Possible cardinalities of maximal abelian subgroups of quotients of permutation groups of the integers

Saharon Shelah, Juris Steprāns (2007)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

If G is a group then the abelian subgroup spectrum of G is defined to be the set of all κ such that there is a maximal abelian subgroup of G of size κ. The cardinal invariant A(G) is defined to be the least uncountable cardinal in the abelian subgroup spectrum of G. The value of A(G) is examined for various groups G which are quotients of certain permutation groups on the integers. An important special case, to which much of the paper is devoted, is the quotient of the full symmetric group by the...

Potential isomorphism and semi-proper trees

Alex Hellsten, Tapani Hyttinen, Saharon Shelah (2002)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We study a notion of potential isomorphism, where two structures are said to be potentially isomorphic if they are isomorphic in some generic extension that preserves stationary sets and does not add new sets of cardinality less than the cardinality of the models. We introduce the notion of weakly semi-proper trees, and note that there is a strong connection between the existence of potentially isomorphic models for a given complete theory and the existence of weakly semi-proper trees. ...

Poznámky k axiomatizaci planimetrie

Zdeněk Halas (2018)

Pokroky matematiky, fyziky a astronomie

Axiomatická metoda je považována za hlavní metodu, kterou je dnes matematika formalizována. Není však jedinou, navíc prošla v průběhu tisíciletí poměrně pestrým vývojem. V tomto příspěvku se pokusíme na základě charakterizace různých typů formalizace matematiky zařadit nejznámější pokusy o axiomatizaci eukleidovské geometrie, zejména Eukleidův, Hilbertův a Birkhoffův.
