Let $T$ be a complete, superstable theory with fewer than $2^{\aleph_{0}}$ countable models. Assuming that generic types of infinite, simple groups definable in $T^{eq}$ are sufficiently non-isolated we prove that $\omega^{\omega}$ is the…

We show that if we enrich first order logic by allowing quantification over isomorphisms between definable ordered fields the resulting logic, L(Q_{Of}), is fully compact. In this logic, we can give standard compactness proofs of various…

The notion of almost elementariness for a locally compact Hausdorff \'{e}tale groupoid $\mathcal{G}$ with a compact unit space was introduced by the authors as a sufficient condition ensuring the reduced groupoid $C^*$-algebra…

Let K be an abstract elementary class satisfying the joint embedding and the amalgamation properties. Let m be a cardinal above the the L\"owenheim-Skolem number of the class. Suppose K satisfies the disjoint amalgamation property for limit…

Let T be the family of open subsets of a topological space (not necessarily Hausdorff or even T_0). We prove that if T has a base of cardinality <= mu, lambda <= mu < 2^lambda, lambda strong limit of cofinality aleph_0, then T has…

We prove the following continuous analogue of Vaught's Two-Cardinal Theorem: if for some $\kappa>\lambda\geq \aleph_0$, a continuous theory $T$ has a model with density character $\kappa$ which has a definable subset of density character…

In S. 1 we deal with amalgamation bases, e.g., we define when an a.e.c. $k$ has $(\lambda,\kappa)$-amalgamation which means "many" M in $K^k_\lambda$ are amalgamation bases. We then consider what happens for the class of lf groups. In S. 2…

We develop some basic results about full amalgamation classes with intrinsic trascendentals. These classes have generics whose models may have finite subsets whose intrinsic closure is not contained in its algebraic closure. We will show…

We show that it is not provable in ZFC that any two countable elementarily equivalent structures have isomorphic ultrapowers relative to some ultrafilter on omega .

The following pcf results are proved: 1. Assume that kappa > aleph_0 is a weakly compact cardinal. Let mu > 2^kappa be a singular cardinal of cofinality kappa. Then for every regular lambda < pp^+_{Gamma(kappa)} (mu) there is an increasing…

It is stated that Boolean set algebras with unit V, where V is a union of Cartesian products, are axiomatizable. The axiomatization coincides with that of cylindric polyadic equality algebras (class CPE). This is an algebraic representation…

We show that it is consistent with ordinary set theory ZFC and the generalized continuum hypothesis that there exist two separable abelian groups of cardinality aleph_1 which are filtration equivalent and one is a Whitehead group but the…

We prove the existence of pairs of models of the same cardinality lambda which are very equivalent according to EF games, but not isomorphic. We continue the paper math.LO/0404222, but we don't rely on it.

We show relative to strong hypotheses that patterns of compact cardinals in the universe, where a compact cardinal is one which is either strongly compact or supercompact, can be virtually arbitrary. Specifically, we prove if V is a model…

It is proved that, on any Abelian group of infinite cardinality ${\bf m}$, there exist precisely $2^{2^{\bf m}}$ nonequivalent bounded Hausdorff group topologies. Under the continuum hypothesis, the number of nonequivalent compact and…

Let $A \subseteq E$ be a given extension of Hopf (respectively Lie) algebras. We answer the \emph{classifying complements problem} (CCP) which consists of describing and classifying all complements of $A$ in $E$. If $H$ is a given…

We prove that the statement `For all Borel ideals I and J on $\omega$, every isomorphism between Boolean algebras $P(\omega)/I$ and $P(\omega)/J$ has a continuous representation' is relatively consistent with ZFC. In this model every…

We show that the analogues of the Hamkins embedding theorems, proved for the countable models of set theory, do not hold when extended to the uncountable realm of $\omega_1$-like models of set theory. Specifically, under the $\diamondsuit$…

We give another proof that for every lambda >= beth_omega for every large enough regular kappa < beth_omega we have lambda^{[kappa]}= lambda, dealing with sufficient conditions for replacing beth_omega by aleph_omega. In section 2 we show…

We show that assuming modest large cardinals, there is a definable class of ordinals, closed and unbounded beneath every uncountable cardinal, so that for any closed and unbounded subclasses $P, Q$, $\langle L[P],\in ,P \rangle$ and…
