Let k be a definable L-cardinal. Then there is a set of reals X, class-generic over L, such that L(X) and L have the same cardinals, X has size k in L(X) and some pi-1-2 formula defines X in all set-generic extensions of L(X). Two…
For n>1 and -1<p<1, we prove that if q is close to n and the qth Lp dual curvature is Holder close to be the constant one function, then this "near isotropic" qth Lp dual Minkowski problem on the (n-1)-dimensional sphere has a unique…
Necessary and sufficient conditions are given for the existence of solutions to the discrete Lp Minkowski problem for the critical case where 0 < p < 1.
We isolate a new large cardinal concept, "remarkability." Consistencywise, remarkable cardinals are between ineffable and omega-Erdos cardinals. They are characterized by the existence of "0^sharp-like" embeddings; however, they relativize…
Solvability and regularity of the solution of the Dirichlet problem for the Prandtl equation $$ {u(x)\over p(x)}- {1\over 2\pi}\int_{-1}^1 {u'(t) \over t-x} \,dt = f(x) $$ is studied. It is assumed that $p(x)$ is a positive function on…
Using an invariant modification of Jensen's "minimal $\varPi^1_2$ singleton" forcing, we define a model of ZFC, in which, for a given $n\ge2$, there exists a lightface $\varPi^1_n$ unordered pair of non-OD (hence, OD-indiscernible)…
We prove that there are infinitely many solutions of $$ |\lambda_0+\lambda_1p+\lambda_2P_r|<p^{-\tau}, $$ where $r=3,$ $\tau=\frac1{118}$, and $\lambda_0$ is an arbitrary real number and $\lambda_1,\lambda_2\in\BR$ with $\lambda_2\neq0$ and…
If L is an order polynomially complete lattice, (that is: every monotone function from L^n to L is induced by a lattice-theoretic polynomial) then the cardinality of L is a strongly inaccessible cardinal. In particular, the existence of…
We derive explicit ground state solutions for several equations with the $p$-Laplacian in $R^n$, including (here $\varphi (z)=z|z|^{p-2}$, with $p>1$) \[ \varphi \left(u'(r)\right)' +\frac{n-1}{r} \varphi \left(u'(r)\right)+u^M+u^Q=0 \,. \]…
Undecidability of various properties of first order term rewriting systems is well-known. An undecidable property can be classified by the complexity of the formula defining it. This gives rise to a hierarchy of distinct levels of…
We exposit two previously unpublished theorems of Leo Harrington. The first theorem says that there exist arithmetical singletons which are arithmetically incomparable. The second theorem says that there exists a ranked point which is not…
Recently it has been proved that, assuming that there is an almost disjoint family of cardinality (2^{\mathfrak c}) in (\mathfrak c) (which is assured, for instance, by either Martin's Axiom, or CH, or even $2^{<\mathfrak c=\mathfrak c$})…
The uniqueness of the $L_p$-Minkowski problem has been a long standing problem in convex geometry. In the groundbreaking paper by Brendle-Choi-Daskalopoulos (Acta Math, {\bf219}, 2017), a full uniqueness result was shown for the subcritical…
We consider the average-case complexity of some otherwise undecidable or open Diophantine problems. More precisely, we show that the following two problems can be solved in the complexity class PSPACE: (I) Given polynomials f_1,...,f_m in…
We give a simple proof of a fairly flexible comparison theorem for equations of the type $-(p(u'+su))'+rp(u'+su)+qu=0$ on a finite interval where $1/p$, $r$, $s$, and $q$ are real and integrable. Flexibility is provided by two functions…
Let kappa be an uncountable regular cardinal. Call an equivalence relation on functions from kappa into 2 Sigma_1^1-definable over H(kappa) if there is a first order sentence F and a parameter R subseteq H(kappa) such that functions…
The singularly perturbed Riccati equation is the first-order nonlinear ODE $\hbar \partial_x f = af^2 + bf + c$ in the complex domain where $\hbar$ is a small complex parameter. We prove an existence and uniqueness theorem for exact…
This paper provides the solution of the Riemann-Papperitz equation with singular points at z=-i,i.This solution is obtained by mapping the singular points into points 0,infinity. The solution is then obtained in terms of the Gauss…
We show that the existence of a Pi^{1}_{N}-indescribable cardinal over the Zermelo-Fraenkel's set theory ZF is proof-theoretically reducible to iterations of Mostowski collapsings and lower Mahlo operations. Furthermore we describe a…
It is shown that the consistency strength of ZF + DC + "the closed unbounded ultrafilter on omega_1 is an ultrafilter" is exactly ZFC + one measurable cardinal.
