For Van Douwen families, maximal families of eventually different permutations and maximal ideal independent families we show that the existence of a $\Sigma^1_2$ family implies the existence of a $\Pi^1_1$ family of the same size. We also…

In the constructible universe, we construct a co-analytic maximal family of pairwise eventually different functions from $\mathbb{N}$ to $\mathbb{N}$ which remains maximal after adding arbitrarily many Sacks reals (by a countably supported…

We show that there is an effectively closed maximal eventually different family of functions in spaces of the form $\prod_n F(n)$ for $F\colon \mathbb{N} \to \mathbb{N}\cup\{\mathbb{N}\}$ and give an exact criterion for when there exists an…

We introduce the notion of an arithmetical type of combinatorial family of reals, which serves to generalize different types of families such as mad families, maximal cofinitary groups, ultrafilter bases, splitting families and other…

We prove in ZFC that there is a MAD family of functions in omega^omega which is also maximal with respect to infinite partial functions. This solves a 20 year old question of Van Douwen. We also strengthen a result of J. Steprans stating…

We study $\mathcal I$-maximal eventually different families of functions from the set of natural numbers into itself where $\mathcal I$ is an arbitrary ideal on the set of natural numbers that includes the ideal of all finite sets…

A line packing is optimal if its coherence is as small as possible. Most interesting examples of optimal line packings are achieving equality in some of the known lower bounds for coherence. In this paper two infinite families of real and…

Generalizing the notion of a tight almost disjoint family, we introduce the notions of a {\em tight eventually different} family of functions in Baire space and a {\em tight eventually different set of permutations} of $\omega$. Such sets…

We show that there are no infinite maximal almost disjoint ("mad") families in Solovay's model, thus solving a long-standing problem posed by A.D.R. Mathias in 1967. We also give a new proof of Mathias' theorem that no analytic infinite…

We study ultrafilters on countable sets and reaping families which are indestructible by Sacks forcing. We deal with the combinatorial characterization of such families and we prove that every reaping family of size smaller than the…

A family $\mathscr{I} \subseteq [\omega]^\omega$ such that for all finite $\{X_i\}_{i\in n}\subseteq \mathcal I$ and $A \in \mathscr{I} \setminus \{X_i\}_{i\in n}$, the set $A \setminus \bigcup_{i < n} X_i$ is infinite, is said to be ideal…

We study two different types of (maximal) almost disjoint families: very mad families and (maximal) cofinitary groups. For the very mad families we prove the basic existence results. We prove that MA implies there exist many pairwise…

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring of prime characteristic $p$. In this paper we give a short proof using filter regular sequences that the set of associated prime ideals of $H^t_I(R)$ is finite for any ideal $I$ and for any $t \ge 0$…

A family $\mathcal{A} \subseteq [\omega]^\omega$ such that for all finite $\{X_i\}_{i\in n}\subseteq \mathcal A$ and $A \in \mathcal{A} \setminus \{X_i\}_{i\in n}$, the set $A \setminus \bigcup_{i \in n} X_i$ is infinite, is said to be…

We prove that the generic maximal independent family obtained by iteratively forcing with the Mathias forcing relative to diagonalization filters is densely maximal. Moreover, by choosing the filters with some care one can ensure the family…

We investigate families of subsets of $\omega$ with almost disjoint refinements in the classical case as well as with respect to given ideals on $\omega$. More precisely, we study the following topics and questions: 1) Examples of…

We consider families F of sequences converging to +infinity that F satisfies the following condition (C): (C): if an open set U in the real line is unbounded above then there exists a sequence belonging to F, which has an infinite number of…

We study subgroups of Thompson's group $F$ by means of an automaton associated with them. We prove that every maximal subgroup of $F$ of infinite index is closed, that is, it coincides with the subgroup of $F$ accepted by the automaton…

Let $S$ be a semiabelian variety over an algebraically closed field, and let $X$ be an irreducible subvariety not contained in a coset of a proper algebraic subgroup of $S$. We show that the number of irreducible components of $[n]^{-1}(X)$…

We show there is a closed (in fact effectively closed, i.e., $\Pi^0_1$) eventually different family (working in ZF or less).
