For many classes of models, there are universal members in any cardinal $\lambda$ which "essentially satisfies GCH", i.e. $\lambda = 2^{< \lambda}$, in particular for the class of a complete first order $T$ (well, if at least $\lambda >…

We study general methods to build forking-like notions in the framework of tame abstract elementary classes (AECs) with amalgamation. We show that whenever such classes are categorical in a high-enough cardinal, they admit a good frame: a…

For $K$ an abstract elementary class with amalgamation and no maximal models, we show that categoricity in a high-enough cardinal implies structural properties such as the uniqueness of limit models and the existence of good frames. This…

Controllability properties are studied for control-affine systems depending on a parameter and with constrained control values. The uncontrolled systems in dimension two and three are subject to a homoclinic bifurcation. This generates two…

A forcing extension may create new isomorphisms between two models of a first order theory. Certain model theoretic constraints on the theory and other constraints on the forcing can prevent this pathology. A countable first order theory is…

If kappa is strongly compact, lambda > kappa is regular, then (2^{< lambda})^+ --> (lambda+eta)^2_theta holds for eta,theta<kappa.

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…

We isolate here a wide class of well founded orders called tame orders and show that each such order of cardinality at most $\kappa$ can be realized as the Mitchell order on a measurable cardinal $\kappa$, from a consistency assumption…

Let O be the ring of integers of a number field K. For an O-algebra R which is torsion free as an O-module we define what we mean by a Lambda_O-ring structure on R. We can determine whether a finite etale K-algebra E with Lambda_O-ring…

We introduce a new covering property, defined in terms of order types of sequences of open sets, rather than in terms of cardinalities of families. The most general form of this compactness notion depends on two ordinal parameters. In the…

For an arbitrary infinite cardinal $\kappa$, we define classes of coordinatewise $\kappa$-slender and tailwise $\kappa$-slender modules as well as related classes of $h\kappa$-modules and initiate a study of these classes.

We consider a perturbation of an ``integrable'' Hamiltonian and give an expression for the canonical or unitary transformation which ``simplifies'' this perturbed system. The problem is to invert a functional defined on the Lie- algebra of…

We address the study of controllability of a closed quantum system whose dynamical Lie algebra is generated by adjacency matrices of graphs. We characterize a large family of graphs that renders a system controllable. The key property is a…

Keisler proved that if $\theta$ is a strong limit cardinal and $\lambda$ is a singular cardinal, then the transfer relation $\theta\longrightarrow\lambda$ holds. In a previous paper, we studied initial elementary submodels of the…

In this paper, we investigate the controllability of a class of formation control systems. Given a directed graph, we assign an agent to each of its vertices and let the edges of the graph describe the information flow in the system. We…

The theme of the first two sections, is to prepare the framework of how from a ``complicated'' family of so called index models $I \in K_1$ we build many and/or complicated structures in a class $K_2$. The index models are…

Let $K$ be a compact group. For a symplectic quotient $M_{\lambda}$ of a compact Hamiltonian K\"ahler $K$-manifold, we show that the induced complex structure on $M_{\lambda}$ is locally invariant when the parameter $\lambda$ varies in…

The structure of automorphism groups of $\kappa$-existentially closed groups are studied by Kaya-Kuzucuo\u{g}lu in 2022. It was proved that Aut(G) is the union of subgroups of level preserving automorphisms and $|Aut(G)|=2^\kappa$ whenever…

Suppose lambda is a singular cardinal of uncountable cofinality kappa. For a model M of cardinality lambda, let No(M) denote the number of isomorphism types of models N of cardinality lambda which are L_{infty lambda}-equivalent to M. In…

Kullback-Leibler (KL) control enables efficient numerical methods for nonlinear optimal control problems. The crucial assumption of KL control is the full controllability of the transition distribution. However, this assumption is often…
