Bohr compactifications of discrete structures

Joan Hart, Kenneth Kunen (1999)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We prove the following theorem: Given a⊆ω and 1 α < ω 1 C K , if for some η < 1 and all u ∈ WO of length η, a is Σ α 0 ( u ) , then a is Σ α 0 .We use this result to give a new, forcing-free, proof of Leo Harrington’s theorem: Σ 1 1 -Turing-determinacy implies the existence of 0 .

The theory of dual groups

A. Mekler, G. Schlitt (1994)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We study the L , w -theory of sequences of dual groups and give a complete classification of the L , w -elementary classes by finding simple invariants for them. We show that nonstandard models exist.

Embedding partially ordered sets into ω ω

Ilijas Farah (1996)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We investigate some natural questions about the class of posets which can be embedded into ⟨ω,≤*⟩. Our main tool is a simple ccc forcing notion H E which generically embeds a given poset E into ⟨ω,≤*⟩ and does this in a “minimal” way (see Theorems 9.1, 10.1, 6.1 and 9.2).

Properties of the class of measure separable compact spaces

Mirna Džamonja, Kenneth Kunen (1995)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We investigate properties of the class of compact spaces on which every regular Borel measure is separable. This class will be referred to as MS. We discuss some closure properties of MS, and show that some simply defined compact spaces, such as compact ordered spaces or compact scattered spaces, are in MS. Most of the basic theory for regular measures is true just in ZFC. On the other hand, the existence of a compact ordered scattered space which carries a non-separable (non-regular)...

Locally constant functions

Joan Hart, Kenneth Kunen (1996)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let X be a compact Hausdorff space and M a metric space. E 0 ( X , M ) is the set of f ∈ C(X,M) such that there is a dense set of points x ∈ X with f constant on some neighborhood of x. We describe some general classes of X for which E 0 ( X , M ) is all of C(X,M). These include βℕ, any nowhere separable LOTS, and any X such that forcing with the open subsets of X does not add reals. In the case where M is a Banach space, we discuss the properties of E 0 ( X , M ) as a normed linear space. We also build three first countable...

Chains and antichains in Boolean algebras

M. Losada, Stevo Todorčević (2000)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We give an affirmative answer to problem DJ from Fremlin’s list [8] which asks whether M A ω 1 implies that every uncountable Boolean algebra has an uncountable set of pairwise incomparable elements.

On absolute retracts of ω*

A. Bella, A. Błaszczyk, A. Szymański (1994)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

An extremally disconnected space is called an absolute retract in the class of all extremally disconnected spaces if it is a retract of any extremally disconnected compact space in which it can be embedded. The Gleason spaces over dyadic spaces have this property. The main result of this paper says that if a space X of π-weight ω 1 is an absolute retract in the class of all extremally disconnected compact spaces and X is homogeneous with respect to π-weight (i.e. all non-empty open sets...

Nonseparable Radon measures and small compact spaces

Grzegorz Plebanek (1997)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We investigate the problem if every compact space K carrying a Radon measure of Maharam type κ can be continuously mapped onto the Tikhonov cube [ 0 , 1 ] κ (κ being an uncountable cardinal). We show that for κ ≥ cf(κ) ≥ κ this holds if and only if κ is a precaliber of measure algebras. Assuming that there is a family of ω 1 null sets in 2 ω 1 such that every perfect set meets one of them, we construct a compact space showing that the answer to the above problem is “no” for κ = ω. We also give alternative...

Almost all submaximal groups are paracompact and σ-discrete

O. Alas, I. Protasov, M. Tkačenko, V. Tkachuk, R. Wilson, I. Yaschenko (1998)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We prove that any topological group of a non-measurable cardinality is hereditarily paracompact and strongly σ-discrete as soon as it is submaximal. Consequently, such a group is zero-dimensional. Examples of uncountable maximal separable spaces are constructed in ZFC.

Examples of non-shy sets

Randall Dougherty (1994)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Christensen has defined a generalization of the property of being of Haar measure zero to subsets of (abelian) Polish groups which need not be locally compact; a recent paper of Hunt, Sauer, and Yorke defines the same property for Borel subsets of linear spaces, and gives a number of examples and applications. The latter authors use the term “shyness” for this property, and “prevalence” for the complementary property. In the present paper, we construct a number of examples of non-shy...

Cofinal Σ 1 1 and Π 1 1 subsets of ω ω

Gabriel Debs, Jean Saint Raymond (1999)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We study properties of 1 1 and π 1 1 subsets of ω ω that are cofinal relative to the orders ≤ (≤*) of full (eventual) domination. We apply these results to prove that the topological statement “Any compact covering mapping from a Borel space onto a Polish space is inductively perfect” is equivalent to the statement " α ω ω , ω ω L ( α ) is bounded for ≤*".

On absolutely divergent series

Sakaé Fuchino, Heike Mildenberger, Saharon Shelah, Peter Vojtáš (1999)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We show that in the 2 -stage countable support iteration of Mathias forcing over a model of CH the complete Boolean algebra generated by absolutely divergent series under eventual dominance is not isomorphic to the completion of P(ω)/fin. This complements Vojtáš’ result that under c f ( ) = the two algebras are isomorphic [15].

ℳ-rank and meager groups

Ludomir Newelski (1996)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Assume p* is a meager type in a superstable theory T. We investigate definability properties of p*-closure. We prove that if T has < 2 0 countable models then the multiplicity rank ℳ of every type p is finite. We improve Saffe’s conjecture.
