There has arisen in recent years a substantial theory of "multiplier ideals'' in commutative rings. These are integrally closed ideals with properties that lend themselves to highly interesting applications. But how special are they among…

We consider point sets in the affine plane $\mathbb{F}_q^2$ where each Euclidean distance of two points is an element of $\mathbb{F}_q$. These sets are called integral point sets and were originally defined in $m$-dimensional Euclidean…

In this paper, we introduce an invariant of Cohen-Macaulay local rings in terms of the reduction number of canonical ideals. The invariant can be defined in arbitrary Cohen-Macaulay rings and it measures how close to being Gorenstein.…

We study the influence of the existence of large cardinals on the existence of wellorderings of power sets of infinite cardinals $\kappa$ with the property that the collection of all initial segments of the wellordering is definable by a…

We study the behavior of multidegrees in families and the existence of numerical criteria to detect integral dependence. We show that mixed multiplicities of modules are upper semicontinuous functions when taking fibers and that projective…

This dissertation surveys several topics in the general areas of iterated forcing, infinite combinatorics and set theory of the reals. There are two parts. In the first half I consider alternative versions of the Cicho\'n diagram. First I…

In this note we calculate the multiplier ideal associated to an arbitrary monomial ideal in C^n. We discuss applications to the calculation of log canonical thresholds.

Let X be a compact Hausdorf space, let A be a commutative unital Banach algebra, and let C(X,A) denote the algebra of continuous A-valued functions on $X$ equipped with the uniform norm ||f||=sup{||f(x)||:x\in X} for all f in C(X,A).…

Let $K$ be a number field, $\mathfrak{q}$ be an integral ideal, and $\mathrm{Cl}(\mathfrak{q})$ be the associated ray class group. Suppose $\mathrm{Cl}(\mathfrak{q})$ possesses a real exceptional character $\psi$, possibly principal, with a…

This paper investigates the problem of extending measure theory to non-separable structures, from generalized descriptive set theory to a broader class of spaces beyond this framework. While various notions, such as the ideal of measure…

Properties of Lipschitz and d.c. surfaces of finite codimension in a Banach space, and properties of generated $\sigma$-ideals are studied. These $\sigma$-ideals naturally appear in the differentiation theory and in the abstract…

Let $\gamma$ be a filling curve on a topological surface $\Sigma$ of genus $g \geq 2$. The inf invariant of $\gamma$, denoted $m_{\gamma}$, is the infimum of the length function on the space of marked hyperbolic structures on $\Sigma$. This…

We consider an homogeneous ideal $I$ in the polynomial ring $S=K[x_1,\dots,$ $x_m]$ over a finite field $K=\mathbb{F}_q$ and the finite set of projective rational points $\mathbb{X}$ that it defines in the projective space…

We introduce a new class of monomial ideals, called strong Borel type ideals, and we compute the Mumford-Castelnouvo regularity for principal strong Borel type ideals. Also, we describe the d-fixed ideals generated by powers of variables…

For $\kappa$ regular and uncountable we define variants of the classical cardinal characteristics modulo the non-stationary ideal.

It is well-known that within Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory (ZF), the Axiom of Choice (AC) implies the Maximal Ideal Theorem (MIT), namely that every nontrivial commutative ring has a maximal ideal. The converse implication MIT $\Rightarrow$…

Denote by $\mathcal{NA}$ and $\mathcal{MA}$ the ideals of null-additive and meager-additive subsets of~$2^\omega$, respectively. We prove in ZFC that $\mathrm{add}(\mathcal{NA})=\mathrm{non}(\mathcal{NA})$ and introduce a new (Polish)…

Let $R$ be a Cohen-Macaulay local ring, $I$ a strongly Cohen-Macaulay ideal of $R$. We show that $R/{\rm Ann}_R(I)$ is a maximal Cohen-Macaulay $R$-module by means of the delta-invariant. Also it is shown that there exists a Cohen-Macaulay…

In this paper we investigate the covering machinery of the Jensen-Steel core model $K$, under the hypothesis that there is no inner model with a Woodin cardinal. In an earlier work, Mitchell and the first author showed that if…
