Motivated by an old conjecture of P. Erd\H{o}s and V. Neumann-Lara, our aim is to investigate digraphs with uncountable dichromatic number and orientations of undirected graphs with uncountable chromatic number. A graph has uncountable…
Answering some of the main questions from [MR13], we show that whenever $\kappa$ is a cardinal satisfying $\kappa^{< \kappa} = \kappa > \omega$, then the embeddability relation between $\kappa$-sized structures is strongly invariantly…
Extending a recent breakthrough of Shitov, we prove that the chromatic number of the tensor product of two graphs can be a constant factor smaller than the minimum chromatic number of the two graphs. More precisely, we prove that there…
In any vertex coloring of a graph some edges have differently colored ends (\emph{good} edges) and some are monochromatic (\emph{bad} edges). In a proper coloring all edges are good. In a \emph{majority coloring} it is enough that for every…
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…
It is proved to be consistent relative to a measurable cardinal that there is a uniform ultrafilter on the real numbers which is generated by fewer than the maximum possible number of sets. It is also shown to be consistent relative to a…
Erd\H{o}s proved that there are graphs with arbitrarily large girth and chromatic number. We study the extension of this for generalized chromatic numbers.
In this paper, we obtain the consistency, relative to large cardinals, of the existence of dense ideals on every successor of a regular cardinal simultaneously. Using a consequent transfer principle, we show that in this model there is a…
For every uncountable cardinal $\lambda$, suitable negations of the Generalized Continuum Hypothesis imply: - For all infinite $\alpha$ and $\beta$, there is no universal $K_{\alpha,\beta}$-free graphs in $\lambda$ - For all $\alpha\ge 3$,…
We prove that there exists a countable family of continuous real functions whose graphs together with their inverses cover an uncountable square, i.e. a set of the form $X\times X$, where $X$ is an uncountable subset of the real line. This…
We introduce the following weak version of Hadwiger's conjecture: If $G$ is a graph and $\kappa$ is a cardinal such that there is no coloring map $c:G \to \kappa$, then $K_\kappa$ is a minor of $G$. We prove that this statement is true for…
We study the analytic digraphs of uncountable Borel chromatic number on Polish spaces, and compare them with the notion of injective Borel homomorphism. We provide some minimal digraphs incomparable with G 0. We also prove the existence of…
Since the theory developed by Georg Cantor, mathematicians have taken a sharp interest in the sizes of infinite sets. We know that the set of integers is infinitely countable and that its cardinality is Aleph0. Cantor proved in 1891 with…
Let n>0 be a number. Let Gn be the graph on n-dimensional Euclidean space connecting points of rational distance. It is consistent with the choiceless theory ZF+DC that Gn has countable chromatic number yet Gn+1 does not.
We define a weak iterability notion that is sufficient for a number of arguments concerning $\Sigma_1$-definability at uncountable regular cardinals. In particular we give its exact consistency strength firstly in terms of the second…
We prove that the strong polarized relation of $\theta$ above $\omega$ applied simultaneously for every cardinal in the interval $[\aleph_1,\aleph]$ is consistent. We conclude that this positive relation is consistent for every cardinal…
We introduce a natural generalization of Borel's Conjecture. For each infinite cardinal number $\kappa$, let {\sf BC}$_{\kappa}$ denote this generalization. Then ${\sf BC}_{\aleph_0}$ is equivalent to the classical Borel conjecture.…
We prove that if ZF is consistent then ZFC+GCH is consistent with the following statement: There is for every k<omega a model of cardinality aleph_1 which is L_{infty,omega_1}-equivalent to exactly k non-isomorphic models of cardinality…
We study several natural classes of graphs on a zero-dimensional metrizable compact space having no continuous coloring. We compare these graphs with the quasi-order associated with injective continuous homomorphisms. We prove the existence…
We show that if the existence of a supercompact cardinal $\kappa$ with a weakly compact cardinal $\lambda$ above $\kappa$ is consistent, then the following are consistent as well (where $\mathfrak{t}(\kappa)$ and $\mathfrak{u}(\kappa)$ are…
