We define a $\sigma$-centered notion of forcing that forces the existence of a Boolean algebra with the Grothendieck property and without the Nikodym property. In particular the existence of such an algebra is consistent with the negation…

Justin Moore's weak club-guessing principle $\mho$ admits various possible generalizations to the second uncountable cardinal. One of them was shown to hold in ZFC by Shelah. A stronger one was shown to follow from several consequences of…

This paper establishes bounds on norms of all orders for solutions on the global attractor of the 2D Navier-Stokes equations, complexified in time. Specifically, for periodic boundary conditions on $[0,L]^2$, and a force…

We say that a knot $k_1$ in the $3$-sphere {\it $1$-dominates} another $k_2$ if there is a proper degree 1 map $E(k_1) \to E(k_2)$ between their exteriors, and write $k_1 \ge k_2$. When $k_1 \ge k_2$ but $k_1 \ne k_2$ we write $k_1 > k_2$.…

In chapter 9 of his book "The Axiom of Determinacy, Forcing Axioms, and the Nonstationary Ideal", Woodin shows how to force the Strong Chang Conjecture over models of determinacy using $\mathbb{P}_{\mathrm{max}}$. We show here how a…

We formulate certain inequalities for the geometric quantities characterizing causal diamonds in curved and Minkowski spacetimes. These inequalities involve the red-shift factor which, as we show explicitly in the spherically symmetric…

We investigate the effects of various forcings on several forms of the Halpern-L\"auchli Theorem. For inaccessible $\kappa$, we show they are preserved by forcings of size less than $\kappa$. Combining this with work of Zhang in…

The dynamo equations are solved numerically with a helical forcing corresponding to the Roberts flow. In the fully turbulent regime the flow behaves as a Roberts flow on long time scales, plus turbulent fluctuations at short time scales.…

Reinhardt's conjecture, a formalization of the statement that a truthful knowing machine can know its own truthfulness and mechanicalness, was proved by Carlson using sophisticated structural results about the ordinals and transfinite…

We present two ways in which the model $L({\mathbb R})$ is canonical assuming the existence of large cardinals. We show that the theory of this model, with {\em ordinal} parameters, cannot be changed by small forcing; we show further that a…

Tight-binding molecular dynamics simulations shed light into the fracture mechanisms and the ideal strength of tetrahedral amorphous carbon and of nanocomposite carbon containing diamond crystallites, two of the hardest materials. It is…

We prove that the class of all ordinals Ord is not weakly compact with respect to definable classes. Specifically, in any model of ZFC, the definable tree property fails for Ord, in that there is a definable Ord tree with no definable…

We strengthen the revised GCH theorem by showing, e.g., that for lambda=cf(lambda)>beth_omega, for all but finitely many regular kappa<beth_omega, lambda is accessible on cofinality kappa in a weak version of it holds. In particular,…

Motivated by the theory of domination for types, we introduce a notion of domination for Keisler measures called extension domination. We argue that this variant of domination behaves similarly to its type setting counterpart. We prove that…

We develop a unified Cartan geometric framework where dislocations and disclinations correspond to torsion and curvature of the material coframe connection, respectively, and phase defects emerge as U(1) vortices. This single action…

We introduce several properties of forcing notions which imply that their lambda-support iterations are lambda-proper. Our methods and techniques refine those studied in math.LO/9906024, math.LO/0210205, math.LO/0508272 and math.LO/0605067,…

In this paper we generalize the main result of [13] in two different situations: in the first case for MOTSs of genus greater than one and, in the second case, for MOTSs of high dimension with negative $\sigma$-constant. In both cases we…

We study L\"owenheim-Skolem and Omitting Types theorems in Transition Algebra, a logical system obtained by enhancing many sorted first-order logic with features from dynamic logic. The sentences we consider include compositions, unions,…

We introduce a new method for building models of CH, together with $\Pi_2$ statements over $H(\omega_2)$, by forcing. Unlike other forcing constructions in the literature, our construction adds new reals, although only $\aleph_1$-many of…

We prove the following two results. Theorem A: Let alpha be a limit ordinal. Suppose that 2^{|alpha|}<aleph_alpha and 2^{|alpha|^+}<aleph_{|alpha|^+}, whereas aleph_alpha^{|alpha|}>aleph_{|alpha|^+}. Then for all n< omega and for all…
