We study $\Sigma_1(\omega_1)$-definable sets (i.e. sets that are equal to the collection of all sets satisfying a certain $\Sigma_1$-formula with parameter $\omega_1$) in the presence of large cardinals. Our results show that the existence…

The uncountability of $\mathbb{R}$ is one of its most basic properties, known far outside of mathematics. Cantor's 1874 proof of the uncountability of $\mathbb{R}$ even appears in the very first paper on set theory, i.e. a historical…

Suppose there is a Reinhardt cardinal. Then (1) $M_n(X)$ exists and is fully iterable (above $X$) for every transitive set $X$ and every $n<\omega$ (here $M_n(X)$ denotes the canonical minimal proper class inner model containing $X$ and…

We investigate the provability of classical combinatorial theorems in ZF. Using combinatorial arguments, we establish the following results for each infinite cardinal ${\kappa}\in On$, (1) ${\kappa}^+\to ({\kappa},{\omega}+1)$, (2) any…

The study of inner models was initiated by G\"odel's analysis of the constructible universe. Later, the study of canonical inner models with large cardinals, e.g., measurable cardinals, strong cardinals or Woodin cardinals, was pioneered by…

We investigate an extension of ZFC set theory (in an extended language) that stipulates the existence of a proper class of indiscernibles over the universe. One of the main results of the paper shows that the purely set-theoretical…

Let $M$ be a short extender mouse. We prove that if $E\in M$ and $M$ satisfies "$E$ is a countably complete short extender whose support is a cardinal $\theta$ and $\mathcal{H}_\theta\subseteq\mathrm{Ult}(V,E)$", then $E$ is in the extender…

We show that the analogues of the Hamkins embedding theorems, proved for the countable models of set theory, do not hold when extended to the uncountable realm of $\omega_1$-like models of set theory. Specifically, under the $\diamondsuit$…

Assume ZFC. Let $\kappa$ be a cardinal. Recall that a ${<\kappa}$-ground is a transitive proper class $W$ modelling ZFC such that $V$ is a generic extension of $W$ via a forcing $\mathbb{P}\in W$ of cardinality ${<\kappa}$, and the…

Given an uncountable cardinal $\kappa$, we consider the question of whether subsets of the power set of $\kappa$ that are usually constructed with the help of the Axiom of Choice are definable by $\Sigma_1$-formulas that only use the…

There exists a family $\{B_{\alpha}\}_{\alpha<\omega_1}$ of sets of countable ordinals such that o $\max B_{\alpha}=\alpha$, o if $\alpha\in B_{\beta}$ then $B_{\alpha}\subseteq B_{\beta}$, o if $\lambda\leq \alpha$ and $\lambda$ is a limit…

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…

Suppose that there is a measurable cardinal. If \aleph_\omega is a strong limit cardinal, but the power of \aleph_\omega is bigger than \aleph_{\omega_1}, then there is an inner model with a Woodin cardinal. Modulo the need of the…

We show that it is consistent relative to ZF, that there is no well-ordering of $\mathbb{R}$ while a wide class of special sets of reals such as Hamel bases, transcendence bases, Vitali sets or Bernstein sets exists. To be more precise, we…

An inaccessible cardinal kappa is supercompact when (kappa, lambda)-ITP holds for all lambda greater than or equal to kappa. We prove that if there is a model of ZFC with infinitely many supercompact cardinals, then there is a model of ZFC…

Higher order set theory has been a topic of interest for some time, with recent efforts focused on the strength of second order set theories [KW16]. In this paper we strive to present one 'theory of collections' that allows for a formal…

We consider the following problem for various infinite time machines. If a real is computable relative to large set of oracles such as a set of full measure or just of positive measure, a comeager set, or a nonmeager Borel set, is it…

We try to build, provably in ZFC, for a first order T a model in which any isomorphism between two Boolean algebras is definable. The problem, compared to [Sh:384], is with pseudo-finite Boolean algebras. A side benefit is that we do not…

A Q-set is an uncountable set of reals all of whose subsets are relative $G_\delta$ sets. We prove that, for an arbitrary uncountable cardinal kappa, there is consistently a Q-set of size $\kappa$ whose square is not Q. This answers a…

We show that the consistency of $\mathrm{ZF} + \mathrm{AD}_{\mathbb{R}} + ``\Theta$ is measurable$"$ implies the consistency of $\mathrm{ZF} +``\Theta$ is the least strongly regular cardinal and the least measurable cardinal$"$ + $``$all…
