We derive simplified formulas for analyzing the stability of stochastic parametrically forced linear systems. This extends the results in [T. Blass and L.A. Romero, SIAM J. Control Optim. 51(2):1099--1127, 2013] where, assuming the…
We give another bit of evidence that forcing axioms provide proper framework for rigidity of quotient structures, by improving the OCA lifting theorem proved by the author in late 20th century and greatly simplifying its proof. In the…
ZF is a well investigated impredicative constructive version of Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory. Using set terms, we axiomatize IZF with Replacement, which we call \izfr, along with its intensional counterpart \iizfr. We define a typed lambda…
The aim of this paper is to establish some metrical coincidence and common fixed point theorems with an arbitrary relation under an implicit contractive condition which is general enough to cover a multitude of well known contraction…
We show that the principle of entropy increase may be exactly founded on a few axioms valid not only for quantum and classical statistics, but also for a wide range of statistical processes.
Assuming the existence of a strong cardinal and a measurable cardinal above it, we construct a model of $ZFC$ in which for every singular cardinal $\delta$, $\delta$ is strong limit, $2^\delta=\delta^{+3}$ and the tree property at…
Using a definition of ASF sequences derived from the definition of asymptotic contractions of the final type of ACF, we give some new fixed points theorem for cyclic mappings and alternating mapping which extend results from T.Suzuki and…
We characterize those standard models M of ZFC which are embeddable, as the class of all standard sets, in a model of internal set theory IST. The necessary and sufficient condition is that 1) there is a wellordering < of M which does not…
We show that the forcing axiom for countably compact, $\omega_2$-Knaster, well-met posets is inconsistent. This is supplemental to an inconsistency result of Shelah and sets a new limit to the generalization of Martin's Axiom to the stage…
In this paper we will try to provide a solid form of intrinsic set theoretical optimism. In other words, we will try to vindicate G\"odel's views on phenomenology as a method for arriving at new axioms of ZFC in order to decide independent…
The principle of open class determinacy is preserved by pre-tame class forcing, and after such forcing, every new class well-order is isomorphic to a ground-model class well-order. Similarly, the principle of elementary transfinite…
We use the technique of "classical realizability" to build new models of ZF + DC in which R is not well ordered. This gives new relative consistency results, probably not obtainable by forcing. This gives also a new method to get programs…
This paper explores the consistency strength of The Proper Forcing Axiom ($\textsf{PFA}$) and the theory (T) which involves a variation of the Viale-Wei$\ss$ guessing hull principle. We show that (T) is consistent relative to a supercompact…
Models of how things spread often assume that transmission mechanisms are fixed over time. However, social contagions--the spread of ideas, beliefs, innovations--can lose or gain in momentum as they spread: ideas can get reinforced, beliefs…
We prove an iteration theorem which guarantees for a wide class of nice iterations of $\omega_1$-preserving forcings that $\omega_1$ is not collapse, at the price of needing large cardinals to burn as fuel. More precisely, we show that a…
In the former article "Formal mathematical systems including a structural induction principle" we have presented a unified theory for formal mathematical systems including recursive systems closely related to formal grammars, including the…
We introduce the strongly uplifting cardinals, which are equivalently characterized, we prove, as the superstrongly unfoldable cardinals and also as the almost hugely unfoldable cardinals, and we show that their existence is equiconsistent…
We introduce the idea of a coherent adequate set of models, which can be used as side conditions in forcing. As an application we define a forcing poset which adds a square sequence on $\omega_2$ using finite conditions.
Among the orbit patterns that force only eventually fixed trajectories, we completely describe the forcing relation, by answering the question: which orbit patterns force which others?
In many axiomatic set theories, G\"odel's constructible universe $L$ is known as an inner model, that is, a definable class satisfying the same axioms (and containing the same ordinals). This gives a trivial proof that adding the axiom $V =…
