We construct, in ZFC, a sequence of Boolean algebras for which the product of Lengths is strictly smaller than the Length of the product algebra.
Richter, Stephan, and Zhang asked whether every nonrecursive many-one degree contains a least finite-one degree. We prove this for every nonrecursive \ce\ many-one degree containing a $D$-maximal set. The proof handles the simple cases via…
We force the existence of a chain of length $\omega_3$ in $[\omega_1]^{\omega_1}$ increasing modulo finite. The construction involves symmetric systems of models of two types as side conditions, introduced by the second author. This…
We develop a unified framework for locating natural properties of algebraic and analytic structures within the Borel hierarchy. Objects are presented as quotients of a universal generator and definability is read directly from the quotient…
In this paper we provide a formalism, Sudoku logic, in which a solution is logically deducible if for every cell of the grid we can provably exclude all but a single option. We prove that the deductive system of Sudoku logic is sound and…
We develop the foundations of effective ultraproducts of fields and their Galois groups using the methods of computability theory. These computability-theoretic analogs of ultraproducts are called cohesive products, since the role of an…
This paper presents a unified algebraic study of a family of logics related to Abelian logic (Ab), the logic of Abelian lattice-ordered groups. We treat Ab as the base system and refer to its expansions as superabelian logics. The paper…
This paper models the theory of abstract harmonic spaces in the syntax of the continuous first-order logic of Banach lattices. It addresses a topological question asking when a one-to-one harmonic map onto smooth manifolds $M^n$ is a…
We prove that every ordinal $\alpha<\omega_2$ is the order type of a certain system of uniform Borel sets in the sense of a well-ordering relation defined by Petr Novikov. This result gives a positive answer to a problem posed by Nicolas…
We ask what happens when the index set carries modal structure, with possibilities organized into a Kripke frame. We define modal exchangeability as invariance under accessibility-preserving automorphisms that fix a designated base world,…
We axiomatize the theory of the Farey graph and prove that it is $\omega$-stable of Morley rank $\omega$.
This work addresses the existence of transitive extensions of certain infinite permutation groups which arise as the automorphism groups of model-theoretic structures which are generic in the Fra\"iss\'e sense. The study of transitive…
Building on work of the first author and Kartas, we identify the elementary class generated by all perfectoid fields of fixed residue characteristic $p$ in the language of rings.
We study linear orderings expanded by functions for successor and predecessor. The successor and predecessor on linear orderings capture the relatively intrinsically computably enumerable information about orderings in much the same way…
Assuming that no family of polynomial-size Boolean circuits can factorize a constant fraction of all products of two $n$-bit primes, we show that the bounded arithmetic theory $\text{PV}_1$, even when augmented by the sharply bounded choice…
We show that one can force over $L$ that $\Sigma^1_3$-separation holds, while $\Pi^1_3$-reduction fails, thus separating these two principles for the first time. The construction can be lifted to canonical inner models $M_n$ with $n$-many…
We prove distality of quantifier-free relations on valued fields with finite residue field. By a result of Chernikov-Galvin-Starchenko, this yields Szemer\'edi-Trotter-like incidence bounds for function fields over finite fields. We deduce…
Let $M$ be a tame mouse modelling ZFC. We show that $M$ satisfies "$V=\mathrm{HOD}_x$ for some real $x$", and that the restriction $\mathbb{E}\upharpoonright[\omega_1^M,\mathrm{OR}^M)$ of the extender sequence $\mathbb{E}^M$ of $M$ to…
We force over the constructible universe to obtain a model of the $\Pi^1_3$-reduction property, thus lowering the best known large cardinal strength from the existence of $M_1^{\#}$ to just ZFC. In this model the $\Pi^1_3$-uniformization…
Richter, Stephan, and Zhang asked whether every nonrecursive many-one degree contains a least finite-one degree. We solve this question in the negative, already within the class of computably enumerable many-one degrees. Positive answers…
