We investigate the strength of the existence of a non-principal ultrafilter over fragments of higher order arithmetic. Let U be the statement that a non-principal ultrafilter exists and let ACA_0^{\omega} be the higher order extension of…

We give a model-theoretic perspective on regular ultrafilter construction in the twentieth and twenty-first century (so far), and explain the "canonical Boolean algebra" recently developed by Malliaris and Shelah.

We survey some recent results about the order structure of various kinds of ultrafilters. More precisely, we study Rudin-Keisler and Tukey reducibility in classes of selective, stable ordered-union, and P-point ultrafilters. Although these…

This note answers the following question: Is it consistent that for an arbitrary tall summable ideal I_g there exists an I_g-ultrafilter which is not rapid? We show that assuming Martin's Axiom for \sigma-centered posets such ultrafilters…

We prove that if an ultrafilter L is not coherent to a Q-point, then each analytic non-sigma-bounded topological group G admits an increasing chain <G_a : a < b(L)> of its proper subgroups such that: (i) U_{a in b(L)} G_a=G; and $(ii)$ For…

We study classical field theories that do not admit an action principle, implying that their formulation is entirely in terms of equations of motion. In the theories that we consider, supersymmetry is realized on the mass-shell. We will…

After [J.Herzog, D.Popescu, Finite filtrations of modules and shellable multicomplexes, Preprint IMAR no 4/2005, Bucharest, 2005], the shellability of multicomplexes $\Gamma$ is given in terms of some special faces of $\Gamma$ called…

Hindman's Theorem says that every finite coloring of the positive natural numbers has a monochromatic set of finite sums. Ramsey algebras, recently introduced, are structures that satisfy an analogue of Hindman's Theorem. It is an open…

We give a characterizations of Ramsey ultrafilters on $\mathscr P(\omega)$ in terms of functions $f:\omega^n\to\omega$ and their ultrafilter extensions. To do this, we prove that for any partition $\mathcal P$ of $[\omega]^n$ there is a…

We study the definability of ultrafilter bases on $\omega$ in the sense of descriptive set theory. As a main result we show that there is no coanalytic base for a Ramsey ultrafilter, while in $L$ we can construct $\Pi^1_1$ P-point and…

The open well-filtered spaces were introduced by Shen, Xi, Xu and Zhao to answer the problem whether every core-compact well-filtered space is sober. In the current paper we explore further properties of open well-filtered spaces. One of…

A strong antidiamond principle (*c) is shown to be consistent with CH. This principle can be stated as a "P-ideal dichotomy": every P-ideal on omega-1 (i.e. an ideal that is sigma-directed under inclusion modulo finite) either has a closed…

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…

We study the sets of the infinite sentences constructible with a dictionary over a finite alphabet, from the viewpoint of descriptive set theory. Among other things, this gives some true co-analytic sets. The case where the dictionary is…

Generalizing Keisler's notion of regularity for ultrafilters, Taylor introduced degrees of regularity for ideals and showed that a countably complete nonregular ideal on $\omega_1$ must be somewhere $\omega_1$-dense. We prove a dichotomy…

For each closed, positive (1,1)-current \omega on a complex manifold X and each \omega-upper semicontinuous function \phi on X we associate a disc functional and prove that its envelope is equal to the supremum of all…

We define a class of languages of infinite words over infinite alphabets, and the corresponding automata. The automata used for recognition are a generalisation of deterministic Muller automata to the setting of nominal sets. Remarkably,…

We investigate various groupoids associated to an arbitrary inverse semigroup with zero. We show that the groupoid of filters with respect to the natural partial order is isomorphic to the groupoid of germs arising from the standard action…

A module is called absolutely indecomposable if it is directly indecomposable in every generic extension of the universe. We want to show the existence of large abelian groups that are absolutely indecomposable. This will follow from a more…

We introduce a $\sigma$-ideal on $\omega_1 \times \omega_1$ and a filter on the collection of graphs of strictly decreasing partial functions on $\omega_1$ taking values in $\omega_1$. We use them to prove that a certain space is a…
