Given two elementary embeddings from the collection of sets of rank less than $\lambda$ to itself, one can combine them to obtain another such embedding in two ways: by composition, and by applying one to (initial segments of) the other.…

In this paper, we continue the study of a left-distributive algebra of elementary embeddings from the collection of sets of rank less than lambda to itself, as well as related finite left-distributive algebras (which can be defined without…

Let $j:V_\lambda---> V_\lambda$ be an elementary embedding, with critical point $\kappa$, and let $f(n)$ be the number of critical points of embeddings in the algebra generated by $j$ which lie between $j^n(\kappa)$ and $j^{n+1}(\kappa)$.…

In this paper, we apply our minimax theory ([4], [5], [6]) with the one developed by A. Moameni in [2] to formalize a general scheme giving the multiplicity of critical points. Here is a sample of application of the scheme to a critical…

There exists a family $\{B_{\alpha}\}_{\alpha<\omega_1}$ of sets of countable ordinals such that o $\max B_{\alpha}=\alpha$, o if $\alpha\in B_{\beta}$ then $B_{\alpha}\subseteq B_{\beta}$, o if $\lambda\leq \alpha$ and $\lambda$ is a limit…

Assume ZF (without the Axiom of Choice). Let $j:V_\varepsilon\to V_\delta$ be a non-trivial $\in$-cofinal $\Sigma_1$-elementary embedding, where $\varepsilon,\delta$ are limit ordinals. We prove some restrictions on the constructibility of…

Any finite set of linear operators on an algebra $A$ yields an operator algebra $B$ and a module structure on A, whose endomorphism ring is isomorphic to a subring $A^B$ of certain invariant elements of $A$. We show that if $A$ is a…

Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb{C}$ be a bounded domain. In this note, we use complex variable methods to study the number of critical points of the function $v=v_\Omega$ that solves the elliptic problem $\Delta v = -2$ in $\Omega,$ with boundary…

We continue work on the topology obtained by the convergence $\lambda_{ls}$, which started in \cite{KuPaCZ}, and further investigated in \cite{KuPaFil19}. The main goal is to describe the closed sets and closure operator by the family of…

Let $A(x): =(A_{i, j}(x))$ be a continuous function defined on some subshift of $\Omega:= \{0,1, \cdots, m-1\}^\mathbb{N}$, taking $d\times d$ non-negative matrices as values and let $\nu$ be an ergodic $\sigma$-invariant measure on the…

We give a sharp sufficient condition on the distribution function, $|\{x\in \Omega :\,p(x)\leq 1+\lambda\}|$, $\lambda>0$, of the exponent function $p(\cdot): \Omega \to [1,\infty)$ that implies the embedding of the variable Lebesgue space…

For each natural number $n$, let $C^{(n)}$ be the closed and unbounded proper class of ordinals $\alpha$ such that $V_\alpha$ is a $\Sigma_n$ elementary substructure of $V$. We say that $\kappa$ is a \emph{$C^{(n)}$-cardinal} if it is the…

It is commonly believed that the normalized gaps between consecutive ordinates $t_n$ of the zeros of the Riemann zeta function on the critical line can be arbitrarily large. In particular, drawing on analogies with random matrix theory, it…

We establish the first tight lower bound of $\Omega(\log\log\kappa)$ on the query complexity of sampling from the class of strongly log-concave and log-smooth distributions with condition number $\kappa$ in one dimension. Whereas existing…

Consider the Dirichlet problem with respect to an elliptic operator \[ A = - \sum_{k,l=1}^d \partial_k \, a_{kl} \, \partial_l - \sum_{k=1}^d \partial_k \, b_k + \sum_{k=1}^d c_k \, \partial_k + c_0 \] on a bounded Wiener regular open set…

Suppose $\kappa$ is $\lambda$-supercompact witnessed by an elementary embedding $j:V\rightarrow M$ with critical point $\kappa$, and further suppose that $F$ is a function from the class of regular cardinals to the class of cardinals…

Probabilistic operational semantics for a nondeterministic extension of pure lambda calculus is studied. In this semantics, a term evaluates to a (finite or infinite) distribution of values. Small-step and big-step semantics are both…

We establish a continuous embedding $W^{s(\cdot),2}(\Omega)\hookrightarrow L^{\alpha(\cdot)}(\Omega)$, where the variable exponent $\alpha(x)$ can be close to the critical exponent $2_{s}^*(x)=\frac{2N}{N-2\bar{s}(x)}$, with…

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…

We use forcing over admissible sets to show that, for every ordinal $\alpha$ in a club $C\subset\omega_1$, there are copies of $\alpha$ such that the isomorphism between them is not computable in the join of the complete $\Pi^1_1$ set…
