Partition relations for trees I: Incomparable trees
Joint work with Tanmay Inamdar. Abstract. Todorcevic proved that Martin’s axiom implies that every two coherent $\aleph_1$-Aronszajn trees are comparable. Here, from cardinal arithmetic assumptions, we obtain the failure of the analogous statement for higher trees. In particular, for every … Continue reading

Was Ulam right? III: Indecomposable ideals
Joint work with Tanmay Inamdar. Abstract. We continue our study of Ulam’s measure problem. In contrast to our previous works, we shift our focus from measures stratified by their additivity, to measures stratified by their indecomposability. The breakthrough here is … Continue reading
A new model for all C-sequences are trivial
Joint work with Zhixing You and Jiachen Yuan. Abstract. We construct a model in which all C-sequences are trivial, yet there exists a $\kappa$-Souslin tree with full vanishing levels. This answers a question from a previous paper, and provides an … Continue reading

Walks on uncountable ordinals and non-structure theorems for higher Aronszajn lines
Joint work with Tanmay Inamdar. Abstract. We investigate global structural properties of linear orders of a fixed infinite size. It is classical that the countable linear orders and the continuum-sized orders exhibit contrasting behaviours. Modern results show that strong extensions … Continue reading
