The classical notion of {\L}ojasiewicz ideals of smooth functions is studied in the context of non-quasianalytic Denjoy-Carleman classes. In the case of principal ideals, we obtain a characterization of {\L}ojasiewicz ideals in terms of…

For an ideal of smooth functions that is either {\L}ojasiewicz or weakly {\L}ojasiewicz, we give a complete characterization of the ideal of functions vanishing on its variety in terms of the global {\L}ojasiewicz radical and Whitney…

We construct an example of a smooth convex function on the plane with a strict minimum at zero, which is real analytic except at zero, for which Thom's gradient conjecture fails both at zero and infinity. More precisely, the gradient orbits…

Let A be a noetherian commutative ring, and let I be an ideal in A. We study questions of flatness and I-adic completeness for infinitely generated A-modules. This is done using the notions of decaying function and I-adically free A-module.

The ring of Fermat reals is an extension of the real field containing nilpotent infinitesimals, and represents an alternative to Synthetic Differential Geometry in classical logic. In the present paper, our first aim is to study this ring…

Let $X$ be an uncountable Polish space and let $\mathcal{I}$ be an ideal on $\omega$. A point $\eta \in X$ is an $\mathcal{I}$-limit point of a sequence $(x_n)$ taking values in $X$ if there exists a subsequence $(x_{k_n})$ convergent to…

We give an expression for the {\L}ojasiewicz exponent of a set of ideals which are pieces of a weighted homogeneous filtration. We also study the application of this formula to the computation of the {\L}ojasiewicz exponent of the gradient…

In this article, we prove that for a broad class of second order elliptic PDEs, including the Laplacian, the zero sets of solutions to the Dirichlet problem are smooth for "generic" $L^2$ data. When the zero set of a solution (e.g. a…

Given an ideal $\mathcal{I}$ on the nonnegative integers $\omega$ and a Polish space $X$, let $\mathscr{L}(\mathcal{I})$ be the family of subsets $S\subseteq X$ such that $S$ is the set of $\mathcal{I}$-limit points of some sequence taking…

A classical theorem due to Mycielski states that an equivalence relation $E$ having the Baire property and meager equivalence classes must have a perfect set of pairwise inequivalent elements. We consider equivalence relations with…

The purpose of this paper is to prove a new general result about rings of complex analytic functions. Let $\Omega$ be an arbitrary nonempty open subset of the complex plane $\mathbb C$, $\mathcal{A}(\Omega)$ be the set of holomorphic…

An ideal triangulation of a singular flat surface is a geodesic triangulation such that its vertex set is equal to the set of singular points of the surface. Using the fact that each pair of points in a surface has a finite number of…

Consider the subring $\mathcal{R}_cL$ of continuous real-valued functions defined on a frame $L$, comprising functions with a countable pointfree image. We present some useful properties of $\mathcal{R}_cL$. We establish that both…

With each of the usual tree forcings I (e.g., I = Sacks forcing S, Laver forcing L, Miller forcing M, Mathias forcing R, etc.) we associate a sigma--ideal i^0 on the reals as follows: A \in i^0 iff for all T \in I there is S \leq T (i.e. S…

Quasi-socle ideals, that is the ideals $I$ of the form $I= Q : \mathfrak{m}^q$ in a Noetherian local ring $(A, \mathfrak{m})$ with the Gorenstein tangent cone $\mathrm{G}(\mathfrak{m}) = \bigoplus_{n \geq…

The Boolean ring $B$ of measurable subsets of the unit interval, modulo sets of measure zero, has proper radical ideals (e.g., $\{0\})$ that are closed under the natural metric, but has no prime ideals closed under that metric; hence closed…
