The Kalikow problem for a pair (lambda, kappa) of cardinal numbers, lambda > kappa (in particular kappa =2) is whether we can map the family of omega --sequences from lambda to the family of omega --sequences from kappa in a very continuous…

We use topological consequences of PFA, MA$_{\omega_1}$(S)[S] and PFA(S)[S] proved by other authors to show that normal first countable linearly H-closed spaces with various additionals properties are compact in these models.

For a new class of topological vector spaces, namely $\kappa $-normed spaces, and associated quasisemilinear topological preordered space is defined and investigated. This structure arise naturally from the consideration of a $\kappa…

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…

We consider special subclasses of the class of Lindel\"of Sigma-spaces obtained by imposing restrictions on the weight of the elements of compact covers that admit countable networks: A space $X$ is in the class $L\Sigma(\leq\kappa)$ if it…

We consider the cardinal sequences of compact scattered spaces in models where CH is false. We describe a number of models where the continuum is aleph_2 in which no such space can have aleph_2 countable levels.

Let $\mathbb{P}_{\kappa}(n)$ be the probability that $n$ points $z_1,\ldots,z_n$ picked uniformly and independently in $\mathfrak{C}_\kappa$, a regular $\kappa$-gon with area $1$, are in convex position, that is, form the vertex set of a…

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…

We prove that each metrizable space (of cardinality less or equal to continuum) has a (first countable) uniform Eberlein compactification and each scattered metrizable space has a scattered hereditarily paracompact compactification. Each…

We develop the theory of layered posets, and use the notion of layering to prove a new iteration theorem (Theorem 6): if $\kappa$ is weakly compact then any universal Kunen iteration of $\kappa$-cc posets (each possibly of size $\kappa$) is…

We continue our investigation of cardinal sequences associated with locally Lindelof, scattered, Hausdorff P-spaces (abbreviated as LLSP spaces). We outline a method for constructing LLSP spaces from cone systems and partial orders with…

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…

We initiate a study of topological orthoalgebras (TOAs), concentrating on the compact case. Examples of TOAs include topological orthomodular lattices, and also the projection lattice of a Hilbert space. As the latter example illustrates, a…

We study $\kappa$-maximal cofinitary groups for $\kappa$ regular uncountable, $\kappa = \kappa^{<\kappa}$. Revisiting earlier work of Kastermans and building upon a recently obtained higher analogue of Bell's theorem, we show that: 1. Any…

In this paper, we introduce the foundation of a fractal topological space constructed via a family of nested topological spaces endowed with subspace topologies, where the number of topological spaces involved in this family is related to…

In a recent preprint, Garti and Shelah state that the techniques of a paper of Dzamonja and Shelah can be used to force u_kappa to be kappa^+ for supercompact kappa with 2^kappa arbitrarily large. In this expository article we spell out the…

We develop a unified framework for iterated symmetric extensions with countable support and, more generally, with $<\kappa$-support. Set-length iterations are treated uniformly, and when the iteration template is first-order definable over…

We prove that the existence of a complete metric space of cardinality at most $2^{\kappa}$ admitting Kuratowski partition is a consequence of $\kappa$ being the smallest real-valued measurable cardinal not greater than $ 2^{\aleph_0}$.

We consider some distinguished classes of elements of a multiplicative lattice endowed with coarse lower topologies, and call them lower spaces. The primary objective of this paper is to study the topological properties of these lower…

Given two infinite cardinals $\kappa$ and $\lambda$, we introduce and study the notion of a $\kappa$-barely independent family over $\lambda.$ We provide some conditions under which these types of families exist. In particular, we relate…
