We study the question of when a given countable ordinal $\alpha$ is $\Sigma^1_n$- or $\Pi^1_n$-reflecting in models which are neither $\mathsf{PD}$ models nor the constructible universe, focusing on generic extensions of $L$. We prove,…
section 2: We answer a question of Mekler Eklof on the closure operations of the incompactness spectrum. We answer a question of Foreman and Magidor on reflection of stationary subsets of S_{< aleph_2}(lambda) = {a subseteq lambda : |a| <…
We prove the consistency of ``CH + 2^{aleph_1} is arbitrarily large + 2^{aleph_1} not-> (omega_1 x omega)^2_2''. If fact, we can get 2^{aleph_1} not-> [omega_1 x omega]^2_{aleph_0}. In addition to this theorem, we give generalizations to…
We prove partial regularity of stationary solutions and minimizers $u$ from a set $\Omega\subset \mathbb R^n$ to a Riemannian manifold $N$, for the functional $\int_\Omega F(x,u,|\nabla u|^2) dx$. The integrand $F$ is convex and satisfies…
We deal with a conjectured dichotomy for compact Hausdorff spaces: each such space contains a non-trivial converging omega-sequence or a non-trivial converging omega_1-sequence. We establish that this dichotomy holds in a variety of models;…
We determine the intertwiners of a family of Onsager coideal subalgebras of the quantum affine algebra $U_p(A^{(1)}_{n-1})$ in the fundamental representations and $U_p(B^{(1)}_{n}), U_p(D^{(1)}_{n}), U_p(D^{(2)}_{n+1})$ in the spin…
We introduce three families of diagonal reflection principles for matrices of stationary sets of ordinals. We analyze both their relationships among themselves and their relationships with other known principles of simultaneous stationary…
We characterize sequences of numbers $(a_n)$ such that $\sum_{n\geq 1} a_n\Phi_n$ converges a.e. for any orthonormal system $(\Phi_n)$ in any $L_2$-space. In our criterion, we use the set $B =\{\sum_{m\geq n} |a_m|^2; n\geq 1\}$ and its…
For a field $\mathbb{F}$ and integers $d$ and $k$, a set of vectors of $\mathbb{F}^d$ is called $k$-nearly orthogonal if its members are non-self-orthogonal and every $k+1$ of them include an orthogonal pair. We prove that for every prime…
Using relativized ordinal analysis, we give a proof-theoretic characterization of the provably total set-recursive-from-$\omega$ functions of KPl and related theories.
We prove that if $G=(V,E)$ is an $\omega$-stable (respectively, superstable) graph with $\chi(G)>\aleph_0$ (respectively, $2^{\aleph_0}$) then $G$ contains all the finite subgraphs of the shift graph $\text{Sh}_n(\omega)$ for some $n$. We…
Rabern recently proved that any graph with omega >= (3/4)(Delta+1) contains a stable set meeting all maximum cliques. We strengthen this result, proving that such a stable set exists for any graph with omega > (2/3)(Delta+1). This is tight,…
We improve previous work on the consistency strength of mutually stationary sequences of sets concentrating on points with divergent cofinality building on previous work by Adolf, Cox and Welch. Specifically, we have greatly reduced our…
We prove that any affine ring $R$ over a field $k$ has full cosupport, i.e., the cosupport of $R$ is equal to ${\rm Spec}\, R$. Using this fact, we give a complete description of all terms in a minimal pure-injective resolution of $R$,…
Let $n$ be a large number. A subset $A$ of $Z_n$ is complete if $S_A = Z_n$, where $S_A$ is the collection of the subset sums of $A$. Olson proved that if $n$ is a prime and $|A|> 2n^{1/2} $, then $S_A$ is complete. We show that a similar…
We give a necessary and sufficient condition, in terms of a certain reflection principle, for every unconditionally closed subset of a group G to be algebraic. As a corollary, we prove that this is always the case when G is a direct product…
We show that, for every linear ordering of $[2]^n$, there is a large subcube on which the ordering is lexicographic. We use this to deduce that every long sequence contains a long monotone subsequence supported on an affine cube. More…
We show that the group of all holomorphic automorphisms of complex affine space $\mathbb C^n$, $n>1$, and several of its subgroups satisfy the parametric Oka property with approximation and with interpolation on discrete sets.
A group G that is not finitely generated can be written as the union of a chain of proper subgroups. The cofinality spectrum of G, written CF(S), is the set of regular cardinals lambda such that G can be expressed as the union of a chain of…
Let kappa be a regular uncountable cardinal and lambda >=kappa^+ . The principle of stationary reflection for P_kappa lambda has been successful in settling problems of infinite combinatorics in the case kappa=omega_1. For a greater kappa…
