We show that for a Suslin ccc forcing notion $\mathbb Q$ adding a Hechler real, ``$\text{ZF}+\text{DC}_{\omega_1}+$all sets of reals are $I_{\mathbb Q,\aleph_0}$-measurable'' implies the existence of an inner model with a measurable…

We prove some results on the Wadge order on the space of sets of natural numbers endowed with Scott topology, and more generally, on omega-continuous domains. Using alternating decreasing chains we characterize the property of Wadge…

In the absence of the Axiom of Choice, necessary and sufficient conditions for a locally compact Hausdorff space to have all non-empty second-countable compact Hausdorff spaces as remainders are given in $\mathbf{ZF}$. Among other…

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…

We explore the ground-state phase diagram of the $S\!=\!1/2$ two-leg ladder with different isotropic leg interactions and uniform anisotropic rung ones, which is described by the Hamiltonian ${\cal H}=J_{{\rm l},a}…

We study the class of selfless C*-probability spaces introduced by Robert. It is known that a selfless tracial algebra has strict comparison and a unique trace. We prove that for separable tracial C*-algebras, selflessness is equivalent to…

In this note, continuous transitive maps $f$ on the interval $I$ are re-addressed, where $I$ denotes one of the intervals: $(-\infty, \infty)$, $(-\infty, a]$, $[b, \infty)$, $[a, b]$, where $a < b$ are real numbers. Such maps must have a…

We study the dynamics of the one-dimensional complex Ginzburg Landau equation (CGLE) in the regime where holes and defects organize themselves into composite superstructures which we call zigzags. Extensive numerical simulations of the CGLE…

The three gap theorem, also known as the Steinhaus conjecture or three distance theorem, states that the gaps in the fractional parts of $\alpha,2\alpha,\ldots, N\alpha$ take at most three distinct values. Motivated by a question of…

For a finite non-empty set $X$, let $\mathfrak{P}(X)$ denote the set of all posets with carrier $X$, ordered by inclusion of their partial order relations. We investigate properties of posets $P \in \mathfrak{P}(X)$ for which no lower cover…

A poset can be regarded as a category in which there is at most one morphism between objects, and such that at most one of Hom(c,c') and Hom(c',c) is nonempty for distinct objects c,c'. If we keep in place the latter axiom but allow for…

We demonstrate that stacking topologically trivial layers, under enforced symmetry restrictions, yields emergent topological phases with protected boundary states. Remarkably, the number of layers itself acts as a topological switch,…

The Shastry-Sutherland model is a two-dimensional frustrated spin model whose ground state is a spin gap state. We study this model doped with one and two holes on a 32-site lattice using exact diagonalization. When t'>0, we find that the…

We have studied the three-band Peierls-Hubbard model describing the Cu-O layers in high-T$_c$ superconductors by using Lanczos diagonalization and assuming infinite mass for the ions. When the system is doped with one hole, and when the…

In a field-theoretical context, we consider the Euclidean $(\phi^4+\phi^6)_D$ model compactified in one of the spatial dimensions. We are able to determine the dependence of the transition temperature ($T_{c}$)for a system described by this…

We discuss scalar conformal field theories (CFTs) that can be realized in structural phase transitions. The Landau condition and Lifshitz condition are reviewed, which are necessary conditions for a structural phase transition to be second…

Motivated by algebraic quantum field theory and our previous work we study properties of inductive systems of \ $C^*$-algebras over arbitrary partially ordered sets. A partially ordered set can be represented as the union of the family of…

Let $X$ be a compact Hausdorff space, with uniformity $\mathscr{U}$, and let $f \colon X \to X$ be a continuous function. For $D \in \mathscr{U}$, a $D$-pseudo-orbit is a sequence $(x_i)$ for which $(f(x_i),x_{i+1}) \in D$ for all indices…

Let ${\mathcal P}\subset{\mathbb Z}^2$ be a convex polygon with each vertex in it labeled by an element from a finite set and such that the labeling of each vertex $v\in {\mathcal P}$ is uniquely determined by the labeling of all other…

We analyse a model of a one-dimensional electron gas interacting with an antiferromagnetic Heisenberg spin-1/2 chain via the spin exchange interactions. Using a solution at a special limit, we characterize the gapless modes of the spin gap…
