Let $M$ be a smooth compact manifold (maybe with boundary, maybe disconnected) of any dimension $d \ge 1$. We consider the set of $C^1$ maps $f:M\to M$ which have no absolutely continuous (with respect to Lebesgue) invariant probability…
We construct a continuum sized family $\{G_x\}_{x\in\{0,1\}^{\mathbb N}}$ of pairwise non-measure equivalent countable groups which have property (T) (hence are finitely generated), have zero $\ell^2$-Betti numbers of all orders, and are…
In the literature, various types of points and meager sets whose complements are connected have been studied, such as colocally connected points, non-weak cut points/sets, non-block points/sets, shore points/sets, etc. We extend that study,…
We provide new techniques to construct sets of reals without perfect subsets and with the Hurewicz or Menger covering properties. In particular, we show that if the Continuum Hypothesis holds, then there are such sets which can be mapped…
We consider non-commutative deformations of sheaves on algebraic varieties. We develop some tools to determine parameter algebras of versal non-commutative deformations for partial simple collections and the structure sheaves of smooth…
A Steinhaus set $S \subseteq \RR^d$ for a set $A \subseteq \RR^d$ is a set such that $S$ has exactly one point in common with $\tau A$, for every rigid motion $\tau$ of $\RR^d$. We show here that if $A$ is a finite set of at least two…
In each Menger manifold $M$ we construct: (i) a closed nowhere dense subset $M_0$ which is homeomorphic to $M$ and is universal nowhere dense in the sense that for each nowhere dense set $A\subset M$ there is a homeomorphism $h$ of $M$ such…
We show that certain families of sets in $\mathbb{R}^2$ (or $\mathbb{R}^n$) which are neither definable nor have bounded VC-dimension are nonetheless uniformly approximately definable in the real field, an o-minimal structure.
Starting from a model with a Laver-indestructible supercompact cardinal $\kappa$, we construct a model of $ZF+DC_{\kappa}$ where there are no $\kappa$-mad families.
We prove that if $\vec{R}$ is a computable sequence of subsets of $\omega$ which admits no computable cohesive set, then no 3-generic computes any $\vec{R}$-cohesive set; and there exists a Martin-L\"{o}f random which computes no…
For every $0<s\leq 1$ we construct $s$-dimensional Salem measures in the unit interval that do not admit any Fourier frame. Our examples are generic for each $s$, including all existing types of Salem measures in the literature: random…
We prove that it is consistent (relative to a Mahlo cardinal) that all projective sets of reals are Lebesgue measurable, but there is a $\Delta^1_3$ set without the Baire property. The complexity of the set which provides a counterexample…
In this oaper, we prove some fixed point theorems in metric vector spaces, in which the continuity is not required for the considered mappings to satisfy. We provide some concrete examples to demonstrate these theorems. We also give some…
The article contains a construction of a self-similar dendryte which cannot be the attractor of any self-similar zipper.
No physical measurement can be performed with infinite precision. This leaves a loophole in the standard no-go arguments against non-contextual hidden variables. All such arguments rely on choosing special sets of quantum-mechanical…
The empty set of course contains no computable point. On the other hand, surprising results due to Zaslavskii, Tseitin, Kreisel, and Lacombe assert the existence of NON-empty co-r.e. closed sets devoid of computable points: sets which are…
For random piecewise linear systems T of the interval that are expanding on average we construct explicitly the density functions of absolutely continuous T-invariant measures. In case the random system uses only expanding maps our…
We construct skew corner-free sets in $[n]^2$ of size $n^{5/4}$, thereby disproving a conjecture of Kevin Pratt. We also show that any skew corner-free set in $\mathbb{F}_{q}^{n} \times \mathbb{F}_{q}^{n}$ must have size at most…
The projector onto gauge invariant physical states was recently constructed for arbitrary constrained systems. This approach, which does not require gauge fixing nor any additional degrees of freedom beyond the original ones---two…
Addressing a question of Paul Larson we prove the following statement. If Chang's conjecture fails, Martin's axiom holds and the continuum is greater than $\aleph_2$, there are no weakly Laver ideals over $\aleph_1$. We also prove that…
