A compact topological space X is spectral if it is sober (i.e., every irreducible closed set is the closure of a unique singleton) and the compact open subsets of X form a basis of the topology of X, closed under finite intersections.…

The current paper answers an open question of abs/1007.2426 We say that a countable model M characterizes an infinite cardinal kappa, if the Scott sentence of M has a model in cardinality kappa, but no models in cardinality kappa plus. If M…

In this note we answer the following question of Grinblat: Is it consistent that for some set X, cov(NULL restriction X)=lambda is a weakly inaccessible cardinal (so X not null of course) while cov(meagre) is small, say it is aleph_1.

For a cardinal kappa and a model M of cardinality kappa let No(M) denote the number of non-isomorphic models of cardinality kappa which are L_{infty,kappa}--equivalent to M. In [Sh:133] Shelah established that when kappa is a weakly compact…

The main result of this paper is to show that, if $\kappa$ is the smallest real-valued measurable cardinal not greater than $ 2^{\aleph_0}$, then there exists a complete metric space of cardinality not greater than $ 2^{\kappa}$ admitting a…

A 27 years old and still open problem of Juhasz and van Mill asks whether there exists a cardinal kappa such that every regular dense in itself countably compact space has a dense in itself subset of cardinality at most kappa. We give a…

In this paper, we investigate the poset $\mathbf{OF}(X)$ of free open filters on a given space $X$. In particular, we characterize spaces for which $\mathbf{OF}(X)$ is a lattice. For each $n\in\mathbb{N}$ we construct a scattered space $X$…

Assume that there is no quasi-measurable cardinal smaller than $2^\omega$. ($\kappa$ is quasi measurable if there exists $\kappa $-additive ideal $\ci $ of subsets of $\kappa $ such that the Boolean algebra $P(\kappa)/\ci$ satisfies c.c.c.)…

A stationary subset $S$ of a regular uncountable cardinal $\kappa$ {\it reflects fully} at regular cardinals if for every stationary set $T \subseteq \kappa$ of higher order consisting of regular cardinals there exists an $\alpha \in T$…

Let $X$ be a set, $\ka$ be a cardinal number and let $\iH$ be a family of subsets of $X$ which covers each $x\in X$ at least $\ka$ times. What assumptions can ensure that $\iH$ can be decomposed into $\kappa$ many disjoint subcovers? We…

We call a pair of infinite cardinals $(\kappa,\lambda)$ with $\kappa > \lambda$ a dominating (resp. pinning down) pair for a topological space $X$ if for every subset $A$ of $X$ (resp. family $\mathcal{U}$ of non-empty open sets in $X$) of…

Let $X$ be a compact metric space and let $|A|$ denote the cardinality of a set $A$. We prove that if $f\colon X\to X$ is a homeomorphism and $|X|=\infty$ then for all $\delta>0$ there is $A\subset X$ such that $|A|=4$ and for all $k\in Z$…

A classical theorem of Malykhin says that if $\{X_\alpha:\alpha\leq\kappa\}$ is a family of compact spaces such that $t(X_\alpha)\leq \kappa$, for every $\alpha\leq\kappa$, then $t\left( \prod_{\alpha\leq \kappa} X_\alpha \right)\leq…

A covering of a group is a finite set of proper subgroups whose union is the whole group. A covering is minimal if there is no covering of smaller cardinality, and it is nilpotent if all its members are nilpotent subgroups. We complete a…

For $X$ a separable metric space define $\pp(X)$ to be the smallest cardinality of a subset $Z$ of $X$ which is not a relative $\ga$-set in $X$, i.e., there exists an $\om$-cover of $X$ with no $\ga$-subcover of $Z$. We give a…

A well ordering < of a topological space X is "left-separating" if $\{x'\in X: x'< x\}$ is closed in X for any x in X. A space is "left-separated" if it has a left-separating well-ordering. The left-separating type, $ord_l(X)$, of a…

A subset of points in a metric space is said to resolve it if each point in the space is uniquely characterized by its distance to each point in the subset. In particular, resolving sets can be used to represent points in abstract metric…

Assuming the existence of a supercompact cardinal, we construct a model where, for some uncountable regular cardinal $\kappa$, there are no $\Sigma^1_1(\kappa)-\kappa-$mad families.

Roitman's combinatorial principle $\Delta$ is equivalent to monotone normality of the nabla product, $\nabla (\omega +1)^\omega$. If $\{ X_n : n\in \omega\}$ is a family of metrizable spaces and $\nabla_n X_n$ is monotonically normal, then…

We prove the consistency of: for suitable strongly inaccessible cardinal lambda the dominating number, i.e. the cofinality of lambda^lambda is strictly bigger than cov(meagre_lambda), i.e. the minimal number of nowhere dense subsets of…
