Let $\Omega$ be a smooth bounded domain in $\mahbb R^N$ with $N\ge 3$ and let $\Sigma_k$ be a closed smooth submanifold of $\delta \Omega$ of dimension $1\le k\le N-2$. In this paper we study the weighted Hardy inequality with weight…
We prove that a $T_0$ topological space is $\omega$-well-filtered if and only if it does not admit either the natural numbers with the cofinite topology or with the Scott topology as its closed subsets in the strong topology. Based on this,…
The Robinson Splitting Theorem states that a c.e. degree $\mathbf{b}$ splits over any low c.e. degree $\mathbf{c}<\mathbf{b}$. We prove that a weaker version of this theorem holds in models of $\mathrm{P}^-+\mathrm{I}\Sigma_1$, with lowness…
Let $\mathrm{R}$ be a real closed field and $\mathrm{C}$ the algebraic closure of $\mathrm{R}$. We give an algorithm for computing a semi-algebraic basis for the first homology group, $\mathrm{H}_1(S,\mathbb{F})$, with coefficients in a…
We stratify intuitionistic first-order logic over $(\forall,\to)$ into fragments determined by the alternation of positive and negative occurrences of quantifiers (Mints hierarchy). We study the decidability and complexity of these…
Let ${\cal Z}_1(s) = \int_1^\infty |\zeta({1\over2}+ix)|^2x^{-s}{\rm d}x (\sigma = \Re s > 1)$. A result concerning analytic continuation of ${\cal Z}_1(s)$ to $\bf C$ is proved, and also a result relating the order of ${\cal Z}_1(\sigma +…
Goldstern showed in his 1993 paper that the union of a real-parametrized, monotone family of Lebesgue measure zero sets has also Lebesgue measure zero provided that the sets are uniformly $\boldsymbol{\Sigma}^1_1$. Our aim is to study to…
The main purpose of this paper is to show that the mixed Hodge polynomial of the ``space of equations'' for smooth complete intersections of given multidegree in $\mathbb{C} P^n$ is divisible by the mixed Hodge polynomial of the group…
The main result: for every sequence $\{\omega_m\}_{m=1}^\infty$ of positive numbers ($\omega_m>0)$ there exists an isometric embedding $F:[0,1]\to L_1[0,1]$ which is nowhere differentiable, but for each $t\in [0,1]$ the image $F_t$ is…
In partial answer to a question posed by Arnie Miller (http://www.math.wisc.edu/~miller/res/problem.pdf) and X. Caicedo, we obtain sufficient conditions for an L_{omega_1,omega} theory to have an independent axiomatization. As a consequence…
We present natural constructions of trees and gaps using a quite general construction scheme. In particular, we solve a natural problem about $(\omega_1, \omega_1)$-gaps. As it is well known $(\omega_1, \omega_1)$-gaps can sometimes be…
We show that, for any graph $F$ and $\eta>0$, there exists a $d_0=d_0(F,\eta)$ such that every $n$-vertex $d$-regular graph with $d \geq d_0$ has a collection of vertex-disjoint $F$-subdivisions covering at least $(1-\eta)n$ vertices. This…
In this note we will discuss a new reflection principle which follows from the Proper Forcing Axiom. The immediate purpose will be to prove that the bounded form of the Proper Forcing Axiom implies both that 2^omega = omega_2 and that…
If $\Sigma$ and $\Sigma'$ are homotopic embedded surfaces in a $4$-manifold then they may be related by a regular homotopy (at the expense of introducing double points) or by a sequence of stabilisations and destabilisations (at the expense…
We show that the theory $I\Sigma_1$ of $\Sigma_1$-induction proves the following statement: For all $n\geq 2$, the uniform $\Sigma_1$-reflection principle over the theory $I\Sigma_n$ is equivalent to the totality of the function…
We introduce a class of notions of forcing which we call $\Sigma$-Prikry, and show that many of the known Prikry-type notions of forcing that centers around singular cardinals of countable cofinality are $\Sigma$-Prikry. We show that given…
We introduce the notion of halfspaces associated to a group splitting, and investigate the relationship between the coarse geometry of the halfspaces and the coarse geometry of the group. Roughly speaking, the halfspaces of a group…
An $\omega_1$-compact space is a space in which every closed discrete subspace is countable. We give various general conditions under which a locally compact, $\omega_1$-compact space is $\sigma$-countably compact, i.e., the union of…
Let $\gamma_1,\gamma_2$ be a pair of constant-degree irreducible algebraic curves in $\mathbb{R}^d$. Assume that $\gamma_i$ is neither contained in a hyperplane nor in a quadric surface in $\mathbb{R}^d$, for each $i=1,2$. We show that for…
We answer a question from Raghavan and Stepr{\=a}ns' paper on weakly tight families by showing that $\mathfrak{s} = {\mathfrak{s}}_{\omega, \omega}$. Then we use this to construct a completely separable maximal almost disjoint family under…
