Knaster and friends III: Subadditive colorings
Joint work with Chris Lambie-Hanson. Abstract. We continue our study of strongly unbounded colorings, this time focusing on subadditive maps. In Part I of this series, we showed that, for many pairs of infinite cardinals $\theta < \kappa$, the existence … Continue reading
Strongest transformations
Joint work with Jing Zhang. Abstract. We continue our study of maps transforming high-dimensional complicated objects into squares of stationary sets. Previously, we proved that many such transformations exist in ZFC, and here we address the consistency of the strongest … 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
Knaster and friends I: Closed colorings and precalibers
Joint work with Chris Lambie-Hanson. Abstract. The productivity of the $\kappa$-chain condition, where $\kappa$ is a regular, uncountable cardinal, has been the focus of a great deal of set-theoretic research. In the 1970s, consistent examples of $\kappa$-cc posets whose squares … 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

Chain conditions of products, and weakly compact cardinals
Abstract. The history of productivity of the $\kappa$-chain condition in partial orders, topological spaces, or Boolean algebras is surveyed, and its connection to the set-theoretic notion of a weakly compact cardinal is highlighted. Then, it is proved that for every … Continue reading

Complicated colorings
Abstract. If $\lambda,\kappa$ are regular cardinals, $\lambda>\kappa^+$, and $E^\lambda_{\ge\kappa}$ admits a nonreflecting stationary set, then $\text{Pr}_1(\lambda,\lambda,\lambda,\kappa)$ holds. (Recall that $\text{Pr}_1(\lambda,\lambda,\lambda,\kappa)$ asserts the existence of a coloring $d:[\lambda]^2\rightarrow\lambda$ such that for any family $\mathcal A\subseteq[\lambda]^{<\kappa}$ of size $\lambda$, consisting of pairwise … 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
