We are interested in the possible sets of cardinalities of branches of Kurepa trees in models of $ZFC$ $+$ $CH$. In this paper we present a sufficient condition (for sets of cardinals) to be consistently the set of cardinalities of branches…
By an omega_1 --tree we mean a tree of size omega_1 and height omega_1. An omega_1 --tree is called a Kurepa tree if all its levels are countable and it has more than omega_1 branches. An omega_1 --tree is called a Jech--Kunen tree if it…
In this paper we investigate the problem of the distributivity of Kurepa trees. We show that it is consistent that there are Kurepa trees and for every Kurepa tree there is a small forcing notion which adds a branch to it without collapsing…
We consider a transitive relation on the power set of $\omega_1$ and show if there is a maximal element with respect to this relation then there is a Kurepa tree with no Aronszajn subtree. We also show that if there is a maximal subset of…
By an omega_1--tree we mean a tree of power omega_1 and height omega_1. Under CH and 2^{omega_1}> omega_2 we call an omega_1--tree a Jech--Kunen tree if it has kappa many branches for some kappa strictly between omega_1 and 2^{omega_1}. In…
We show that the existence of an almost Souslin Kurepa tree is consistent with $ZFC$. We also prove their existence in $L$. These results answer two questions from Zakrzewski.
For \math{p\ge 1}, we prove that every forest with \math{p} trees whose sizes are $a_1,..., a_p$ can be embedded in any graph containing at least $\sum_{i=1}^p (a_i + 1)$ vertices and having a minimum degree at least $\sum_{i=1}^p a_i$.
We propose the following conjecture: For every fixed $\alpha\in [0,\frac 13)$, each graph of minimum degree at least $(1+\alpha)\frac k2$ and maximum degree at least $2(1-\alpha)k$ contains each tree with $k$ edges as a subgraph. Our main…
In the paper we probe the possibilities of creating a Kurepa tree in a generic extension of a model of CH plus no Kurepa trees by an omega_1-preserving forcing notion of size at most omega_1. In the first section we show that in the Levy…
Building on recent work of Krueger and the second author, we prove the consistency of the Guessing Model Principle at $\omega_2$ together with the existence of an almost Kurepa Suslin tree. In particular, it is consistent that the Guessing…
In this paper, we investigate the structures of an extremal tree which has the minimal number of subtrees in the set of all trees with the given degree sequence of a tree. In particular, the extremal trees must be caterpillar and but in…
By an omega_1 --tree we mean a tree of power omega_1 and height omega_1. We call an omega_1 --tree a Jech--Kunen tree if it has kappa --many branches for some kappa strictly between omega_1 and 2^{omega_1}. In this paper we construct the…
We show it is consistent that there is a Souslin tree $S$ such that after forcing with $S$, $S$ is Kurepa and for all clubs $C \subset \omega_1$, $S\upharpoonright C$ is rigid. This answers Fuchs's questions in Club degrees of rigidity and…
We show it is consistent with $\ZFC$ that there is an everywhere Kurepa line which is order isomorphic to all of its dense $\aleph_2$-dense suborders. Moreover, this Kurepa line does not contain any Aronszajn suborder. We also show it is…
We show that compact cardinals and {\rm MM} are sensitive to $\lambda$-closed forcings for arbitrarily large $\lambda$. This is done by adding 'regressive' $\lambda$-Kurepa-trees in either case. We argue that the destruction of regressive…
We prove that it is consistent that there exists a Kurepa tree $T$ such that ${}^{\omega_1}2$ is a continuous image of the topological space $[T]$ consisting of all cofinal branches of $T$ with respect to the cone topologies. This result…
It is consistent that there exists a Souslin tree $T$ such that after forcing with it, $T$ becomes an almost Souslin Kurepa tree. This answers a question of Zakrzewski.
We give a complete characterization of the sets of cardinals that in a suitable forcing extension can be the Kurepa spectrum, that is, the set of cardinalities of branches of Kurepa trees. This answers a question of the first named author.
This paper studies Minimum Spanning Trees under incomplete information for its vertices. We assume that no information is available on the precise placement of vertices so that it is only known that vertices belong to some neighborhoods…
In this paper we aim to compare Kurepa trees and Aronszajn trees. Moreover, we analyze the affect of large cardinal assumptions on this comparison. Using the the method of walks on ordinals, we will show it is consistent with ZFC that there…
