We construct examples of weighted algebras $L_p^w(G)$ with $1<p\le 2$ on uncountable free groups. For $p>2$ no weighted algebras exist on these groups. From the other side, we prove that an amenable group on which exist weighted algebras…
A. Tarski proved that the m-generated free algebra of $\mathrm{CA}_{\alpha}$, the class of cylindric algebras of dimension $\alpha$, contains exactly $2^m$ zero-dimensional atoms, when $m\ge 1$ is a finite cardinal and $\alpha$ is an…
We give another proof that for every lambda >= beth_omega for every large enough regular kappa < beth_omega we have lambda^{[kappa]}= lambda, dealing with sufficient conditions for replacing beth_omega by aleph_omega. In section 2 we show…
A characteristic result is that if 2^{aleph_0}< mu < mu^+< lambda = cf(lambda)< mu^{aleph_0}, then among the separable reduced p-groups of cardinality lambda which are (< lambda)-stable there is no universal one.
In this short note we show that if lambda>aleph_1 is regular and lambda is not the successor of a singular cardinal of cofinality aleph_0, and G is a lambda-free abelian group of size lambda, then there is a free group G' subseteq G of size…
We describe some (countably many) classes K^{n,e} of finite graphs and prove that if lambda^{aleph_0}= lambda then every lambda^+-chromatic graph of cardinal lambda^+ contains, for some n, e, all members of K^{n,e} as subgraphs. On the…
Non-forking is one of the most important notions in modern model theory capturing the idea of a generic extension of a type (which is a far-reaching generalization of the concept of a generic point of a variety). To a countable first-order…
We prove an analogue of Morley's categoricity theorem where cardinality is replaced by the recursion-theoretic notion of arithmetic degree. We say that a complete arithmetically definable theory $T$ is $D$-categorical if any two…
We prove the consistency of: for suitable strongly inaccessible cardinal lambda the dominating number, i.e. the cofinality of lambda^lambda is strictly bigger than cov(meagre_lambda), i.e. the minimal number of nowhere dense subsets of…
We construct a variety of inner models exhibiting features usually obtained by forcing over universes with large cardinals. For example, if there is a supercompact cardinal, then there is an inner model with a Laver indestructible…
An $\omega_1$-compact space is a space in which every closed discrete subspace is countable. We give various general conditions under which a locally compact, $\omega_1$-compact space is $\sigma$-countably compact, i.e., the union of…
We try to understand complete types over a somewhat saturated model of a complete first order theory which is dependent (previously called NIP), by "decomposition theorems for such types". Our thesis is that the picture of dependent theory…
We indicate a way of distinguishing between structures, for which, we call two structures distinguishable. Roughly, being distinguishable means that they differ in the number of realizations each gives for some formula. Being…
We prove the result in the title. We infer, that unlike cylindric algebras, there is a first order axiomatization of the class of completely representable polyadic algebras of infinite dimension, though the one we obtain is infinite; in…
Our aim was to generalize some theorems about the saturation of ultra-powers to reduced powers. Naturally, we deal via saturation for types consisting of atomic formulas. We succeed to generalize the theory of dense linear is maximal and so…
We show that the consistency of $\mathrm{ZF} + \mathrm{AD}_{\mathbb{R}} + ``\Theta$ is measurable$"$ implies the consistency of $\mathrm{ZF} +``\Theta$ is the least strongly regular cardinal and the least measurable cardinal$"$ + $``$all…
We show that the following two theories are equiconsistent: (T) ZFC, CH and "There is a dense ideal on the first uncountable cardinal such that if j is the generic embedding associated with it then its restriction on ordinals is independent…
As a consequence of identifying the principle described in the title, we prove that for any uncountable cardinal lambda, if there is a lambda-free Whitehead group of cardinality lambda which is not free, then there are many ``nice''…
For many classes of models, there are universal members in any cardinal $\lambda$ which "essentially satisfies GCH", i.e. $\lambda = 2^{< \lambda}$, in particular for the class of a complete first order $T$ (well, if at least $\lambda >…
We extend a transitive model V of ZFC + GCH cardinal preservingly to a model N of ZF + "GCH holds below Alef_omega" + "there is a surjection from the power set of Alef_omega onto lambda" where lambda is an arbitrarily high fixed cardinal in…
