We give a partial answer to the following question of Dobrinen: For a given topological Ramsey space $\mathcal{R}$, are the notions of selective for $\mathcal{R}$ and Ramsey for $\mathcal{R}$ equivalent? Every topological Ramsey space…
Motivated by Tukey classification problems and building on work in \cite{Dobrinen/Todorcevic11}, we develop a new hierarchy of topological Ramsey spaces $\mathcal{R}_{\alpha}$, $\alpha<\omega_1$. These spaces form a natural hierarchy of…
Topological Ramsey spaces are spaces which support infinite dimensional Ramsey theory similarly to the Ellentuck space. Each topological Ramsey space is endowed with a partial ordering which can be modified to a $\sigma$-closed `almost…
We extend the hierarchy of finite-dimensional Ellentuck spaces to infinite dimensions. Using uniform barriers $B$ on $\omega$ as the prototype structures, we construct a class of continuum many topological Ramsey spaces $\mathcal{E}_B$…
Motivated by a Tukey classification problem we develop here a new topological Ramsey space $\mathcal{R}_1$ that in its complexity comes immediately after the classical is a natural Ellentuck space \cite{MR0349393}. Associated with…
Selective ultrafilters are characterized by many equivalent properties, in particular the Ramsey property that every finite colouring of unordered pairs of integers has a homogeneous set in U, and the equivalent property that every function…
Given a topological Ramsey space $(\mathcal R,\leq, r)$, we extend the notion of semiselective coideal to sets $\mathcal H\subseteq\mathcal R$ and study conditions for $\mathcal H$ that will enable us to make the structure $(\mathcal…
We present several combinatorial properties of semiselective ideals on the set of natural numbers. The continuum hypothesis implies that the complement of every selective ideal contains a selective ultrafilter, however for semiselective…
We isolate a new class of ultrafilters on N, called "quasi-selective" because they are intermediate between selective ultrafilters and P-points. (Under the Continuum Hypothesis these three classes are distinct.) The existence of…
Let $U$ be an absolute ultrafilter on the set of non-negative integers $\mathbb{N}$. For any sequence $x=(x_n)_{n\geq 0}$ of real numbers, let $U(x)$ denote the topological filter consisting of the open sets $W$ of $\mathbb{R}$ with $\{n…
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…
Associated to each ultrafilter $\mathcal{U}$ on $\omega$ and each map $p:\omega\rightarrow \omega$ is a Dedekind cut in the ultrapower $\omega^{\omega}/p( \mathcal{U})$. Blass has characterized, under CH, the cuts obtainable when…
Superfilters are generalized ultrafilters, which capture the underlying concept in Ramsey theoretic theorems such as van der Waerden's Theorem. We establish several properties of superfilters, which generalize both Ramsey's Theorem and its…
In our previous paper [9], we have introduced topological nearly entropy, Ent_N (f) by restricting X into a class of nearly compact spaces. In the present paper, some additional properties of this notion are studied. Furthermore, we…
In [1] the authors showed some basic properties of a pre-order that arose in combinatorial number theory, namely the finite embeddability between sets of natural numbers, and they presented its generalization to ultrafilters, which is…
We compare the strength of polychromatic and monochromatic Ramsey theory in several set-theoretic domains. We show that the rainbow Ramsey theorem does not follow from ZF, nor does the rainbow Ramsey theorem imply Ramsey's theorem over ZF.…
The generic ultrafilter $\mathcal{G}_2$ forced by $\mathcal{P}(\omega\times\omega)/($Fin$\otimes$Fin) was recently proved to be neither maximum nor minimum in the Tukey order of ultrafilters (in a recent paper of Blass, Dobrinen, and…
The main result provide a common generalization for Ramsey-type theorems concerning finite colorings of edge sets of complete graphs with vertices in infinite semigroups. We capture the essence of theorems proved in different fields: for…
We introduce Gowers--Matet forcing with a finite sequence of pairwise non-isomorphic Ramsey ultrafilters over $\omega$, and with this forcing we settle the long-standing problem of the spectrum of numbers near-coherence classes. We prove…
This work is concerned with an axiom introduced by Todorc\v{e}vi\'{c} in \cite{stevo} that constitutes a Ramsey-like statement regarding the topology of the reals. Our aim is to explain the axiom in detail, give some interesting…
