Local actions (actions of a vertex stabiliser on the neighbours of that vertex) have become an important approach to group actions on trees since J. Tits' introduction in 1970 of the independence property (P) and especially since a 2000…

We prove a structure result on proper extensions of two-sided restriction semigroups in terms of partial actions, generalizing respective results for monoids and for inverse semigroups and upgrading the latter. We introduce and study…

Given a Borel class of trees, we show that there is a tree in that class whose Scott sentence is not too much more complicated than the definition of the class. In particular, if the class is definable by a $\Pi_\alpha$ sentence, then there…

Building on previous work of [BPS] we investigate $\sigma$-closed partial orders of size continuum. We provide both an internal and external characterization of such partial orders by showing that (1) every $\sigma$-closed partial order of…

We establish basic properties of a sheaf of graded algebras canonically associated to every relative affine scheme $f : X \rightarrow S$ endowed with an action of the additive group scheme $\mathbb{G}_{ a,S}$ over a base scheme or algebraic…

We introduce forest diagrams to represent elements of Thompson's group F. These diagrams relate to a certain action of F on the real line in the same way that tree diagrams relate to the standard action of F on the unit interval. Using…

In this work, we study good semigroups of $\mathbb{N}^n$ introducing the definition of length and genus for these objects. We show how to count the local good semigroup with a fixed genus. Furthermore, we study the relationships of these…

We prove the following indistinguishability theorem for $k$-tuples of trees in the uniform spanning forest of $\mathbb{Z}^d$: Suppose that $\mathscr{A}$ is a property of a $k$-tuple of components that is stable under finite modifications of…

Let $R$ be a domain and $B=R[x_1^{\pm1},\ldots,x_n^{\pm1}]$ the Laurent polynomial ring over $R$. In this paper we study pre-factorially closed (pfc) and quasi-factorially closed (qfc) $R$-subalgebras of $B$, which generalize the notion of…

We introduce a new category called Quasi-Nash, unifying Nash manifolds and algebraic varieties. We define Schwartz functions, tempered functions and tempered distributions in this category. We show that properties that hold on affine…

It is known that for every $\alpha \geq 1$ there is a planar triangulation in which every ball of radius $r$ has size $\Theta(r^\alpha)$. We prove that for $\alpha <2$ every such triangulation is quasi-isometric to a tree. The result…

Starting with infinitely many supercompact cardinals, we show that the tree property at every cardinal $\aleph_n$, $1 < n <\omega$, is consistent with an arbitrary continuum function below $\aleph_\omega$ which satisfies $2^{\aleph_n} >…

Under suitable conditions, with respect to some property on a random iterated function system(RIFS), it is shown how the system satisfies in this property almost surely.

We introduce the notion of mixed subtree quasi-isometries, which are self quasi-isometries of regular trees built in a specific inductive way. We then show that any self quasi-isometry of a regular tree is at bounded distance from a…

An order-theoretic forest is a countable partial order such that the set of elements larger than any element is linearly ordered. It is an order-theoretic tree if any two elements have an upper-bound. The order type of a branch can be any…

It is consistent that there exists a Souslin tree $T$ such that after forcing with it, $T$ becomes an almost Souslin Kurepa tree. This answers a question of Zakrzewski.

We investigate quiver representations over $\mathbb{F}_1$. Coefficient quivers are combinatorial gadgets equivalent to $\mathbb{F}_1$-representations of quivers. We focus on the case when the quiver $Q$ is a pseudotree. For such quivers, we…

Let $A$ be a simple, exact, separable, unital $C^*$-algebra and let $\alpha \colon G \rightarrow Aut(A)$ be an action of a finite group $G$ with the weak tracial Rokhlin property. We show that every trace on $A \rtimes_{\alpha} G$ is…

We deal with the existence of universal members in a given cardinality for several classes. First we deal with classes of Abelian groups, specifically with the existence of universal members in cardinalities which are strong limit singular…

We define a global rank for partial types based in a generalization of Shelah trees. We prove an equivalence with the depth of a localized version of the constructions known as dividing sequence and dividing chain. This rank characterizes…
