Definability of small puncture sets

Andrés Eduardo Caicedo, John Daniel Clemens, Clinton Taylor Conley, Benjamin David Miller (2011)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We characterize the class of definable families of countable sets for which there is a single countable definable set intersecting every element of the family.

Definability within structures related to Pascal’s triangle modulo an integer

Alexis Bès, Ivan Korec (1998)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Let Sq denote the set of squares, and let S Q n be the squaring function restricted to powers of n; let ⊥ denote the coprimeness relation. Let B n ( x , y ) = ( x + y x ) M O D n . For every integer n ≥ 2 addition and multiplication are definable in the structures ⟨ℕ; Bn,⊥⟩ and ⟨ℕ; Bn,Sq⟩; thus their elementary theories are undecidable. On the other hand, for every prime p the elementary theory of ⟨ℕ; Bp,SQp⟩ is decidable.

Definable Davies' theorem

Asger Törnquist, William Weiss (2009)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We prove the following descriptive set-theoretic analogue of a theorem of R. O. Davies: Every Σ¹₂ function f:ℝ × ℝ → ℝ can be represented as a sum of rectangular Σ¹₂ functions if and only if all reals are constructible.

Definable hereditary families in the projective hierarchy

R. Barua, V. Srivatsa (1992)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We show that if ℱ is a hereditary family of subsets of ω ω satisfying certain definable conditions, then the Δ 1 1 reals are precisely the reals α such that β : α Δ 1 1 ( β ) . This generalizes the results for measure and category. Appropriate generalization to the higher levels of the projective hierarchy is obtained under Projective Determinacy. Application of this result to the Q 2 n + 1 -encodable reals is also shown.

Definable orthogonality classes in accessible categories are small

Joan Bagaria, Carles Casacuberta, A. R. D. Mathias, Jiří Rosický (2015)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

We lower substantially the strength of the assumptions needed for the validity of certain results in category theory and homotopy theory which were known to follow from Vopěnka’s principle. We prove that the necessary large-cardinal hypotheses depend on the complexity of the formulas defining the given classes, in the sense of the Lévy hierarchy. For example, the statement that, for a class 𝒮 of morphisms in a locally presentable category 𝒞 of structures, the orthogonal class of objects is a small-orthogonality...

Definably complete Baire structures

Antongiulio Fornasiero, Tamara Servi (2010)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We consider definably complete Baire expansions of ordered fields: every definable subset of the domain of the structure has a supremum and the domain cannot be written as the union of a definable increasing family of nowhere dense sets. Every expansion of the real field is definably complete and Baire, and so is every o-minimal expansion of a field. Moreover, unlike the o-minimal case, the structures considered form an axiomatizable class. In this context we prove a version of the Kuratowski-Ulam...

Definition and Properties of Direct Sum Decomposition of Groups1

Kazuhisa Nakasho, Hiroshi Yamazaki, Hiroyuki Okazaki, Yasunari Shidama (2015)

Formalized Mathematics

In this article, direct sum decomposition of group is mainly discussed. In the second section, support of element of direct product group is defined and its properties are formalized. It is formalized here that an element of direct product group belongs to its direct sum if and only if support of the element is finite. In the third section, product map and sum map are prepared. In the fourth section, internal and external direct sum are defined. In the last section, an equivalent form of internal...
