We deal with some problems posed by Monk [Mo 1], [Mo 3] and related to cardinal invariants of ultraproducts of Boolean algebras. We also introduce and investigate several new cardinal invariants.

We show that if we add any number of Cohen reals to the ground model then, in the generic extension, a locally compact scattered space has at most ${\left(2^{\aleph ₀}\right)}^V$ levels of size ω. We also give a complete ZFC characterization of the cardinal sequences of regular scattered spaces. Although the classes of regular and of 0-dimensional scattered spaces are different, we prove that they have the same cardinal sequences.

Let (α) denote the class of all cardinal sequences of length α associated with compact scattered spaces (or equivalently, superatomic Boolean algebras). Also put ${}_{\lambda }\left(\alpha \right)=s\in \left(\alpha \right):s\left(0\right)=\lambda =min\left[s\right(\beta ):\beta <\alpha ]$. We show that f ∈ (α) iff for some natural number n there are infinite cardinals $\lambda ₀i>\lambda ₁>...>{\lambda }_{n-1}$ and ordinals $\alpha ₀,...,{\alpha }_{n-1}$ such that $\alpha =\alpha ₀+\cdots +{\alpha }_{n-1}$ and $f=f₀⏜f₁⏜...⏜f_{n-1}$ where each $f_i{\in }_{{\lambda }_i}\left({\alpha }_i\right)$. Under GCH we prove that if α < ω₂ then (i) ${}_{\omega }\left(\alpha \right)=s{\in }^{\alpha }\omega ,\omega ₁:s\left(0\right)=\omega$; (ii) if λ > cf(λ) = ω, ${}_{\lambda }\left(\alpha \right)=s{\in }^{\alpha }\lambda ,\lambda ⁺:s\left(0\right)=\lambda ,s^{-1}\lambda is\omega ₁-closedin\alpha$; (iii) if cf(λ) = ω₁, ${}_{\lambda }\left(\alpha \right)=s{\in }^{\alpha }\lambda ,\lambda ⁺:s\left(0\right)=\lambda ,s^{-1}\lambda is\omega -closedandsuccessor-closedin\alpha$; (iv) if cf(λ) > ω₁, ${}_{\lambda }\left(\alpha \right){=}^{\alpha }\lambda$. This yields a complete characterization of the classes (α) for all α < ω₂,...

The main purpose of this article is to introduce the categorical concept of pullback in Mizar. In the first part of this article we redefine homsets, monomorphisms, epimorpshisms and isomorphisms [7] within a free-object category [1] and it is shown there that ordinal numbers can be considered as categories. Then the pullback is introduced in terms of its universal property and the Pullback Lemma is formalized [15]. In the last part of the article we formalize the pullback of functors [14] and it...

We continue the work of [2] and prove that for λ successor, a λ-categorical theory T in $L_{\kappa *,\omega }$ is μ-categorical for every μ ≤ λ which is above the $\left(2^{LS\left(T\right)}\right)⁺$-beth cardinal.

We assume a theory T in the logic $L_{\kappa \omega }$ is categorical in a cardinal λ κ, and κ is a measurable cardinal. We prove that the class of models of T of cardinality < λ (but ≥ |T|+κ) has the amalgamation property; this is a step toward understanding the character of such classes of models.

We study categoricity in power for reduced models of first order logic without equality.
