Up to equivalence, a substitution in propositional logic is an endomorphism of its free algebra. On the dual space, this results in a continuous function, and whenever the space carries a natural measure one may ask about the stochastic…

Let $\mathbb{B}$ be a complete Boolean algebra. We show, as an application of a previous result of the author, that if $\lambda$ is an infinite cardinal and $\mathbb{B}$ is weakly $(\lambda^\omega, \omega)$-distributive, then $\mathbb{B}$…

Continuous first-order logic is used to apply model-theoretic analysis to analytic structures (e.g. Hilbert spaces, Banach spaces, probability spaces, etc.). Classical computable model theory is used to examine the algorithmic structure of…

Let $\kappa$ be a regular cardinal, $\lambda<\kappa$ be a smaller infinite cardinal, and $\mathsf K$ be a $\kappa$-accessible category where colimits of $\lambda$-indexed chains exist. We show that various category-theoretic constructions…

In the literature on Kleene algebra (KA), a number of variants have been proposed such as Kleene algebra with tests, commutative KA, bi-KA, and concurrent KA. The equational theories of some of these structures have then been studied in the…

Given a regular cardinal $\kappa$ such that $\kappa^{<\kappa}=\kappa$, we study a class of toposes with enough points, the $\kappa$-separable toposes. These are equivalent to sheaf toposes over a site with $\kappa$-small limits that has at…

We show in detail that every compact countable subset of a metric space is homeomorphic to a countable ordinal number, which extends a result given by Mazurkiewicz and Sierpinski for finite-dimensional Euclidean spaces. In order to achieve…

In the paper the basic concepts of extended probability theory are introduced. The basic idea: the concept of an event as a subset of \Omega is replaced with the concept of an event as a partition. The partition is any set of disjoint…

The logic of uncertainty is not the logic of experience and as well as it is not the logic of chance. It is the logic of experience and chance. Experience and chance are two inseparable poles. These are two dual reflections of one essence,…

Let C denote any of the following cardinal characteristics of Boolean algebras: incomparability, spread, character, pi-character, hereditary Lindelof number, hereditary density. It is shown to be consistent that there exists a sequence…

In [6] we proved that the universal theory of infinite free lattices is (algorithmically) decidable, leaving open the problem of decidability of the full theory of an (infinite) free lattice. We solve this problem by proving that, for every…

Dobrinen, Hathaway and Prikry studied a forcing $\mathbb{P}_\kappa$ consisting of perfect trees of height $\lambda$ and width $\kappa$ where $\kappa$ is a singular $\omega$-strong limit of cofinality $\lambda$. They showed that if $\kappa$…

The {\em Singular Cardinal Hypothesis} (SCH) is one of the most classical combinatorial principles in set theory. It says that if $\kappa$ is singular strong limit, then $2^{\kappa}=\kappa^+$. We prove that given a singular cardinal…

This article is devoted to two different generalizations of projective Boolean algebras: openly generated Boolean algebras and tightly sigma-filtered Boolean algebras. We show that for every uncountable regular cardinal kappa there are…

A class of ring-like event systems (RLSEs) is studied that generalizes Boolean rings. Quantum logics represented by orthomodular lattices are characterized within this class and the correspondence between Boolean algebras and Boolean rings…

Definition. Let $\kappa$ be an infinite cardinal, let {X(i)} be a (not necessarily faithfully indexed) set of topological spaces, and let X be the product of the spaces X(i). The $\kappa$-box product topology on X is the topology generated…

Let $\kappa$,$\lambda$ be regular uncountable cardinals such that $\lambda > \kappa^+$ is not a successor of a singular cardinal of low cofinality. We construct a generic extension with $s(\kappa) = \lambda$ starting from a ground model in…

We try to build, provably in ZFC, for a first order T a model in which any isomorphism between two Boolean algebras is definable. The problem, compared to [Sh:384], is with pseudo-finite Boolean algebras. A side benefit is that we do not…

For finite semidistributive lattices the map $\kappa$ gives a bijection between the sets of completely join-irreducible elements and completely meet-irreducible elements. Here we study the $\kappa$-map in the context of torsion classes. It…
