We prove that for a finite first order structure $\mathbf{A}$ and a set of first order formulas $\Phi$ in its language with certain closure properties, the finitary relations on $A$ that are definable via formulas in $\Phi$ are uniquely…
We provide proofs for the fact that certain orders have no descending chains and no antichains.
We study the degrees of selector functions related to the degrees in which a rigid computable structure is relatively computably categorical. It is proved that for some structures such degrees can be represented as the unions of upper cones…
We show that approximations of strict order can calibrate the fine structure of genericity. Particularly, we find exponential behavior within the $\mathrm{NSOP}_{n}$ hierarchy from model theory. Let $0$-$\eth$-independence denote…
In this paper we study \emph{essential hereditary undecidability}. Theories with this property are a convenient tool to prove undecidability of other theories. The paper develops the basic facts concerning essentially hereditary…
We exhibit a connection between geometric stability theory and the classification of unstable structures at the level of simplicity and the $\mathrm{NSOP}_{1}$-$\mathrm{SOP}_{3}$ gap. Particularly, we introduce generic expansions $T^{R}$ of…
We initiate a systematic study of \emph{generic stability independence} and introduce the class of \emph{treeless theories} in which this notion of independence is particularly well-behaved. We show that the class of treeless theories…
A new characterization is given to describe implication bases of a closure system in terms of the system's quasi-closed sets. Using this characterization, it is possible to show that groups of implications corresponding to distinct…
We describe a family of decidable propositional dynamic logics, where atomic modalities satisfy some extra conditions (for example, given by axioms of the logics K5, S5, or K45 for different atomic modalities). It follows from recent…
We continue our earlier study of finite dimensional definable groups in models of the the model companion of an o-minimal L-theory T expanded by a generic derivation as in [F-K]. We generalize Buium's notion of an algebraic D-group to…
We introduce the computable FS-jump, an analog of the classical Friedman--Stanley jump in the context of equivalence relations on the natural numbers. We prove that the computable FS-jump is proper with respect to computable reducibility.…
The logic of the hide and seek game LHS was proposed to reason about search missions and interactions between agents in pursuit-evasion environments. As proved in literature, having an equality constant in the language of LHS drastically…
We prove that every weakly square compact cardinal is a strong limit cardinal. We also study Aronszajn trees with no uncountable finitely branching subtrees, characterizing them in terms of being Lindel\"of with respect to a particular…
In this paper, we give an extension of the J\'{o}nsson-Tarski representation theorem for both normal and non-normal modal algebras so that it preserves countably many infinitary meets and joins. To extend the J\'{o}nsson-Tarski…
It was established by Jensen in 1970 that there is a generic extension $L[a]$ of the constructible universe $L$ by a real $a\not\in L$ such that $a$ is $\varDelta^1_3$ in $L[a]$. Jensen's forcing construction has found a number of…
We prove that the existence of a complete metric space of cardinality at most $2^{\kappa}$ admitting Kuratowski partition is a consequence of $\kappa$ being the smallest real-valued measurable cardinal not greater than $ 2^{\aleph_0}$.
In this paper, we introduce the notion of K-rank, where K is an strong amalgamation Fraisse class. Roughly speaking, the K-rank of a partial type is the number of "copies" of K that can be "independently coded" inside of the type. We study…
We contribute to a recent research program which aims at revisiting the study of the complexity of word problems, a major area of research in combinatorial algebra, through the lens of the theory of computably enumerable equivalence…
Frucht's theorem is the statement that "every group is the automorphism group of a graph". This was shown over ZFC independently by Sabidussi and deGroot, by induction using a well ordered generating set for the group. Sabidussi's proof is…
It is known that several variations of the axiom of determinacy play important roles in the study of reverse mathematics, and the relation between the hierarchy of determinacy and comprehension are revealed by Tanaka, Nemoto, Montalb\'an,…
