Let $(X, +)$ denote $(\mathbb{R}, +)$ or $(2^{\omega}, +_2)$. We prove that for any meagre set $F \subseteq X$ there exists a subgroup $G \le X$ without the Baire property, disjoint with some translation of F. We point out several…

Let $K\subset\mathbb{R}$ be a self-similar set defined on $\mathbb{R}$. It is easy to prove that if the Lebesgue measure of $K$ is zero, then for Lebesgue almost every $t$, $$K+t=\{x+t:x\in K\}$$ only consists of irrational or…

A subset $M$ of a continuum $X$ is called a \textit{meager composant} if $M$ is maximal with respect to the property that every two of its points are contained in a nowhere dense subcontinuum of $X$. Motivated by questions of Bellamy,…

We show that an ideal $\mathcal{I}$ on $\omega$ is meager if and only if the set of sequences $(x_n)$ taking values in a Polish space $X$ for which all elements of $X$ are $\mathcal{I}$-cluster points of $(x_n)$ is comeager. The latter…

In each manifold $M$ modeled on a finite or infinite dimensional cube $[0,1]^n$ we construct a meager $F_\sigma$-subset $X\subset M$ which is universal meager in the sense that for each meager subset $A\subset M$ there is a homeomorphism…

We study the set M(X) of full non-atomic Borel (finite or infinite) measures on a non-compact locally compact Cantor set X. For an infinite measure $\mu$ in M(X), the set $\mathfrak{M}_\mu = \{x \in X : {for any compact open set} U \ni x…

Let $x$ be a sequence taking values in a separable metric space and $\mathcal{I}$ be a generalized density ideal or an $F_\sigma$-ideal on the positive integers (in particular, $\mathcal{I}$ can be any Erd{\H o}s--Ulam ideal or any summable…

We define a class of so-called thinnable ideals $\mathcal{I}$ on the positive integers which includes several well-known examples, e.g., the collection of sets with zero asymptotic density, sets with zero logarithmic density, and several…

In this article, we show that for a partial skew group ring R*G, where R is a commutative ring, each non-zero ideal of R*G intersects R non-trivially if and only if R is a maximal commutative subring of R*G. As a consequence, we obtain…

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…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with a non-zero identity, $S$ be a multiplicatively closed subset of $R$ and $M$ be a unital $R$-module. In this paper, we define a submodule $N$ of $M$ with $(N:_{R}M)\cap S=\emptyset$ to be weakly $S$-primary…

We prove the following theorem: For a partially ordered set Q such that every countable subset has a strict upper bound, there is a forcing notion satisfying ccc such that, in the forcing model, there is a basis of the meager ideal of the…

Let $\Gamma$ be an abelian group and $g \geq h \geq 2$ be integers. A set $A \subset \Gamma$ is a $C_h[g]$-set if given any set $X \subset \Gamma$ with $|X| = k$, and any set $\{ k_1 , \dots , k_g \} \subset \Gamma$, at least one of the…

In this paper we give an example of a closed, strongly one-sided dense set which is not of uniform density type. We also show that there is a set of uniform density type which is not of strong uniform density type.

In this paper, we study stability of $M$-compactness for $l^p$ sum of Banach spaces for $1\leq p<\infty$. We also obtain a characterization of $M$-compact sets in terms of statistically maximizing sequence, a notion which is weaker than a…

For any positive integers l and m, a set of integers is said to be (weakly) l-sum-free modulo m if it contains no (pairwise distinct) elements $x_1,x_2,...,x_l,y$ satisfying the congruence $x_1+\...+x_l\equiv y\bmod{m}$. It is proved that,…

Let $R$ be a regular ring of dimension $d$ containing a field $K$ of characteristic zero. If $E$ is an $R$-module let $Ass^i E = \{ Q \in \ Ass E \mid \ height Q = i \}$. Let $P$ be a prime ideal in $R$ of height $g$. We show that if $R/P$…

We study ideals $\mathcal{I}$ on $\mathbb{N}$ satisfying the following Baire-type property: if $X$ is a complete metric space and $\{X_{A} \colon A \in \mathcal{I} \}$ is a family of nowhere dense subsets of $X$ with $X_{A} \subset X_{B}$…

This paper is concerned with certain generalizations of meagreness and their combinatorial equivalents. The simplest example, and the one which motivated further study in this area, comes about by considering the following definition: a set…

We give an example of a measurable set of reals E such that the set E'={(x,y): x+y in E} is not in the sigma-algebra generated by the rectangles with measurable sides. We also prove a stronger result that there exists an analytic set E such…
