In this paper, we are interested in parallels to the classical notions of special subsets in $\R$ defined in the generalized Cantor and Baire spaces ($2^\kappa$ and $\kappa^\kappa$). We consider generalizations of the well-known classes of…
We obtain an array of consistency results concerning trees and stationary reflection at double successors of regular cardinals $\kappa$, updating some classical constructions in the process. This includes models of…
We study the general problem of the behaviour of the continuum function in the presence of non-supercompact strongly compact cardinals.
This article is devoted to two different generalizations of projective Boolean algebras: openly generated Boolean algebras and tightly sigma-filtered Boolean algebras. We show that for every uncountable regular cardinal kappa there are…
The subalgebra of the tautological ring of the moduli of curves of compact type generated by the kappa classes is studied. Relations, constructed via the virtual geometry of the moduli of stable maps, are used to prove universality results…
In the paper, we study variation formulas for transversally harmonic maps and bi-harmonic maps, respectively. We also study the transversal Jacobi field along a map and give several relations with infinitesimal automorphisms.
We introduce the notion of weakly extendible cardinals and show that these cardinals are characterized in terms of weak compactness of second order logic. The consistency strength and largeness of weakly extendible cardinals are located…
We develop a $\kappa$-symmetry calculus for the d=2 and d=3, N=2 massive superparticles, which enables us to construct higher order $\kappa$-invariant actions. The method relies on a reformulation of these models as supersymmetric sigma…
Suppose that kappa is a singular cardinal of cofinality omega and GCH holds. Assume that for every n<omega the set of alphas with o(alpha)>= alpha^{+n} is unbounded in kappa.Then there is a cardinal preserving extension satisfying…
Assume ZFC. Let $\kappa$ be a cardinal. A ${<\kappa}$-ground is a transitive proper class $W$ modelling ZFC and such that $V$ is a generic extension of $W$ via a forcing $\mathbb{P}\in W$ of cardinality ${<\kappa}$. The $\kappa$-mantle is…
A simplified construction is presented for Komj\'ath's result that for every uncountable cardinal $\kappa$, there are $2^\kappa$ graphs of size $\kappa$ none of them being a minor of another.
In [Bon20], model theoretic characterizations of several established large cardinal notions were given. We continue this work, by establishing such characterizations for Woodin cardinals (and variants), various virtual large cardinals, and…
A new class of alternating convolutions concerning binomial coefficients and Catalan numbers are evaluated in closed forms.
We show that there are locally compact spaces that can be condensed onto separable spaces but not onto compact separable spaces. We also show that for every cardinal $\kappa$ there is a locally compact topological group of cardinality…
We use the core model for sequences of measures to prove a new lower bound for the consistency strength of the failure of the SCH: THEOREM (i) If there is a singular strong limit cardinal $\kappa$ such that $2^\kappa > kappa^+$ then there…
A duality of $\kappa$-normed topological vector spaces is defined and investigated. For such spaces the analog of the Mackey-Arens theorem is proved. There are investigated cases, when $\kappa$-normability of a topological vector space…
We present the theory of higher order invariants and higher order automorphic forms in the simplest case, that of a compact quotient. In this case many things simplify and we are thus able to prove a more precise structure theorem than in…
We use classical invariant theory to solve the biholomorphic equivalence problem for two families of plane curve singularities previously considered in the literature. Our calculations motivate an intriguing conjecture that proposes a way…
Dealing with the cardinal invariants p and t of the continuum we prove that m=p=aleph_2 -> t = aleph_1. In other words if MA_{aleph_1} (or a weak version of this) then (of course aleph_2 <= p <= t and) p = aleph_2 -> p = t . This is based…
In this paper we propose a theory of contact invariants and open string invariants, which are generalizations of the relative invariants. We introduce two moduli spaces $\bar{\mathcal{M}}_{A}(M^{+},C,g,m+\nu,{\bf y},{\bf…
