We continue [Sh:b, Ch XIII] and [Sh:410]. Let W be an inner model of ZFC. Let kappa be a cardinal in V. We say that kappa-covering holds between V and W iff for all X in V with X subseteq ON and V models |X|< kappa, there exists Y in W such…

Given an uncountable regular cardinal $\kappa$, a partial order is $\kappa$-stationarily layered if the collection of regular suborders of $\mathbb{P}$ of cardinality less than $\kappa$ is stationary in $\mathcal{P}_\kappa(\mathbb{P})$. We…

Cummings, Foreman, and Magidor investigated the extent to which square principles are compact at singular cardinals. The first author proved that if $\kappa$ is a singular strong limit of uncountable cofinality, all scales on $\kappa$ are…

We prove that for every uncountable cardinal $\kappa$ such that $\kappa^{<\kappa}=\kappa$, the quasi-order of embeddability on the $\kappa$-space of $\kappa$-sized graphs Borel reduces to the embeddability on the $\kappa$-space of…

The main result of this paper is to show that for any compact space $X$ and any family $\{f_\alpha \colon \alpha< 2^\kappa, f_\alpha \colon X \stackrel{onto}{\longrightarrow} \beta \kappa\}$ of open mappings there exists a point $x \in X$…

The aim of this paper is to investigate the class of quasi $\kappa$-metrizable spaces. This class is invariant with respect to arbitrary products and contains Shchepin's $\kappa$-metrizable spaces as a proper subclass.

We use Shelah's theory of possible cofinalities in order to solve a problem about ultrafilters. THEOREM. Suppose that $ \lambda $ is a singular cardinal, $ \lambda ' < \lambda $, and the ultrafilter $D$ is $ \kappa $-decomposable for all…

In its customary formulation for one-component fluids, the Hierarchical Reference Theory yields a quasilinear partial differential equation for an auxiliary quantity f that can be solved even arbitrarily close to the critical point,…

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…

This paper makes significant progress towards resolving a conjecture relating strong forcing axioms like $PFA$ and the derived model at a limit of Woodin cardinals $\kappa$. In particular, using a concept called Covering Matrices, we show…

Using Shelah's revised GCH theorem we prove that if mu<beth_omega <= lambda are cardinals, then every mu-almost disjoint subfamily B of [lambda]^{beth_omega} is essentially disjoint, i.e. for each b from B there is a subset f(b) of b of…

Answering a question raised by V. V. Tkachuk, we present several examples of $\sigma$-compact spaces, some only consistent and some in ZFC, that are not countably tight but in which the closure of any discrete subset is countably tight. In…

We give a new proof that there are arbitrarily large indecomposable abelian groups; moreover, the groups constructed are absolutely indecomposable, that is, they remain indecomposable in any generic extension. However, any absolutely rigid…

We give a combinatorial characterization of when a maximal almost disjoint family of a weakly compact cardinal $\kappa$ is indestructible by the higher random forcing $\mathbb Q_\kappa$. We then use this characterisation to show that…

For a strongly inacessible cardinal $\kappa$, we investigate the relationships between the following ideals: - the ideal of meager sets in the ${<}\kappa$-box product topology - the ideal of "null" sets in the sense of [Sh:1004]…

Given an arbitrary measurable cardinal $\kappa$, a nondiscrete Hausdorff extremally disconnected topological group of cardinality $\kappa$ is constructed.

We investigate the notion of strong measure zero sets in the context of the higher Cantor space $2^\kappa$ for $\kappa$ at least inaccessible. Using an iteration of perfect tree forcings, we give two proofs of the relative consistency of \[…

It is known that there are many notions of largeness in a semigroup that own rich combinatorial properties. In this paper, we focus on partition and almost disjoint properties of these notions. One of the most remarkable results with…

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 $\alpha \in T$…

We study the continuous reducibility of isomorphism relations in the space of regresive functions in $\kappa^\kappa$. We show for inaccessible $\kappa$, that if $\mathcal{T}$ is a theory with less than $\kappa$ non-isomorphic models of size…
