The n m -propositional calculus

Carlos Gallardo, Alicia Ziliani (2015)

Mathematica Bohemica

T. Almada and J. Vaz de Carvalho (2001) stated the problem to investigate if these Łukasiewicz algebras are algebras of some logic system. In this article an affirmative answer is given and the n m -propositional calculus, denoted by n m , is introduced in terms of the binary connectives (implication), (standard implication), (conjunction), (disjunction) and the unary ones f (negation) and D i , 1 i n - 1 (generalized Moisil operators). It is proved that n m belongs to the class of standard systems of implicative...

The nonexistence of robust codes for subsets of ω₁

David Asperó (2005)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Several results are presented concerning the existence or nonexistence, for a subset S of ω₁, of a real r which works as a robust code for S with respect to a given sequence S α : α < ω of pairwise disjoint stationary subsets of ω₁, where “robustness” of r as a code may either mean that S L [ r , S * α : α < ω ] whenever each S * α is equal to S α modulo nonstationary changes, or may have the weaker meaning that S L [ r , S α C : α < ω ] for every club C ⊆ ω₁. Variants of the above theme are also considered which result when the requirement that S gets exactly...

The null ideal restricted to some non-null set may be ℵ₁-saturated

Saharon Shelah (2003)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Our main result is that possibly some non-null set of reals cannot be divided into uncountably many non-null sets. We also deal with a non-null set of real, the graph of any function from which is null, and deal with our iterations somewhat more generally.

The number of countable isomorphism types of complete extensions of the theory of Boolean algebras

Paul Iverson (1991)

Colloquium Mathematicae

There is a conjecture of Vaught [17] which states: Without The Generalized Continuum Hypothesis one can prove the existence of a complete theory with exactly ω 1 nonisomorphic, denumerable models. In this paper we show that there is no such theory in the class of complete extensions of the theory of Boolean algebras. More precisely, any complete extension of the theory of Boolean algebras has either 1 or 2 ω nonisomorphic, countable models. Thus we answer this conjecture in the negative for any complete...

The number of L κ -equivalent nonisomorphic models for κ weakly compact

Saharon Shelah, Pauli Vaisanen (2002)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

For a cardinal κ and a model M of cardinality κ let No(M) denote the number of nonisomorphic models of cardinality κ which are L , κ -equivalent to M. We prove that for κ a weakly compact cardinal, the question of the possible values of No(M) for models M of cardinality κ is equivalent to the question of the possible numbers of equivalence classes of equivalence relations which are Σ¹₁-definable over V κ . By [SV] it is possible to have a generic extension where the possible numbers of equivalence classes...
