A Hanf number for saturation and omission

John T. Baldwin, Saharon Shelah (2011)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Suppose t = (T,T₁,p) is a triple of two countable theories T ⊆ T₁ in vocabularies τ ⊂ τ₁ and a τ₁-type p over the empty set. We show that the Hanf number for the property ’there is a model M₁ of T₁ which omits p, but M₁ ↾ τ is saturated’ is essentially equal to the Löwenheim number of second order logic. In Section 4 we make exact computations of these Hanf numbers and note some distinctions between ’first order’ and ’second order quantification’. In particular, we show that if κ is...

Provident sets and rudimentary set forcing

A. R. D. Mathias (2015)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Using the theory of rudimentary recursion and provident sets expounded in [MB], we give a treatment of set forcing appropriate for working over models of a theory PROVI which may plausibly claim to be the weakest set theory supporting a smooth theory of set forcing, and of which the minimal model is Jensen’s J ω . Much of the development is rudimentary or at worst given by rudimentary recursions with parameter the notion of forcing under consideration. Our development eschews the power...

A characterization of almost continuity and weak continuity

Chrisostomos Petalas, Theodoros Vidalis (2004)

Acta Universitatis Palackianae Olomucensis. Facultas Rerum Naturalium. Mathematica

Similarity:

It is well known that a function f from a space X into a space Y is continuous if and only if, for every set K in X the image of the closure of K under f is a subset of the closure of the image of it. In this paper we characterize almost continuity and weak continuity by proving similar relations for the subsets K of X .

The gap between I₃ and the wholeness axiom

Paul Corazza (2003)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

∃κI₃(κ) is the assertion that there is an elementary embedding i : V λ V λ with critical point below λ, and with λ a limit. The Wholeness Axiom, or WA, asserts that there is a nontrivial elementary embedding j: V → V; WA is formulated in the language ∈,j and has as axioms an Elementarity schema, which asserts that j is elementary; a Critical Point axiom, which asserts that there is a least ordinal moved by j; and includes every instance of the Separation schema for j-formulas. Because no instance...

On ω 2 -saturated families

Lajos Soukup (1991)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

If there is no inner model with measurable cardinals, then for each cardinal λ there is an almost disjoint family 𝒜 λ of countable subsets of λ such that every subset of λ with order type ω 2 contains an element of 𝒜 λ .

The almost Daugavet property and translation-invariant subspaces

Simon Lücking (2014)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let G be a metrizable, compact abelian group and let Λ be a subset of its dual group Ĝ. We show that C Λ ( G ) has the almost Daugavet property if and only if Λ is an infinite set, and that L ¹ Λ ( G ) has the almost Daugavet property if and only if Λ is not a Λ(1) set.

Comparing the closed almost disjointness and dominating numbers

Dilip Raghavan, Saharon Shelah (2012)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We prove that if there is a dominating family of size ℵ₁, then there are ℵ₁ many compact subsets of ω ω whose union is a maximal almost disjoint family of functions that is also maximal with respect to infinite partial functions.

A note on an approximative scheme of finding almost homoclinic solutions for Newtonian systems

Robert Krawczyk (2014)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

In this work we will be concerned with the existence of almost homoclinic solutions for a Newtonian system q ̈ + q V ( t , q ) = f ( t ) , where t ∈ ℝ, q ∈ ℝⁿ. It is assumed that a potential V: ℝ × ℝⁿ → ℝ is C¹-smooth and its gradient map q V : × is bounded with respect to t. Moreover, a forcing term f: ℝ → ℝⁿ is continuous, bounded and square integrable. We will show that the approximative scheme due to J. Janczewska (see [J2]) for a time periodic potential extends to our case.

Induced almost continuous functions on hyperspaces

Alejandro Illanes (2006)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

For a metric continuum X, let C(X) (resp., 2 X ) be the hyperspace of subcontinua (resp., nonempty closed subsets) of X. Let f: X → Y be an almost continuous function. Let C(f): C(X) → C(Y) and 2 f : 2 X 2 Y be the induced functions given by C ( f ) ( A ) = c l Y ( f ( A ) ) and 2 f ( A ) = c l Y ( f ( A ) ) . In this paper, we prove that: • If 2 f is almost continuous, then f is continuous. • If C(f) is almost continuous and X is locally connected, then f is continuous. • If X is not locally connected, then there exists an almost continuous function f: X → [0,1]...

Asymmetric tie-points and almost clopen subsets of *

Alan S. Dow, Saharon Shelah (2018)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

A tie-point of compact space is analogous to a cut-point: the complement of the point falls apart into two relatively clopen non-compact subsets. We review some of the many consistency results that have depended on the construction of tie-points of * . One especially important application, due to Veličković, was to the existence of nontrivial involutions on * . A tie-point of * has been called symmetric if it is the unique fixed point of an involution. We define the notion of an almost...

Uncountable cardinals have the same monadic ∀₁¹ positive theory over large sets

Athanassios Tzouvaras (2004)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We show that uncountable cardinals are indistinguishable by sentences of the monadic second-order language of order of the form (∀X)ϕ(X) and (∃X)ϕ(X), for ϕ positive in X and containing no set-quantifiers, when the set variables range over large (= cofinal) subsets of the cardinals. This strengthens the result of Doner-Mostowski-Tarski [3] that (κ,∈), (λ,∈) are elementarily equivalent when κ, λ are uncountable. It follows that we can consistently postulate that the structures ( 2 κ , [ 2 κ ] > κ , < ) , ( 2 λ , [ 2 λ ] > λ , < ) are...

Maximal almost disjoint families of functions

Dilip Raghavan (2009)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We study maximal almost disjoint (MAD) families of functions in ω ω that satisfy certain strong combinatorial properties. In particular, we study the notions of strongly and very MAD families of functions. We introduce and study a hierarchy of combinatorial properties lying between strong MADness and very MADness. Proving a conjecture of Brendle, we show that if c o v ( ) < , then there no very MAD families. We answer a question of Kastermans by constructing a strongly MAD family from = . Next, we...
