We give an example of a countable theory T such that for every cardinal lambda >= aleph_2 there is a fully indiscernible set A of power lambda such that the principal types are dense over A, yet there is no atomic model of T over A. In…

We show there exists a complete theory in a language of size continuum possessing a unique atomic model which is not constructible. We also show it is consistent with $ZFC + \aleph_1 < 2^{\aleph_0}$ that there is a complete theory in a…

We develop a topological framework in an attempt to generalize the classical colourful Caratheodory theorem by imposing an additional constraint. For that we introduce the notion of zero-avoding complexes and covering criteria for the…

Following their resolution of the Erd\H{o}s $B+B+t$ problem, Kra Moreira, Richter, and Robertson posed a number of questions and conjectures related to infinite configurations in positive density subsets of the integers and other amenable…

We calibrate the reverse mathematical strength of a family of extensions of Ramsey's theorem to finite colorings of certain subsets of the natural numbers of unbounded finite dimension. Specifically, we analyze the principles…

We introduce several new set-theoretic axioms formulated in terms of coloring of ordinals by reals. We show that these axioms generalize the axioms considered by I.Juhasz, L.Soukup and Z.Szentmiklossy, and give a class of p.o.s including…

We continue our study of strongly unbounded colorings, this time focusing on subadditive maps. In Part I of this series, we showed that, for many pairs of infinite cardinals $\theta<\kappa$, the existence of a strongly unbounded coloring…

We give a negative answer to a question of Erdos and Hajnal: it is consistent that GCH holds and there is a colouring $c:[{\omega_2}]^2\to 2$ establishing $\omega_2 \not\to [(\omega_1;{\omega})]^2_2$ such that some colouring…

We extend Baumgartner's result on isomorphisms of aleph_1 dense subsets of the reals R in two ways: First, the function can be made to be absolutely continuous. Second, one can replace R by R^n.

We prove Los conjecture = Morley theorem in ZF, with the same characterization (of first order countable theories categorical in aleph_alpha for some (equivalently for every) ordinal alpha>0. Another central result here is, in this context:…

We give a simpler proof of a result of Hodkinson in the context of a blow and blur up construction argueing that the idea at heart is similar to that adopted by Andr\'eka et all \cite{sayed}. The idea is to blow up a finite structure,…

We investigate some Weihrauch problems between $\mathsf{ATR}_2$ and $\mathsf{C}_{\omega^\omega}$ . We show that the fixed point theorem for monotone operators on the Cantor space (a weaker version of the Knaster-Tarski theorem) is not…

We construct a model in which MA$_{\omega_1}$(S)[S] holds and $\mathcal{K}_2$ fails. This shows that MA$_{\omega_1}$(S)[S] does not imply $\mathcal{K}_2$ and answers an old question of Larson and Todorcevic in [3]. We also investigate…

We consider some coloring issues related to the famous Erd\H {o}s Discrepancy Problem. A set of the form $A_{s,k}=\{s,2s,\dots,ks\}$, with $s,k\in \mathbb{N}$, is called a \emph{homogeneous arithmetic progression}. We prove that for every…

We provide a short proof of a conic version of the colorful Carath\'eodory theorem for oriented matroids. Holmsen's extension of the colorful Carath\'eodory theorem to oriented matroids (Advances in Mathematics, 2016) already encompasses…

Inspired by a question of Kra, Moreira, Richter, and Robertson, we prove two new results about infinite polynomial configurations in large subsets of the rational numbers. First, given a finite coloring of $\mathbb{Q}$, we show that there…

Our theme is that not every interesting question in set theory is independent of $ZFC$. We give an example of a first order theory $T$ with countable $D(T)$ which cannot have a universal model at $\aleph_1$ without CH; we prove in $ZFC$ a…

We give results exploring the relationship between dominating and unbounded reals in Hechler extensions, as well as the relationships among the extensions themselves. We show that in the standard Hechler extension there is an unbounded real…

Let $G$ be a finite abelian group with exponent $n$, and let $r$ be a positive integer. Let $A$ be a $k\times m$ matrix with integer entries. We show that if $A$ satisfies some natural conditions and $|G|$ is large enough then, for each…

Let $\kappa$ be any regular cardinal. Assuming the existence of a huge cardinal above $\kappa$, we prove the consistency of $\binom{\kappa^{++}}{\kappa^+}\rightarrow\binom{\tau}{\kappa^+}$ for every ordinal $\tau<\kappa^{++}$. Likewise, we…
