In the original version of this paper, we assume a theory $T$ that the logic $\mathbb L_{\kappa, \aleph_{0}}$ is categorical in a cardinal $\lambda > \kappa$, and $\kappa$ is a measurable cardinal. There we prove that the class of model of…

The Castelnuovo-Schottky theorem of Pareschi-Popa characterizes Jacobians, among indecomposable principally polarized abelian varieties of dimension g, by the existence of g+2 points in general position with respect to the principal…

We give a survey of the known connections between regularity conditions and amenability conditions in the setting of uniform algebras. For a uniform algebra $A$ we consider the set, $A_{lc}$, of functions in $A$ which are locally constant…

We introduce a new class of ultrafilters which generalizes the well-known class of simple $P$-point ultrafilters. We prove that for any well-founded $\sigma$-directed partial order $\mathbb{D}$ there is a mild forcing extension where there…

We study the relationship between two measures of Boolean functions; \emph{algebraic thickness} and \emph{normality}. For a function $f$, the algebraic thickness is a variant of the \emph{sparsity}, the number of nonzero coefficients in the…

Given a strongly inaccessible cardinal $\lambda$, we study the Fra\"iss\'e class of all Boolean algebras of size $<\lambda$, together with regular embeddings. We prove that this is indeed a Fra\"iss\'eclass, and its limit has the same…

Let kappa be an uncountable cardinal and the edges of a complete graph with kappa vertices be colored with aleph_0 colors. For kappa >2^{aleph_0} the Erd\H{o}s-Rado theorem implies that there is an infinite monochromatic subgraph. However,…

For I a proper, countably complete ideal on P(X) for some set X, can the quotient Boolean algebra P(X)/I be complete? This question was raised by Sikorski in 1949. By a simple projection argument as for measurable cardinals, it can be…

Let $G$ be a locally compact group, $A_p (G)$ be the Herz algebra of $G$ associated with $1 <p< \infty$. We show that $A_p (G)$ is Arens regular if and only if $G$ is a discrete group and for each countable subgroup $H$ of $G$, $A_p (H)$ is…

A space X is kappa-resolvable (resp. almost kappa-resolvable) if it contains kappa dense sets that are pairwise disjoint (resp. almost disjoint over the ideal of nowhere dense subsets of X). Answering a problem raised by Juhasz, Soukup, and…

It is shown that the polynomial $\lambda(t) = {\rm Tr}[(A + tB)^p]$ has nonnegative coefficients when $p \leq 7$ and A and B are any two complex positive semidefinite $n \times n$ matrices with arbitrary $n$. This proofs a general…

A Hausdorff topological group G is minimal if every continuous isomorphism f : G --> H between G and a Hausdorff topological group H is open. Clearly, every compact Hausdorff group is minimal. It is well known that every infinite compact…

We show that if $\kappa < \aleph_\omega$ Cohen reals are added to a model of $\mathsf{CH}$, then there are nontrivial automorphisms of $\mathcal P(\omega)/\mathrm{Fin}$ in the extension. Under some further hypotheses on the ground model,…

If G is a locally essential subgroup of a compact abelian group K, then: (i) t(G)=w(G)=w(K), where t(G) is the tightness of G; (ii) if G is radial, then K must be metrizable; (iii) G contains a super-sequence S converging to 0 such that…

This is the first in a series of two papers that study monogenicity of number rings from a moduli-theoretic perspective. Given an extension of algebras $B/A$, when is $B$ generated by a single element $\theta \in B$ over $A$? In this paper,…

Modulo the existence of large cardinals, there is a model of set theory in which for some set $B$ of regular cardinals, the sequence $\langle \text{pcf}^\alpha(B): \alpha \in \text{Ord} \rangle$ is strictly increasing. The result answers a…

The algebra B of bicomplex numbers is viewed as a complexification of the Archimedean f-algebra of hyperbolic numbers D. This lattice-theoretic approach allows us to establish new properties of the so-called D-norms. In particular, we show…

We solve a well--known problem in the theory of compact scattered spaces and superatomic boolean algebras by showing that, under GCH and for each regular cardinal $\kappa \geq \omega$, there is a poset $\mathcal P_\kappa$ preserving all…

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…

For a ring R, denote by Spec^R_kappa(Gamma) the kappa-spectrum of the Gamma-invariant of strongly uniform right R-modules. Recent realization techniques of Goodearl and Wehrung show that Spec^R_{aleph_1}(Gamma) is full for suitable von…
