A set theory is developed based on the approximations of sets and denoted by AS. In AS the set of all sets exists but the argument for Russell's and Cantor's paradox fail. The Axioms of Separation, Replacement and Foundation are not valid.…

This paper establishes a number of constraints on the structure of large cardinals under strong compactness assumptions. These constraints coincide with those imposed by the Ultrapower Axiom, a principle that is expected to hold in Woodin's…

We investigate large set axioms defined in terms of elementary embeddings over constructive set theories, focusing on $\mathsf{IKP}$ and $\mathsf{CZF}$. Most previously studied large set axioms, notably the constructive analogues of large…

This article explores the model-dependent nature of set cardinality, emphasizing that cardinality is not absolute but varies across different axiomatic frameworks. Although Cantor's diagonal argument shows the real numbers are…

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…

Assume L(\mathbb{R},\mu) satisfies ZF+DC+\Theta>\omega_2 + \mu is a normal fine measure on \powerset_{\omega_1}(\mathbb{R}). The main result of this paper is the characterization theorem of L(\mathbb{R},\mu) which states that…

We prove the following two results. Theorem A: Let alpha be a limit ordinal. Suppose that 2^{|alpha|}<aleph_alpha and 2^{|alpha|^+}<aleph_{|alpha|^+}, whereas aleph_alpha^{|alpha|}>aleph_{|alpha|^+}. Then for all n< omega and for all…

The stable core, an inner model of the form $\langle L[S],\in, S\rangle$ for a simply definable predicate $S$, was introduced by the first author in [Fri12], where he showed that $V$ is a class forcing extension of its stable core. We study…

This dissertation surveys several topics in the general areas of iterated forcing, infinite combinatorics and set theory of the reals. There are two parts. In the first half I consider alternative versions of the Cicho\'n diagram. First I…

Cicho\'n's diagram lists twelve cardinal characteristics (and the provable inequalities between them) associated with the ideals of null sets, meager sets, countable sets, and $\sigma$-compact subsets of the irrationals. It is consistent…

Let kappa be the least ordinal alpha such that L_{alpha}(R) is admissible. Let A be the set of reals x such that x is ordinal definable in L_{\alpha}(R), for some alpha<kappa. It is well known that (assuming determinacy) A is the largest…

We show that under the assumption of the existence of the canonical inner model with one Woodin cardinal $M_1$, there is a model of $\ZFC$ in which $\NS$ is $\aleph_2$-saturated and $\Delta_1$-definable with $\omega_1$ as a parameter which…

We prove that the theory of the models constructible using finitely many cofinality quantifiers - $C_{\lambda_{1},...,\lambda_{n}}^{*}$ and $C_{<\lambda_{1},...,<\lambda_{n}}^{*}$ for $\lambda_{1},...,\lambda_{n}$ regular cardinals - is…

The paper deals with two issues: the existence of universal models of a theory T and related properties when cardinal arithmetic does not give this existence offhand. In the first section we prove that simple theories (e.g., theories…

The manuscript is concerned with the Rudin-Keisler order of ultrafilters on measurable cardinals. The main theorem proved read as follows: Given regular cardinals $\lambda\leq \kappa$, the following theories are equiconsistent modulo ZFC:…

We give an example of a countable theory T such that for every cardinal lambda >= aleph_2 there is a fully indiscernible set A of power lambda such that the principal types are dense over A, yet there is no atomic model of T over A. In…

In the absence of the Axiom of Choice, the "small" cardinal $\omega_1$ can exhibit properties more usually associated with large cardinals, such as strong compactness and supercompactness. For a local version of strong compactness, we say…

The existence of End Elementary Extensions of models M of ZFC is related to the ordinal height of M, according to classical results due to Keisler, Morley and Silver. In this paper, we further investigate the connection between the height…

The work presents the brief exposition of the proof (in ZF) of inaccessible cardinals nonexistence. To this end in view there is used the apparatus of subinaccessible cardinals and its basic tools -- reduced formula spectra and matrices and…

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…
