We generalize the stable graph regularity lemma of Malliaris and Shelah to the case of finite structures in finite relational languages, e.g., finite hypergraphs. We show that under the model-theoretic assumption of stability, such a…

Shelah showed that the existence of free subsets over internally approachable subalgebras follows from the failure of the PCF conjecture on intervals of regular cardinals. We show that a stronger property called the Approachable Bounded…

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…

In this paper we develop the theory of strongly singular subalgebras of von Neumann algebras, begun in earlier work. We mainly examine the situation of type $\tto$ factors arising from countable discrete groups. We give simple criteria for…

We consider mainly the following version of set theory:"ZF + DC and for every $\lambda,\lambda^{\aleph_0}$ is well ordered", our thesis is that this is a reasonable set theory, e.g. much can be said. In particular, we prove that for a…

We introduce and axiomatize the notion of a reflective cardinal, use it to give semantics to higher order set theory, and explore connections between the notion of reflective cardinals and large cardinal axioms.

We solve a long-standing open problem of Shelah regarding the \emph{Approachability Ideal} $I[\kappa^+]$. Given a singular cardinal $\aleph_\gamma$, a regular cardinal $\mu\in (\mathrm{cf}(\gamma),\aleph_\gamma)$ and assuming appropriate…

We strengthen the property $\Delta$ of a function $f:[\omega_2]^2\rightarrow [\omega_2]^{\leq \omega}$ considered by Baumgartner and Shelah. This allows us to consider new types of amalgamations in the forcing used by Rabus, Juh\'asz and…

We present a version with non-definable forcing notions of Shelah's theory of iterated forcing along a template. Our main result, as an application, is that, if $\kappa$ is a measurable cardinal and $\theta<\kappa<\mu<\lambda$ are…

This work studies slice functions over finite-dimensional division algebras. Their zero sets are studied in detail along with their multiplicative inverses, for which some unexpected phenomena are discovered. The results are applied to…

We investigate a variety of cut and choose games, their relationship with (generic) large cardinals, and show that they can be used to characterize a number of properties of ideals and of partial orders: certain notions of distributivity,…

Let $\mathcal{N}$ be the $\sigma$-ideal of the null sets of reals. We introduce a new property of forcing notions that enable control of the additivity of $\mathcal{N}$ after finite support iterations. This is applied to answer some open…

We generalise Jensen's result on the incompatibility of subcompactness with square. We show that alpha^+-subcompactness of some cardinal less than or equal to alpha precludes square_alpha, but also that square may be forced to hold…

We investigate infinite-exponent partition relations on arbitrary relational structures, with a focus on linear orders and graphs. Any such relation contradicts the Axiom of Choice. We show that there are some such relations which are…

We study several ideal-based constructions in the context of singular stationarity. By combining methods of strong ideals, supercompact embeddings, and Prikry-type posets, we obtain three consistency results concerning mutually stationary…

We show various criteria to verify if a given nested fractal has a good labeling property, inter alia we present a characterization of GLP for fractals with an odd number of essential fixed points. We show a convenient reduction of area to…

Using Godement mean on the Fourier-Stieltjes algebra of a locally compact quantum group we obtain strong separation results for quantum positive-definite functions associated to a subclass of representations, strengthening for example the…

Using a new definition of rank for representations of semisimple groups sharp results are proved for the decay of matrix coefficients of unitary representations of two types of non-split $p$-adic simple algebraic groups of exceptional type.…

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…

Let K be an Abstract Elemenetary Class satisfying the amalgamation and the joint embedding property, let \mu be the Hanf number of K. Suppose K is tame. MAIN COROLLARY: (ZFC) If K is categorical in a successor cardinal bigger than…
