Suppose $\kappa$ is a regular cardinal and $\bar a=\langle \mu_i: i<\kappa \rangle$ is a non-decreasing sequence of regular cardinals. We study the set of possible cofinalities of cuts Pcut$(\bar a)=\{(\lambda_1, \lambda_2):$ for some…
We investigate the class of models of a general dependent theory. We continue math.LO/0702292 in particular investigating so called "decomposition of types"; thesis is that what holds for stable theory and for Th(Q,<) hold for dependent…
Assuming the existence of a strong cardinal $\kappa$, a weakly compact cardinal $\lambda$ above it and $\gamma > \lambda,$ we force a generic extension in which $\kappa$ is a singular strong limit cardinal of any given cofinality $\delta$,…
We provide a model theoretical and tree property like characterization of $\lambda$-$\Pi^1_1$-subcompactness and supercompactness. We explore the behaviour of those combinatorial principles at accessible cardinals.
Using Koszmider's strongly unbounded functions, we show the following consistency result: Suppose that $\kappa,\lambda$ are infinite cardinals such that $\kappa^{+++} \leq \lambda$, $\kappa^{<\kappa}=\kappa$ and $2^{\kappa}= \kappa^+$, and…
An abstract theory of ultradifferentiable sheafs is developed. Moreover, various applications to the theory of linear partial differential equations, differential geometry and, in particular, CR geometry are discussed.
We construct Boolean Algebras answering questions of Monk on cardinal invariants. The results are proved in ZFC (rather than giving consistency results). We deal with the existence of superatomic Boolean Algebras with ``few automorphisms'',…
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 characterize the compactness properties of the product of \lambda\ copies of the space \omega\ with the discrete topology, dealing in particular with the case \lambda\ singular, using regular and uniform ultrafilters, infinitary…
We consider natural cardinal invariants hm_n and prove several duality theorems, saying roughly: if I is a suitably definable ideal and provably cov(I)>=hm_n, then non(I) is provably small. The proofs integrate the determinacy theory,…
We characterize exactly the compactness properties of the product of \kappa\ copies of the space \omega\ with the discrete topology. The characterization involves uniform ultrafilters, infinitary languages, and the existence of nonstandard…
In math.AC/9608214 it was shown that fields of generalized power series cannot admit an exponential function. In this paper, we construct fields of generalized power series with bounded support which admit an exponential. We give a natural…
This paper is concerned with variational continuation of branches of solutions for nonlinear boundary value problems, which involve the p-Laplacian, the indefinite nonlinearity, and depend on the real parameter $\lambda$. A special focus is…
In this article we investigate charged particles in gauge theories. After reviewing the physical and theoretical problems, a method to construct charged particles is presented. Explicit solutions are found in the Abelian theory and a…
If cf(kappa) = kappa, kappa^+< cf(lambda) = \lambda, then there is a stationary subset S of {delta<lambda:cf(delta)=kappa} in I[lambda]. Moreover, we can find <C_delta :delta in S>, C_delta a club of lambda, otp(C_delta)=kappa, guessing…
We develop a version of Cichon's diagram for cardinal invariants on the generalized Cantor space 2^kappa or the generalized Baire space kappa^kappa where kappa is an uncountable regular cardinal. For strongly inaccessible kappa, many of the…
We investigate a notion called uniqueness in power kappa that is akin to categoricity in power kappa, but is based on the cardinality of the generating sets of models instead of on the cardinality of their universes. The notion is quite…
We investigate the unbalanced ordinary partition relations of the form $\lambda \rightarrow {(\lambda, \alpha)}^{2}$ for various values of the cardinal $\lambda$ and the ordinal $\alpha$. For example, we show that for every infinite…
It is shown that if T is stable unsuperstable, and aleph_1< lambda =cf(lambda)< 2^{aleph_0}, or 2^{aleph_0} < mu^+< lambda =cf(lambda)< mu^{aleph_0} then T has no universal model in cardinality lambda, and if e.g. aleph_omega < 2^{aleph_0}…
In this work we provide alternative formulations of the concepts of lambda theory and extensional theory without introducing the notion of substitution and the sets of all, free and bound variables occurring in a term. We also clarify the…
