We use generalizations of concepts from descriptive set theory to study combinatorial objects of uncountable regular cardinality, focussing on higher Kurepa trees and the representation of the sets of cofinal branches through such trees as…

A wide Aronszajn tree is a tree of size $\aleph_1$ with no uncountable branches. Assuming the consistency of the existence of a weakly compact cardinal, we show the consistency of the existence of a wide Aronszajn tree that is…

We show that if the real line is the disjoint union of kappa meager sets such that every meager set is contained in a countable union of them, then kappa = omega_1. This answers a question addressed by J. Cichon. We also prove two theorems…

Several variants of the Halpern-L\"auchli Theorem for trees of uncountable height are investigated. For $\kappa$ weakly compact, we prove that the various statements are all equivalent. We show that the strong tree version holds for one…

We point out some connections between existence of homogenous sets for certain edge colorings and existence of branches in certain trees. As a consequence, we get that any locally additive coloring (a notion introduced in the paper) of a…

We investigate properties of trees of height $\omega_1$ and their preservation under subcomplete forcing. We show that subcomplete forcing cannot add a new branch to an $\omega_1$-tree. We introduce fragments of subcompleteness which are…

We analyze the forcing notion $\mathcal P$ of finite matrices whose rows consists of isomorphic countable elementary submodels of a given structure of the form $H_{\theta}$. We show that forcing with this poset adds a Kurepa tree $T$.…

In this paper we at first consider plane trees with the root vertex and a marked directed edge, outgoing from the root vertex. For such trees we introduce a new characteristic --- the \emph{parity}, using the bracket code. It turns out that…

We investigate the consistency strength of the statement: $\kappa$ is weakly compact and there is no tree on $\kappa$ with exactly $\kappa^{+}$ many branches. We show that this statement fails strongly (in the sense that there is a sealed…

In this paper, we study some tree properties and their related indiscernibilities. First, we prove that SOP$_2$ can be witnessed by a formula with a tree of tuples holding 'arbitrary homogeneous inconsistency' (e.g., weak k-TP$_1$…

We construct a model in which the tree property holds in $\aleph_{\omega + 1}$ and it is destructible under $\text{Col}(\omega, \omega_1)$. On the other hand we discuss some cases in which the tree property is indestructible under small or…

We give a characterization of the strong degrees of categoricity of computable structures greater or equal to $\mathbf 0''$. They are precisely the \emph{treeable} degrees -- the least degrees of paths through computable trees -- that…

A spectral faux tree with respect to a given matrix is a graph which is not a tree but is cospectral with a tree for the given matrix. We consider the existence of spectral faux trees for several matrices, with emphasis on constructions.…

We provide a description of the structure of $\aleph_0$-categorical trees and cycle-free partial orders. First the maximal branches of $\aleph_0$-categorical tree are examined, followed by the configuration of the ramification orders, which…

We show that it is consistent, relative to $\omega$ many supercompact cardinals, that the super tree property holds at $\aleph_n$ for all $2 \leq n < \omega$ but there are weak square and a very good scale at $\aleph_{\omega}$.

A leaf of a plane tree is called an old leaf if it is the leftmost child of its parent, and it is called a young leaf otherwise. In this paper we enumerate plane trees with a given number of old leaves and young leaves. The formula is…
