We show that it is consistent with ZFC that all filters which have the Baire property are Lebesgue measurable. We also show that the existence of a Sierpinski set implies that there exists a nonmeasurable filter which has the Baire…
We give several topological/combinatorial conditions that, for a filter on $\omega$, are equivalent to being a non-meager $\mathsf{P}$-filter. In particular, we show that a filter is countable dense homogeneous if and only if it is a…
We study Baire category for subsets of 2^omega that are downward-closed with respect to the almost-inclusion ordering (on the power set of the natural numbers, identified with 2^omega). We show that it behaves better in this context than…
We define separating properties for normal ultrafilters. We prove that compactness and supercompactness are separable, yet compactness and measurability are not. We describe how to use separating properties in order to elicit distinct…
Selective ultrafilters are characterized by many equivalent properties, in particular the Ramsey property that every finite colouring of unordered pairs of integers has a homogeneous set in U, and the equivalent property that every function…
In this paper we analyze states on C*-algebras and their relationship to filter-like structures of projections and positive elements in the unit ball. After developing the basic theory we use this to investigate the Kadison-Singer…
We introduce a unified framework for studying persistence phenomena in commutative algebra via filtrations of ideals. For a filtration $\mathcal{F} = \{I_i\}_{i \in \mathbb{N}}$, we define $\mathcal{F}$-persistence and $\mathcal{F}$-strong…
Given a cardinal $\kappa$ and filters $\mathcal{F}_\alpha$ on $\omega$ for $\alpha\in\kappa$, we will show that if $\prod_{\alpha\in\kappa}\mathcal{F}_\alpha$ is countable dense homogeneous then $\kappa<\mathfrak{p}$ and each…
Using the property of being completely Baire, countable dense homogeneity and the perfect set property we will be able, under Martin's Axiom for countable posets, to distinguish non-principal ultrafilters on $\omega$ up to homeomorphism.…
For a free ultrafilter U on omega we study several cardinal characteristics which describe part of the combinatorial structure of U. We provide various consistency results; e.g. we show how to force simultaneously many characters and many…
We study sigma-ideals and regularity properties related to the "filter-Laver" and "dual-filter-Laver" forcing partial orders. An important innovation which enables this study is a dichotomy theorem proved recently by Miller [1]. [1] Arnold…
This work is devoted to the so-called filtration theory of semigroup generators in the unit disk. It should be noted that numerous filtrations studied to nowdays have been introduced for different purposes and considered from different…
We continue investigations of reasonable ultrafilters on uncountable cardinals defined in math.LO/0407498. We introduce stronger properties of ultrafilters and we show that those properties may be handled in lambda-support iterations of…
We introduce $\textit{Laver ultrafilters}$, namely ultrafilters $\mathcal{U}$ for which the associated Laver forcing $\mathbb{L}_{\mathcal{U}}$ has the Laver property. We give simple combinatorial characterisations of these ultrafilters,…
We study the classes of filters F on N such that the weak and strong F-convergence of sequences in l1 coincide. We study also an analogue of l1 weak sequential completeness theorem for filter convergence.
In this paper, we explore various ways in which a factor $\sigma$-algebra $\mathscr{B}$ can sit in a dynamical system $\mathbf{X} :=(X, \mathscr{A}, \mu, T)$, i.e. we study some possible structures of the extension $\mathscr{A} \rightarrow…
We introduce a notion of integration defined from filters over families of finite sets. This procedure corresponds to determining the average value of functions whose range lies in any algebraic structure in which finite averages make…
We investigate the $\sigma$-porosity of certain known ideals of subsets of natural numbers. Porosity is a notion of smallness in metric spaces that is stronger than nowhere density. Analogously, $\sigma$-porosity is a strengthening of…
We study various combinatorial properties, and the implications between them, for filters generated by infinite-dimensional subspaces of a countable vector space. These properties are analogous to selectivity for ultrafilters on the natural…
Matrix properties are a type of property of categories which includes the ones of being Mal'tsev, arithmetical, majority, unital, strongly unital and subtractive. Recently, an algorithm has been developed to determine implications…
