The main result of this paper is a probabilistic construction of finite rigid structures. It yields a finitely axiomatizable class of finite rigid structures where no L^omega_{infty, omega} formula with counting quantifiers defines a linear…
We investigate structural implications arising from the condition that a given directed graph does not interpret, in the sense of primitive positive interpretation with parameters or orbits, every finite structure. Our results generalize…
We apply ideas from the theory of limits of dense combinatorial structures to study order types, which are combinatorial encodings of finite point sets. Using flag algebras we obtain new numerical results on the Erd\H{o}s problem of finding…
For certain weak versions of the Axiom of Choice (most notably, the Boolean Prime Ideal theorem), we obtain equivalent formulations in terms of partial orders, and filter-like objects within them intersecting certain dense sets or…
Existing work on quantum causal structure assumes that one can perform arbitrary operations on the systems of interest. But this condition is often not met. Here, we extend the framework for quantum causal modelling to situations where a…
Every partial applicative structure gives rise to an indexed binary relation, that is a contravariant functor from the category of sets to the category of sets endowed with binary relations and maps preserving them. In this paper we…
We introduce the split principles and show that they bear tight connections to large cardinal properties such as inaccessibility, weak compactness, subtlety, almost ineffability and ineffability, as well as classical combinatorial objects…
In this paper, we study the product of orders of composition factors of odd order in a composition series of a finite linear group. First we generalize a result by Manz and Wolf about the order of solvable linear groups of odd order. Then…
Choice and independence of premise principles play an important role in characterizing Kreisel's modified realizability and G\"odel's Dialectica interpretation. In this paper we show that a great many intuitionistic set theories are closed…
Assume ZF (without the Axiom of Choice). Let $j:V_\varepsilon\to V_\delta$ be a non-trivial $\in$-cofinal $\Sigma_1$-elementary embedding, where $\varepsilon,\delta$ are limit ordinals. We prove some restrictions on the constructibility of…
We investigate the logical strength of the cohesiveness principle when restricted to finite sequences of sets, denoted by fin-COH, over different base theories. Our main result shows that fin-COH entails $I\Sigma_1^0$ over the weaker base…
We prove specific biases in the number of occurrences of parts belonging to two different residue classes $a$ and $b$, modulo a fixed non-negative integer $m$, for the sets of unrestricted partitions, partitions into distinct parts, and…
Almost nothing is known about the parity of the partition function $p(n)$, which is conjectured to be random. Despite this expectation, Ono surprisingly proved the existence of infinitely many linear dependence congruence relations modulo 4…
We study the computational content of various theorems with reverse mathematical strength around Arithmetical Transfinite Recursion ($\mathsf{ATR}_0$) from the point of view of computability-theoretic reducibilities, in particular Weihrauch…
The main purpose of this paper is to investigate some natural problems regarding the order structure of representable functionals on $^*$-algebras. We describe the extreme points of order intervals, and give a nontrivial sufficient…
Assuming the P-ideal dichotomy, we attempt to isolate those cardinal characteristics of the continuum that are correlated with two well-known consequences of the proper forcing axiom. We find a cardinal invariant $\mathfrak{x}$ such that…
We study the reverse mathematics of pigeonhole principles for finite powers of the ordinal $\omega$. Four natural formulations are presented and their relative strengths are compared. In the analysis of the pigeonhole principle for…
We define a certain finite set in set theory $\{x\mid\varphi(x)\}$ and prove that it exhibits a universal extension property: it can be any desired particular finite set in the right set-theoretic universe and it can become successively any…
We prove a conjecture of H.Widom stated in [W] (math/0108008) about the reality of eigenvalues of certain infinite matrices arising in asymptotic analysis of large Toeplitz determinants. As a byproduct we obtain a new proof of A.Okounkov's…
We introduce a notion of relative primeness for equivalence relations, strengthening the notion of non-reducibility, and show for many standard benchmark equivalence relations that non-reducibility may be strengthened to relative primeness.…
