Ultrafunctions are a particular class of functions defined on a Non Archimedean field R^{*}\supset R. They have been introduced and studied in some previous works ([1],[2],[3]). In this paper we introduce a modified notion of ultrafunction…

We investigate whether the ultrafilter number function $\kappa \mapsto \mathfrak{u}(\kappa)$ on the cardinals is monotone, that is, whether $\mathfrak{u}(\lambda) \le \mathfrak{u}(\kappa)$ holds for all cardinals $\lambda < \kappa$ or not.…

Some new results on metric ultraproducts of finite simple groups are presented. Suppose that G is such a group, defined in terms of a non-principal ultrafilter {\omega} on N and a sequence {(G_i)_{i \in N}} of finite simple groups, and that…

Using wreath products, we construct a finitely generated pro-p group G with infinite normal Hausdorff spectrum with respect to the p-power series. More precisely, we show that this normal Hausdorff spectrum contains an infinite interval;…

We introduce a natural generalization of the definition of a symmetric Hopf algebroid, internal to any symmetric monoidal category with coequalizers that commute with the monoidal product. Motivation for this is the study of Heisenberg…

In literature, many important combinatorial properties of subsets of N have been studied both with nonstandard techniques and from the point of view of N. In this thesis we mix these two different approaches in a technique that, at the same…

In a previous paper the second author introduced a compact topology on the space of closed ideals of a unital Banach algebra A. If A is separable then this topology is either metrizable or else neither Hausdorff nor first countable. Here it…

We show that if $\mathfrak{c} = \aleph_2$ then all covering numbers of Hausdorff measures $\operatorname{cov}(\mathcal{N}^s(\mathbb{R}^d))$ ($0 < s < d, d \in \omega$) are equal and all uniformity numbers…

We examine a parameterized family of functions F_a, all of which are continuous and some of which are nowhere or almost nowhere differentiable, we explore the behavior of F'_a and F"_a almost everywhere for different values of a, focusing…

We give a complete description of the possible Hausdorff dimensions of escaping sets for meromorphic functions with a finite number of singular values. More precisely, for any given $d\in [0,2]$ we show that there exists such a meromorphic…

This note answers the following question: Is it consistent that for an arbitrary tall summable ideal I_g there exists an I_g-ultrafilter which is not rapid? We show that assuming Martin's Axiom for \sigma-centered posets such ultrafilters…

In the hyperreals constructed using a free ultrafilter on R, where [f] is the hyperreal represented by f:R->R, it is tempting to define a derivative operator by [f]'=[f'], but unfortunately this is not generally well-defined. We show that…

This short note contains the proofs of two small but somewhat surprising results about ultrafilters on $\mathbb{N}$: 1. strongly summable ultrafilters are rapid, 2. every rapid ultrafilter induces a closed left ideal of rapid ultrafilters.…

We characterize ultrafilter convergence and ultrafilter compactness in linearly ordered and generalized ordered topological spaces. In such spaces, and for every ultrafilter $D$, the notions of $D$-compactness and of $D$-pseudocompactness…

We are interested in situations where the Hausdorff measure and Hausdorff content of a set are equal in the critical dimension. Our main result shows that this equality holds for any subset of a self-similar set corresponding to a…

Recently the first example of a family of pro-$p$ groups, for $p$ a prime, with full normal Hausdorff spectrum was constructed. In this paper we further investigate this family by computing their finitely generated Hausdorff spectrum with…

We obtain a forcing construction that shows that it is consistent that the torsion-free Abelian group $\mathbb{Q}^{(\lambda)}$ admits a Hausdorff group topology which is also $\mathcal{U}$-compact and contains no non-trivial convergent…

It is shown that the consistency strength of ZF + DC + "the closed unbounded ultrafilter on omega_1 is an ultrafilter" is exactly ZFC + one measurable cardinal.

We study ultraproducts of finite residue rings $\underset{n\in\mathbb{N}}{\prod}\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z} \diagup \mathcal{U} $ where $\mathcal{U}$ is a non-principal ultrafilter. We find sufficient conditions of the ultrafilter $\mathcal{U}$…

In this paper, we give new constructions of Urysohn universal ultrametric spaces. We first characterize a Urysohn universal ultrametric subspace of the space of all continuous functions whose images contain the zero, from a zero-dimensional…
