We develop the theory of cofinal types of ultrafilters over measurable cardinals and establish its connections to Galvin's property. We generalize fundamental results from the countable to the uncountable, but often in surprisingly…
The smooth development of large parts of mathematics hinges on the idea that some sets are `small' or `negligible' and can therefore be ignored for a given purpose. The perhaps most famous smallness notion, namely `measure zero', originated…
In this paper we consider the classes of all continuous $\mathcal{L}$-(pre-)structures for a continuous first-order signature $\mathcal{L}$. We characterize the moduli of continuity for which the classes of finite, countable, or all…
We call an $\alpha \in \mathbb{R}$ regainingly approximable if there exists a computable nondecreasing sequence $(a_n)_n$ of rational numbers converging to $\alpha$ with $\alpha - a_n < 2^{-n}$ for infinitely many $n \in \mathbb{N}$. We…
We provide polynomial upper bounds for the minimal sizes of distal cell decompositions in several kinds of distal structures, particularly weakly $o$-minimal and $P$-minimal structures. The bound in general weakly $o$-minimal structures…
A first order expansion of $(\mathbb{R},+,<)$ is dp-minimal if and only if it is o-minimal. We prove analogous results for algebraic closures of finite fields, $p$-adic fields, ordered abelian groups with only finitely many convex subgroups…
We develop the framework of $\alpha$-largeness introduced by Ketonen and Solovay, by proving a partition theorem for $\alpha$-large sets with $\alpha < \epsilon_0$ which generalizes theorems from Ketonen and Solovay and from Bigorajska and…
The technique of $\star$-translation is important in arguments calibrating the strengths of determinacy theories against large cardinals, for example in [9] and [1] in the paper's bibliography. It has also been used in analysing the…
This paper addresses the longstanding problem of determining the structure of the $\leq_{\mathrm{LT}}$-order in the Effective Topos, known to effectively embed the Turing degrees. In a surprising discovery, we show that the…
Scott and Karp gave an analysis which provides a level-by-level equivalence between global similarity between two structures and local commonality in terms of sharing particular invariants. Scott and Karp's local invariants were certain…
We discuss the back and forth technique in the context of presheaf model theory. The essence of the back and forth technique lies in showing the relationship between various hierarchies which calibrate similarity between two models and,…
Davies and Rogers constructed a Hausdorff measure satisfying the following property: every Borel subset of the space has measure either $\infty$ or $0$. In this paper, we examine cardinal invariants of their measure.
This paper is a continuation of the paper [Got25] and studies Goldstern's principle, a principle about unions of continuum many null sets, further. The main result is that the Hausdorff measure version of Goldstern's principle for…
We compute the cardinality $\mathfrak n_{\dim}(\mathcal M)$ of the sets of dimension functions on the ordered structures $\mathcal M$. The inequality $\mathfrak n_{\dim}(\mathcal M) \leq 1$ holds if $\mathcal M$ is a d-minimal expansion of…
We show that a field $K$ is model complete (in the language of rings) if and only if the Heisenberg group $H(K)$ is model complete (in the language of groups). To show that, we extend Levchuk's result about automorphisms of $H(K)$ to the…
We compare Fornasiero and Terzo's framework of generic derivations on algebraically bounded structures with Le\'on S\'anchez and Tressl's differentially large fields. We show in the case of a single derivation that genericity and…
We investigate the behavior of countable Borel equivalence relations (CBERs) on topological Ramsey spaces. First, we give a simple proof of the fact that every CBER on $[\mathbb{N}]^{\mathbb{N}}$ is hyperfinite on some set of the form…
This paper makes contributions to ``pure'' sheaf model theory, the part of model theory in which the models are sheaves over a complete Heyting algebra. We start by outlining the theory in a way we hope is readable for the non-specialist.…
Walsh [MR4525964, Zbl 1569.03151] has shown that comparing proof-theoretic ordinals is equivalent to comparing $\Pi^1_1$-consequence comparison and $\Pi^1_1$-reflection comparison, all modulo true $\Sigma^1_1$-sentences. In this paper, we…
We show that if a universal theory is not monadically NIP, then this is witnessed by a canonical configuration defined by an existential formula. As a consequence, we show that a hereditary class of relational structures is NIP (resp.…
