Following a suggestion of Birkhoff and Von Neumann [Ann. Math. 37 (1936), 23-32], we pursue a joint study of quantum logic and intuitionistic logic. We exhibit a linear-time translation which for each quantum logic $Q$ and each…

This article is interested in pullbacks under the logarithmic derivative of algebraic ordinary differential equations. In particular, assuming the solution set of an equation is internal to the constants, we would like to determine when its…

Let $n \geq 1$ and assume that there is a Woodin cardinal. For $x \in \mathbb{R}$ let $\alpha_x$ be the least $\beta$ such that \[ L_\beta [x] \models \Sigma_n \text{-KP} + \exists \kappa (``\kappa \text{ is inaccessible and }\kappa^+…

Quasi-MV* algebras were introduced as generalizations of MV*-algebras and quasi-MV algebras. The recent investigation into quasi-MV* algebras shows that they are closely related to quantum computational logic and complex fuzzy logic. In…

In this paper, we introduce the subvariety of quasi-MV* algebras in order to characterize the logic which is related to complex fuzzy logic. First, we give the definitions of strong quasi-MV* algebra and strong quasi-Wajsberg* algebra and…

We study the filter versions of square bracket partition relations, focusing on Jonssonicity and Magidority. We show that the singular cardinals in a Kleinberg sequence above some strong partition cardinal are not Magidor, but the limit of…

In a previous paper, entitled "Structural Highness Notions," we defined several classes of degrees that are high in senses related to computable structure theory. Each class of degrees is characterized by a structural feature (e.g., an…

This thesis is expository in nature. We analyze the connection between abstract minions, which can be described as functors from the category of finite ordinals to sets, and concrete minions, which are sets $\mathrm{Pol}(A, B)$ of…

In line with known results on groups, we show the existence of the nilpotent radical in Lie rings with minimal condition on centralizers. We also prove a form of Engel's theorem if the characteristic is zero.

Let $\textbf{SU}$ be the superintuitionistic logic defined by the axiom $\boldsymbol{su} = ((\neg p\to q)\land(\neg q\to p) \rightarrow r \vee s) \to ( p \rightarrow r) \vee(q \rightarrow s)$, or equivalently, by Andrew's axiom. It is easy…

Call a subset of $\mathbf{FIN}_k$ small if it does not contain a copy of $\langle{A\rangle}$ for some infinite block sequence $A \in \mathbf{FIN}_k^{[\infty]}$. Gowers' $\mathbf{FIN}_k$ theorem asserts that the set of small subsets of…

In this paper, we prove that $\mathsf{ZFC+WA}_{n+1}$ implies the consistency of $\mathsf{ZFC+WA}_n$ for $n\ge 0$. We also prove that $\mathsf{ZFC+WA}_n$ is finitely axiomatizable, and $\mathsf{ZFC+WA}$ is not finitely axiomatizable.

Given a cofinal cardinal function $h\in{}^\kappa\kappa$ for $\kappa$ inaccessible, we consider the dominating $h$-localisation number, that is, the least cardinality of a dominating set of $h$-slaloms such that every $\kappa$-real is…

We continue to develop a research line initiated in \cite{wollic22}, studying I/O logic from an algebraic approach based on subordination algebras. We introduce the classes of slanted (co-)Heyting algebras as equivalent presentations of…

The logic blogs 2023 and 2024 have been joined. The present file contains a lot on particular classes of groups and their relationship with logic, as well as entries on ergodic theory and on foundations. There is also a bit on AI proving at…

The purpose of the present paper is to analyze several variants of Solovay's theorem on the existence of doubly partially conservative sentences. First, we investigate $\Theta$ sentences that are doubly $(\Gamma, \Lambda)$-conservative over…

I provide an overview of some of Sundholm's remarks on the history and philosophy of logic. In particular, I focus on Sundholm's proposal to explain meaning with no object-language/metalanguage distinction, and to provide a consequently…

We introduce and study a family of axioms that closely follows the pattern of parametrized diamonds, studied by Moore, Hru\v{s}\'ak, and D\v{z}amonja in [13]. However, our approach appeals to model theoretic / forcing theoretic notions,…

We study type spaces and saturation for local positive logic.

We investigate the descriptive complexity of the set of models of first-order theories. Using classical results of Knight and Solovay, we give a sharp condition for complete theories to have a $\pmb\Pi_\omega^0$-complete set of models. In…
