary trees are important in infinitary model theory. The existence of…

We present a direct proof of the consistency of the existence of a five element basis for the uncountable linear orders. Our argument is based on the approach of notion of saturation of Aronszajn trees considered by Koenig, Larson, Moore…

It is proved that the consistency strength of having definable tree property for successors of all regular cardinals is the consistency strength of having proper class many small large cardinals which are defined very similar to…

A group is Artinian if there is no infinite strictly descending chain of subgroups. Ol'shanskii has asked whether there are Artinian groups of arbitrarily large cardinality. We show that this problem is essentially the same as an analogous…

A tree-based network on a set $X$ of $n$ leaves is said to be universal if any rooted binary phylogenetic tree on $X$ can be its base tree. Francis and Steel showed that there is a universal tree-based network on $X$ in the case of $n=3$,…

For any cardinal $\kappa \geq 2$, there is a unique complete real tree whose points all have valence $\kappa$. In this note, we show that, when $\kappa \geq 3$, it is necessary to assume completeness. More precisely, we show that there…

There is a well-known correspondence between infinite trees and ultrametric spaces which can be interpreted as an equivalence of categories and comes from considering the end space of the tree. In this equivalence, uniformly continuous maps…

Recall that the Rado graph is the unique countable graph that realizes all one-point extensions of its finite subgraphs. The Rado graph is well-known to be universal and homogeneous in the sense that every isomorphism between finite…

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…

Starting from a supercompact cardinal we build a model in which $2^{\aleph_{\omega_1}}=2^{\aleph_{\omega_1+1}}=\aleph_{\omega_1+3}$ but there is a jointly universal family of size $\aleph_{\omega_1+2}$ of graphs on $\aleph_{\omega_1+1}$.…

A $\kappa$-tree is said to be full if each of its limit levels omits no more than one potential branch. Kunen asked whether a full $\kappa$-Souslin tree may consistently exist. Shelah gave an affirmative answer of height a strong limit…

The Brownian tree, also known as the continuum random tree, is a canonical random compact, geodesic $\mathbf R$-tree that arises as the universal scaling limit for numerous models of discrete random trees. A key quasisymmetric invariant of…

A tree T_uni is m-universal for the class of trees if for every tree T of size m, T can be obtained from T_uni by successive contractions of edges. We prove that a m-universal tree for the class of trees has at least mln(m) + (gamma-1)m +…

We deal with the existence of universal members in a given cardinality for several classes. First we deal with classes of Abelian groups, specifically with the existence of universal members in cardinalities which are strong limit singular…

We investigate the consistency strength of the statement: $\kappa$ is weakly compact and there is no tree on $\kappa$ with exactly $\kappa^{+}$ many branches. We show that this statement fails strongly (in the sense that there is a sealed…

We answer three questions posed by Bubeck and Linial on the limit densities of subtrees in trees. We prove there exist positive $\varepsilon_1$ and $\varepsilon_2$ such that every tree that is neither a path nor a star has inducibility at…

By weighted tree we understand such connected tree,that: a) each its vertex and each edge have a positive integer weight; b) the weight of each vertex is equal to the sum of weights of outgoing edges. Each tree has a binary structure --- we…

We consider the rooted trees which not have isomorphic representation and introduce a conception of complexity a natural number also. The connection between quantity such trees with $n$ edges and a complexity of natural number $n$ is…

We study the relationship between a $\kappa$-Souslin tree $T$ and its reduced powers $T^\theta/\mathcal U$. Previous works addressed this problem from the viewpoint of a single power $\theta$, whereas here, tools are developed for…

We investigate questions involving Aronszajn trees, square principles, and stationary reflection. We first consider two strengthenings of $\square(\kappa)$ introduced by Brodsky and Rinot for the purpose of constructing $\kappa$-Souslin…
