Does the class of linear orders have (one of the variants of) the so called (lambda, kappa)-limit model? It is necessarily unique, and naturally assuming some instances of G.C.H. we get some positive, i.e. existence results. More generally,…
We prove that large cardinals need not generally exhibit their large cardinal nature in HOD. For example, a supercompact cardinal $\kappa$ need not be weakly compact in HOD, and there can be a proper class of supercompact cardinals in $V$,…
Let $\kappa$ be an infinite cardinal. A topological space $X$ is $\kappa$-bounded if the closure of any subset of cardinality $\le\kappa$ in $X$ is compact. We discuss the problem of embeddability of topological spaces into Hausdorff…
We are proving the following: (1) If $\kap$ is a weakly inaccessible then $NS_\kap$ is not $\kap^+$-saturated. (2) If $\kap$ is a weakly inaccessible and $\tet <\kap$ is regular then $NS^\tet_\kap$ is not $\kap^+$-saturated. (3) If $\kap$…
We study and classify topologically invariant sigma-ideals with an analytic base on Euclidean spaces and evaluate the cardinal characteristics of such ideals.
We improve Galvin's Theorem for ultrafilters which are p-point limits of p-points. This implies that in all the canonical inner models up to a superstrong cardinal, every $\kappa$-complete ultrafilter over a measurable cardinal $\kappa$…
We analyze the intermediate models of the strongly compact Prikry forcing. We exhibit a simple combinatorial property which, for a given supercompact cardinal $\kappa$, characterize the projections of all projections of the strongly compact…
We use a natural forcing to construct a left-separated topology on an arbitrary cardinal kappa. The resulting left-separated space X_kappa is also 0-dimensional T_2, hereditarily Lindelof, and countably tight. Moreover if kappa is regular…
For a regular uncountable cardinal kappa, we discuss the order relationship between the unbounding and dominating numbers on kappa and cardinal invariants of the higher meager ideal M_kappa. In particular, we obtain a complete…
We develop a version of Cichon's diagram for cardinal invariants on the generalized Cantor space 2^kappa or the generalized Baire space kappa^kappa where kappa is an uncountable regular cardinal. For strongly inaccessible kappa, many of the…
We prove under $V=L$ that the inclusion modulo the non-stationary ideal is a $\Sigma_1^1$-complete quasi-order in the generalized Borel-reducibility hierarchy ($\kappa>\omega$). This improvement to known results in $L$ has many new…
Let $\lambda$ be an infinite cardinal number and let $\ell_\infty^c(\lambda)$ denote the subspace of $\ell_\infty(\lambda)$ consisting of all functions that assume at most countably many non-zero values. We classify all infinite dimensional…
We answer a variant of a question of Rodl and Voigt by showing that, for a given infinite cardinal lambda, there is a graph G of cardinality kappa =(2^lambda)^+ such that for any colouring of the edges of G with lambda colours, there is an…
We use Shelah's theory of possible cofinalities in order to solve a problem about ultrafilters. THEOREM. Suppose that $ \lambda $ is a singular cardinal, $ \lambda ' < \lambda $, and the ultrafilter $D$ is $ \kappa $-decomposable for all…
Let $\mathrm{cof}(\mu)=\mu$ and $\kappa$ be a supercompact cardinal with $\mu<\kappa$. Assume that there is an increasing and continuous sequence of cardinals $\langle\kappa_\xi\mid \xi<\mu\rangle$ with $\kappa_0:=\kappa$ and such that, for…
We show a number of undecidable assertions concerning countably compact spaces hold under PFA(S)[S]. We also show the consistency without large cardinals of "every locally compact, perfectly normal space is paracompact".
It is well-known that every non-isolated point in a compact Hausdorff space is the accumulation point of a discrete subset. Answering a question raised by Z. Szentmiklossy and the first author, we show that this statement fails for…
We study feebly compact shift-continuous $T_1$-topologies on the symmetric inverse semigroup $\mathscr{I}_\lambda^n$ of finite transformations of the rank $\leqslant n$. For any positive integer $n\geqslant2$ and any infinite cardinal…
For a topological space $X$ its reflection in a class $\mathsf T$ of topological spaces is a pair $(\mathsf T X,i_X)$ consisting of a space $\mathsf T X\in\mathsf T$ and continuous map $i_X:X\to \mathsf T X$ such that for any continuous map…
All spaces are assumed to be Tychonoff. Given a realcompact space $X$, we denote by $\mathsf{Exp}(X)$ the smallest infinite cardinal $\kappa$ such that $X$ is homeomorphic to a closed subspace of $\mathbb{R}^\kappa$. Our main result shows…
