We study sharp conditions for the existence and nonexistence of infinitely many nonnegative solutions to the problem $-\Delta_p u = \lambda f(u)$ in a bounded domain with Dirichlet boundary conditions, where $f$ is a continuous function…
By Glimm's dichotomy, a separable, simple $\textrm{C}^*$-algebra has continuum-many unitarily inequivalent irreducible representations if, and only if, it is non-type I while all of its irreducible representations are unitarily equivalent…
We say that a convergence law holds for a sequence of random combinatorial objects if, for any first-order sentence $\varphi$, the proportion of objects satisfying $\varphi$ converges to a limiting value as the size of the objects tends to…
We study first-order concatenation theory with bounded quantifiers. We give axiomatizations with interesting properties, and we prove some normal-form results. Finally, we prove a number of decidability and undecidability results.
S. Banach \cite{Banach} proved that good differential properties of function do not guarantee the a.e. convergence of the Fourier series of this function with respect to general orthonormal systems (ONS). On the other hand it is very well…
The connections between Whitehead groups and uniformization properties were investigated by the third author in [Sh:98]. In particular it was essentially shown there that there is a non-free Whitehead (respectively, aleph_1-coseparable)…
We introduce a hierarchy of models of the Axiom of Determinacy called \emph{Nairian models}. Forcing over the simplest Nairian model, we obtain a model of ${\sf{ZFC}}+{\sf{MM^{++}}}(c)+\neg\square_{\omega_3}+\neg\square(\omega_3)$. Then,…
We introduce the notion of a `pure` Abstract Elementary Class to block trivial counterexamples. We study classes of models of bipartite graphs and show: Main Theorem (cf. Theorem 3.5.2 and Corollary 3.5.6): If $(\lambda_i : i \le…
This paper is an overview of results that show the Brouwer fixed-point theorem (BFPT) to be essentially non-constructive and non-computable. The main results, the counter-examples of Orevkov and Baigger, imply that there is no procedure for…
In this paper, methods of second order and higher order reverse mathematics are applied to versions of a theorem of Banach that extends the Schroeder-Bernstein theorem. Some additional results address statements in higher order arithmetic…
We prove that every continuum of weight aleph_1 is a continuous image of the Cech-Stone-remainder R^* of the real line. It follows that under CH the remainder of the half line [0,infty) is universal among the continua of weight c ---…
We prove that \textsf{P}-points (even strong P-points) and Gruff ultrafilters exist in any forcing extension obtained by adding fewer than $\aleph_{\omega}% $-many random reals to a model of \textsf{CH. }These results improve and correct…
Given a fixed $\alpha \in (0,1)$, we study the inverse problem of recovering the isometry class of a smooth closed and connected Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$, given the knowledge of a source-to-solution map for the fractional Laplace…
An omega-coloring is a pair <f,B> where f:[B]^{2} ---> omega. The set B is the field of f and denoted Fld(f). Let f,g be omega-colorings. We say that f realizes the coloring g if there is a one-one function k:Fld(g) ---> Fld(f) such that…
We define the $\aleph_{1.5}$ chain condition. The corresponding forcing axiom is a generalization of Martin's Axiom and implies certain uniform failures of club--guessing on $\omega_1$ that don't seem to have been considered in the…
We prove in ZFC, no psi in L_{omega_1,omega}[Q] have unique model of uncountable cardinality, this confirms theBaldwin conjecture. But we analyze this in more general terms. We introduce and investigate a.e.c. and also versions of limit…
Let $\alpha$ and $\beta$ be irrational real numbers and $0<\F<1/30$. We prove a precise estimate for the number of positive integers $q\leq Q$ that satisfy $\|q\alpha\|\cdot\|q\beta\|<\F$. If we choose $\F$ as a function of $Q$ we get…
Duffin and Schaeffer provided a famous counterexample to show that Khintchine's theorem fails without monotonicity assumption. Given any monotonically decreasing approximation function with divergent series, we construct…
Let kappa be an uncountable cardinal and the edges of a complete graph with kappa vertices be colored with aleph_0 colors. For kappa >2^{aleph_0} the Erd\H{o}s-Rado theorem implies that there is an infinite monochromatic subgraph. However,…
In this paper, the theory of Gelfand problems is adapted to the 1--Laplacian setting. Concretely, we deal with the following problem \begin{equation*} \left\{\begin{array}{cc} -\Delta_1u=\lambda f(u) &\hbox{in }\Omega\,;\\[2mm] u=0…
