The purpose of this paper is to present some results which suggest that the Singular Cardinals Hypothesis follows from the Proper Forcing Axiom. What will be proved is that a form of simultaneous reflection follows from the Set Mapping…
We analyze the implications of electroweak and strong coupling unification in a very general class of models extending the minimal supersymmetric standard model in $4+p$ dimensions $(p\geq 0)$. In general, electroweak precision data require…
We prove the two theorems of the title, settling two long standing questions in the local theory of singular minimal hypersurfaces. The sharpness of either result is with respect to its hypothesis on the size of the allowable singular sets.…
Let $\mathrm{cof}(\mu)=\mu$ and $\kappa$ be a supercompact cardinal with $\mu<\kappa$. Assume that there is an increasing and continuous sequence of cardinals $\langle\kappa_\xi\mid \xi<\mu\rangle$ with $\kappa_0:=\kappa$ and such that, for…
In \cite{MV} we defined and proved the consistency of the principle ${\rm GM}^+(\omega_3,\omega_1)$ which implies that many consequences of strong forcing axioms hold simultaneously at $\omega_2$ and $\omega_3$. In this paper we formulate a…
We provide two proofs of the compactness theorem for extensions of first-order logic based on team semantics. First, we build upon L\"uck's ultraproduct construction for team semantics and prove a suitable version of {\L}o\'s' Theorem.…
We find many conditions equivalent to the model-theoretical property $\lambda \stackrel{\kappa}{\Rightarrow} \mu$ introduced in [L1]. Our conditions involve uniformity of ultrafilters, compactness properties of products of topological…
In this paper, we address the problem of change in an abstract argumentation system. We focus on a particular change: the addition of a new argument which interacts with previous arguments. We study the impact of such an addition on the…
The ultrapower theorem of Keisler-Shelah allows such model-theoretic notions as elementary equivalence, elementary embedding and existential embedding to be couched in the language of categories (limits, morphism diagrams). This in turn…
In [2] the author claims to provide a counterexample to a result in a recent paper [1]. In this note, we prove that the details of his example is false and this example is compatible with our result in [1] and so is not a countreexample.
We provide a broad class of counterexamples to a conjecture of L. de Branges concerning the superfluity of the continuity property in the axiomatic description of de Branges spaces.
In this paper we analyze the connection between some properties of partially strongly compact cardinals: the completion of filters of certain size and instances of the compactness of $\mathcal{L}_{\kappa,\kappa}$. Using this equivalence we…
The consequences of certain simple assumptions like smoothness of ground state properties and vanishing of the vacuum energy (at least perturbatively) are explored. It would be interesting from the point of view of building realistic…
This paper contributes to the theory of large cardinals beyond the Kunen inconsistency, or choiceless large cardinal axioms, in the context where the Axiom of Choice is not assumed. The first part of the paper investigates a periodicity…
Compactness is one of the core notions of analysis: it connects local properties to global ones and makes limits well-behaved. We study the computational properties of the compactness of Cantor space $2^{\mathbb{N}}$ for uncountable covers.…
We introduce a covering notion depending on two cardinals, which we call $\mathcal O $-$ [ \mu, \lambda ]$-compactness, and which encompasses both pseudocompactness and many other generalizations of pseudocompactness. For Tychonoff spaces,…
A dual pair formulation for asymmetric locally convex spaces is developed that strictly generalises the ordinary vector space setting. The concept of a polar topology carries over to the asymmetric case and some familiar results are…
There are several examples in the literature showing that compactness-like properties of a cardinal $\kappa$ cause poor behavior of some generic ultrapowers which have critical point $\kappa$ (Burke \cite{MR1472122} when $\kappa$ is a…
We summarize the known methods of producing a non-supercompact strongly compact cardinal and describe some new variants. Our Main Theorem shows how to apply these methods to many cardinals simultaneously and exactly control which cardinals…
The strong continuity principle reads "every pointwise continuous function from a complete separable metric space to a metric space is uniformly continuous near each compact image." We show that this principle is equivalent to the fan…
