We consider, for infinite cardinals kappa and alpha <= kappa^+, the group Pi(kappa,< alpha) of sequences of integers, of length kappa, with non-zero entries in fewer than alpha positions. Our main result tells when Pi(kappa,< alpha) can be…
Let $X$ be the prime spectrum of a ring. In [arXiv:0707.1525] the authors define a topology on $X$ by using ultrafilters and they show that this topology is precisely the constructible topology. In this paper we generalize the construction…
The famous Michael selection theorem deals with the characterisation of paracompact spaces by continuous selections of lower semi-continuous mappings in Banach spaces. In this paper, we will discuss several equivalent forms of this theorem,…
We show that splitting forcing does not have the weak Sacks property below any condition, answering a question of Laguzzi, Mildenberger and Stuber-Rousselle. We also show how some partition results for splitting trees hold or fail and we…
We characterize the Tukey order, the Galvin property/ Cohesive ultrafilters from \cite{Kanamori1978} in terms of ultrapowers. We use this characterization to measure the distance between the Tukey order and other well-known orders of…
We provide two types of guessing principles for ultrafilter ($\diamondsuit^{-}_{\lambda}(U), \ \diamondsuit^p_\lambda(U)$) on $\omega$ which form subclasses of Tukey-top ultrafilters, and construct such ultrafilters in $ZFC$. These…
We present a systematic study of the method of "norms on possibilities" of building forcing notions with keeping their properties under full control. This technique allows us to answer several open problems, but on our way to get the…
We study the partition properties enjoyed by the "next best thing to a P-point'' ultrafilters introduced recently in joint work with Dobrinen and Raghavan. That work established some finite-exponent partition relations, and we now analyze…
This paper addresses several questions of Feng, Gruenhage, and Shen which arose from Michael's theory of continuous selections from countable spaces. We construct an example of a space which is $L$-selective but not $\mathbb{Q}$-selective…
We show that there exist models $\mathcal M_1$ and $\mathcal M_2$ such that $\mathcal M_1$ elementarily embeds into $\mathcal M_2$ but their ultrafilter extensions $\beta(\mathcal M_1)$ and $\beta(\mathcal M_2)$ are not elementarily…
An ultrafilter U is Hausdorff if for any two functions f,g mapping N to N, f(U)=g(U) iff f(n)=g(n) for n in some X in U. We will show that it is consistent that there are no Hausdorff ultrafilters.
We extend some of our earlier results on the interconnection between ultrafilter extensions, and ultrapowers. Throughout we restrict ourselves to relational structures with one binary relation. Recently it was shown that for bounded…
In the present paper we are interested in properties of forcing notions which measure in a sense the distance between the ground model reals and the reals in the extension. We look at the ways the ``new'' reals can be aproximated by ``old''…
On page 43 in \cite{Po83} Sorin Popa asked whether the following property holds: \emph{If $\omega$ is a free ultrafilter on $\mathbb N$ and $\mathcal R_1\subseteq \mathcal R$ is an irreducible inclusion of hyperfinite II$_1$ factors such…
We give a simple example of a set that is weakly Dedekind infinite (= can be mapped onto omega) but dually Dedekind finite (=cannot be mapped noninjectively onto itself), namely, the power set of a superamorphous set. (A infinite set is…
A space is nearly pseudocompact if and only if $\upsilon X\backslash X$ is dense in $\beta X\backslash X$. If we denote $K=cl_{\beta X}(\upsilon X\backslash X)$, then $\delta X=X\cup(\beta X\backslash K)$ is referred by Henriksen and…
We study ultraproducts of finite residue rings $\underset{n\in\mathbb{N}}{\prod}\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z} \diagup \mathcal{U} $ where $\mathcal{U}$ is a non-principal ultrafilter. We find sufficient conditions of the ultrafilter $\mathcal{U}$…
Results of Sierpinski and others have shown that certain finite-dimensional product sets can be written as unions of subsets, each of which is "narrow" in a corresponding direction; that is, each line in that direction intersects the subset…
We show that, for many choices of finite tuples of generators $X = (x_1, \dots , x_d)$ of a tracial von Neumann algebra $(M, \tau)$ satisfying certain decomposition properties (non-primeness, possessing a Cartan subalgebra, or property…
We study some divisibility properties of multiperfect numbers. Our main result is: if $N=p_1^{\alpha_1}... p_s^{\alpha_s} q_1^{2\beta_1}... q_t^{2\beta_t}$ with $\beta_1, ..., \beta_t$ in some finite set S satisfies…
