Vladimir Kanovei \cite{zbMATH01335192} developed the technique of geometric iteration and used it to prove that the perfect set forcing can be iterated with countable supports along any partial order, while preserving $\aleph_1$. In…
We give an exposition of an iteration theorem for iterating $(<\lambda)$-closed stationary $\lambda^+$-cc forcing with supports of size $<\lambda$ and preserving these two properties. We discuss the relation of this theorem with other…
Let $k$ be a complete valuation field. We formulate a free Banach $k$-vector space as a Banach $k$-vector space with an orthonormal Schauder basis, and an almost free Banach $k$-vector space as a non-Archimedean analogue of an almost free…
In this paper, we extend the concept of a Lascar generic automorphism in the setting of models of Peano arithmetic ($\mathrm{PA}$) to the subgroup of the automorphism group of a countable recursively saturated model $\mathcal{M}$ of…
This paper shows that the sheaf representation of finitely presented Heyting algebras constructed by Ghilardi and Zawadowski is, from an algebraic perspective, equivalent to the construction of profinite completion. We show that the dual…
The equational probabilistic spectrum of a finite algebra is the set of probabilities with which equations are satisfied in the algebra. We study algebras with minimal spectrum, that is, spectra consisting only of the values $1$ and…
We compute the sheaf cohomology with constant $\mathbb{Z}_2$ coefficients of a concrete class of locally profinite sets of independent interest. We introduce $k$-sheer partitions to aid in constructions. It is also shown that questions of…
We carry out a semantic study of the constructive modal logic CK. We provide a categorical duality linking the algebraic and birelational semantics of the logic. We then use this to prove Sahlqvist style correspondence and completeness…
The main purpose is to establish two theorems about closed 0-definable subsets $A$ of an affine space $K^{n}$ over a Hensel minimal field $K$. The first, being a non-Archimedean counterpart of one from o-minimal geometry, states that every…
Classically, any structure for a signature $\Sigma$ may be completed to a model of a desired regular theory $T$ by means of the chase construction or small object argument. Moreover, this exhibits $\mathrm{Mod}(T)$ as weakly reflective in…
Assuming a large cardinal hypothesis, Laver gave a representation of the monogenerated free left distributive algebra (LDA) using elementary embeddings and used this representation to prove many algebraic results. Some of these results were…
We firstly show that due to their resplendency ordered henselian valued fields admit relative field quantifier elimination in the Denef--Pas language expanded by linear orders in the field and residue field sort. Secondly, we deduce from a…
The use of nonstandard methods to characterize properties of weak, strong and mixed extensions of congruences to ultrafilters has been the main topic of several recent papers. We show that similar methods can be used to characterize the…
We study groups definable in existentially closed geometric fields with commuting derivations. Our main result is that such a group can be definably embedded in a group interpretable in the underlying geometric field. Compared to earlier…
It would be a heavenly reward if there were a method of weighing theories and sentences in such a way that a theory could never prove a heavier sentence (Chaitin's Heuristic Principle). Alas, no satisfactory measure has been found so far,…
We define a nontrivial version of the square principle $\Box_\omega$, which we then show consistent by means of forcing with finite conditions. This paper has been withdrawn by the author due to the fact that the presented $\Box_\omega$ can…
We define the probability of an equation in a finite algebra as the proportion of tuples in its domain that satisfy it. We call the probabilistic spectrum of an algebra the set of probability values obtained when the equation varies. We…
Over extended systems of finite type arithmetic, we utilize a formal representation of the outer measure to define a translation which allows for the systematic formalization of probabilistic statements. As a main result, this translation…
We prove that the Fischer-Servi logic $\mathsf{IK}$ does not have the (Craig) interpolation property. This is obtained by showing that the corresponding class of modal Heyting algebras lacks the amalgamation property. We also generalize…
The uncountability of the reals was first established by Cantor in what was later heralded as the first paper on set theory. Since the latter constitutes the official foundations of mathematics, the logical study of the uncountability of…
