We consider bipartite graphs definable in o-minimal structures, in which the edge relation $G$ is a finite union of graphs of certain measure-preserving maps. We establish a fact on the existence of definable matchings with few short…

We show that there exists a recursive coloring function $c$ such that any $\Pi^0_3$ set is not a solution to $c$ for Hindman's theorem. We also show that there exists a recursive coloring function $c$ such that any $\Delta^0_3$ set is not a…

In this paper we study groups definable in existentially closed partial differential fields of characteristic 0 with an automorphism which commutes with the derivations. In particular, we study Zariski dense definable subgroups of simple…

In this paper we study the spectrum of heights of transitive models of theories extending $V = L[A]$, under various definitions. In particular, we investigate the consistency strength of making those spectra as simple as possible.

We continue the study of the virtual large cardinal hierarchy by analysing virtual versions of superstrong, Woodin, and Berkeley cardinals. Gitman and Schindler showed that virtualizations of strong and supercompact cardinals yield the same…

Stone space partitions $\{X_{p}\mid p\in P\}$ satisfying conditions like $\bar{X_{p}}=\bigcup_{q\leqslant p}X_{q}$ for all $p\in P$, where $P$ is a poset or PO system (poset with a distinguished subset), arise naturally in the study both of…

This paper is intended to survey the basics of localization and anti-localization cardinals on the reals, and its interplay with notions and cardinal characteristics related to measure and category.

This paper deals with two notions: a polarized partition relations $\left( \begin{array}{c} \alpha \beta \end{array} \right) \to \left( \begin{array}{cc} \gamma & \eta \delta & \lambda \end{array} \right)$ and product of generalized strong…

We introduce and study semi-equational and weakly semi-equational theories, generalizing equationality in stable theories (in the sense of Srour) to the NIP context. In particular, we establish a connection to distality via one-sided strong…

The aim of this paper is to construct ultrafilters without immediate predecessors in the Rudin-Frolik order in $\beta \kappa\setminus \kappa$, where $\kappa$ is a regular cardinal. This generalizes the problem posed by Peter Simon more than…

This is a slightly corrected version of an old work. Under certain cardinal arithmetic assumptions, we prove that for every large enough regular $\lambda$ cardinal, for many regular $\kappa < \lambda$, many stationary subsets of $\lambda$…

Good frames were suggested in [Sh:h] as the (bare-bones) parallel, in the context of AECs, to superstable (among elementary classes). Here we consider $(\mu,\lambda,\kappa)$-frames as candidates for being (in the context of AECs) the…

Conway's field No of surreal numbers comes both with a natural total order and an additional "simplicity relation" which is also a partial order. Considering No as a doubly ordered structure for these two orderings, an isomorphic copy of No…

Part I: We would like to generalize imaginary elements, weight of ${\rm ortp}(a,M,N),{\mathbf P}$-weight, ${\mathbf P}$-simple types, etc. from [Sh:c, Ch.III,V,\S4] to the context of good frames. This requires allowing the vocabulary to…

For a strongly inacessible cardinal $\kappa$, we investigate the relationships between the following ideals: - the ideal of meager sets in the ${<}\kappa$-box product topology - the ideal of "null" sets in the sense of [Sh:1004]…

This is a slightly corrected version of an old work. For a cardinal $\mu$ we give a sufficient condition $\oplus_\mu$ (involving ranks measuring existence of independent sets) for: $\otimes_\mu$ if a Borel set $B\subseteq \mathbb{R} \times…

It has recently been shown that fairly strong axiom systems such as $\mathsf{ACA}_0$ cannot prove that the antichain with three elements is a better quasi order ($\mathsf{bqo}$). In the present paper, we give a complete characterization of…

Gao and Jackson showed that any countable Borel equivalence relation (CBER) induced by a countable abelian Polish group is hyperfinite. This prompted Hjorth to ask if this is in fact true for all CBERs classifiable by (uncountable) abelian…

We shall deal comprehensively with Black Boxes, the intention being that provably in ZFC we have a sequence of guesses of extra structure on small subsets, where the guesses are pairwise almost disjoint; by this we mean they have quite…

We deal with the monadic (second-order) theory of order. We prove all known results in a unified way, show a general way of reduction, prove more results and show the limitation on extending them. We prove (CH) that the monadic theory of…
