A counterexample related to a theorem of Komjáth and Weiss
Joint work with Rodrigo Rey Carvalho. Abstract. In a paper from 1987, Komjath and Weiss proved that for every regular topological space $X$ of character less than $\mathfrak b$, if $X\rightarrow(\text{top }{\omega+1})^1_\omega$, then $X\rightarrow(\text{top }{\alpha})^1_\omega$ for all $\alpha<\omega_1$. In addition, … Continue reading

A Shelah group in ZFC
Joint work with Márk Poór. Abstract. In a paper from 1980, Shelah constructed an uncountable group all of whose proper subgroups are countable. Assuming the continuum hypothesis, he constructed an uncountable group $G$ that moreover admits an integer $n$ satisfying … Continue reading

Was Ulam right? II: Small width and general ideals
Joint work with Tanmay Inamdar. Abstract. We continue our study of Sierpinski-type colourings. In contrast to the prequel paper, we focus here on colourings for ideals stratified by their completeness degree. In particular, improving upon Ulam’s theorem and its extension … Continue reading

Was Ulam right? I: Basic theory and subnormal ideals
Joint work with Tanmay Inamdar. Abstract. We introduce various coloring principles which generalize the so-called onto mapping principle of Sierpinski to larger cardinals and general ideals. We prove that these principles capture the notion of an Ulam matrix and allow … Continue reading
Ramsey theory over partitions III: Strongly Luzin sets and partition relations
Joint work with Menachem Kojman and Juris Steprāns. Abstract. The strongest type of coloring of pairs of countable ordinals, gotten by Todorcevic from a strongly Luzin set, is shown to be equivalent to the existence of a nonmeager set of … Continue reading
Ramsey theory over partitions I: Positive Ramsey relations from forcing axioms
Joint work with Menachem Kojman and Juris Steprāns. Abstract. In this series of papers, we advance Ramsey theory of colorings over partitions. In this part, a correspondence between anti-Ramsey properties of partitions and chain conditions of the natural forcing notions … Continue reading

Transformations of the transfinite plane
Joint work with Jing Zhang. Abstract. We study the existence of transformations of the transfinite plane that allow one to reduce Ramsey-theoretic statements concerning uncountable Abelian groups into classical partition relations for uncountable cardinals. To exemplify: we prove that for every … Continue reading
Strong failures of higher analogs of Hindman’s Theorem
Joint work with David J. Fernández Bretón. Abstract. We show that various analogs of Hindman’s Theorem fail in a strong sense when one attempts to obtain uncountable monochromatic sets: Theorem 1. There exists a colouring $c:\mathbb R\rightarrow\mathbb Q$, such that … Continue reading

Rectangular square-bracket operation for successor of regular cardinals
Joint work with Stevo Todorcevic. Extended Abstract: Consider the coloring statement $\lambda^+\nrightarrow[\lambda^+;\lambda^+]^2_{\lambda^+}$ for a given regular cardinal $\lambda$: In 1990, Shelah proved the above for $\lambda>2^{\aleph_0}$; In 1991, Shelah proved the above for $\lambda>\aleph_1$; In 1997, Shelah proved the above … Continue reading
Transforming rectangles into squares, with applications to strong colorings
Abstract: It is proved that every singular cardinal $\lambda$ admits a function $\textbf{rts}:[\lambda^+]^2\rightarrow[\lambda^+]^2$ that transforms rectangles into squares. That is, whenever $A,B$ are cofinal subsets of $\lambda^+$, we have $\textbf{rts}[A\circledast B]\supseteq C\circledast C$, for some cofinal subset $C\subseteq\lambda^+$. As a … Continue reading
