Reflection principles (or dually speaking, compactness principles) often give rise to combinatorial guessing principles. Uniformization properties, on the other hand, are examples of anti-guessing principles. We discuss the tension and the…
We introduce a new class of fractional backward orthogonal functions designed for the spectral approximation of weakly singular adjoint Volterra integral equations. These basis functions generate an approximation space that naturally…
This is the first of a series of papers in which we initiate and develop the theory of reflection monoids, motivated by the theory of reflection groups. The main results identify a number of important inverse semigroups as reflection…
We show, assuming the consistency of one measurable cardinal, that it is consistent for there to be exactly kappa+ many normal measures on the least measurable cardinal kappa. This answers a question of Stewart Baldwin. The methods…
In this paper, we pursue our series of papers aiming to show the applicability of the concept of very weak solutions. We consider a wave model with irregular position dependent mass and dissipation terms, in particular, allowing for…
In this paper, we demonstrate that if, for every $\kappa$-complete fine filter $F$ over $\mathcal{P}_{\kappa}\lambda$, the associated Namba forcing $\mathrm{Nm}(\kappa,\lambda,F)$ is semiproper, then $\square(\mu,{<}\aleph_1)$ fails for all…
We deal with the problem of preserving various versions of completeness in (< kappa) --support iterations of forcing notions, generalizing the case ``S --complete proper is preserved by CS iterations for a stationary co-stationary S…
Let $\mathrm{cof}(\mu)=\mu$ and $\kappa$ be a supercompact cardinal with $\mu<\kappa$. Assume that there is an increasing and continuous sequence of cardinals $\langle\kappa_\xi\mid \xi<\mu\rangle$ with $\kappa_0:=\kappa$ and such that, for…
If cf(kappa) = kappa, kappa^+< cf(lambda) = \lambda, then there is a stationary subset S of {delta<lambda:cf(delta)=kappa} in I[lambda]. Moreover, we can find <C_delta :delta in S>, C_delta a club of lambda, otp(C_delta)=kappa, guessing…
The article addresses some open questions about the relations between the topological weak mixing property and the transitivity of the map $f\times f^2 \times...\times f^m$, where $f\colon X\ra X$ is a topological dynamical system on a…
We prove that it is consistent that Club Stationary Reflection and the Special Aronszajn Tree Property simultaneously hold on $\omega_2$, thereby contributing to the study of the tension between compactness and incompactness in set theory.…
After discussing the limitations inherent to all set-theoretic reflection principles akin to those studied by A. L\'evy et. al. in the 1960's, we introduce new principles of reflection based on the general notion of \emph{Structural…
We show that square(theta) implies that there is a first countable <theta-collectionwise Hausdorff space that is not weakly theta-collectionwise Hausdorff. We also show that in the model obtained by Levy collapsing a weakly compact…
We obtain a small ultrafilter number at $\aleph_{\omega_1}$. Moreover, we develop a version of the overlapping strong extender forcing with collapses which can keep the top cardinal $\kappa$ inaccessible. We apply this forcing to construct…
Coherent control of wave transmission and reflection is crucial for applications in communication, imaging, and sensing. However, many practical scenarios involve partially coherent waves rather than fully coherent ones. We present a…
We study several ideal-based constructions in the context of singular stationarity. By combining methods of strong ideals, supercompact embeddings, and Prikry-type posets, we obtain three consistency results concerning mutually stationary…
In this paper we show for the first time the phenomenon of negative reflection in a simple mechanical structure. The latter is a grating of fixed inclusions embedded in a linear elastic matrix. Numerical analyses for out-of-plane shear…
Statistical inference for non-stationary data is hindered by the failure of classical central limit theorems (CLTs), not least because there is no fixed Gaussian limit to converge to. To resolve this, we introduce relative weak convergence,…
If $X$ is a topological space and $\kappa$ is a cardinal then $\mathsf{BA}_\kappa (X)$ is the statement that for each pair $A, B \subseteq X$ of $\kappa$-dense subsets there is an autohomeomorphism $h:X \to X$ mapping $A$ to $B$. In…
We show relative to strong hypotheses that patterns of compact cardinals in the universe, where a compact cardinal is one which is either strongly compact or supercompact, can be virtually arbitrary. Specifically, we prove if V is a model…
