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

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:RQ, such that … Continue reading

Hedetniemi’s conjecture for uncountable graphs

Abstract. It is proved that in Godel’s constructible universe, for every successor cardinal κ, there exist graphs G and H of size and chromatic number κ, for which the tensor product graph G×H is countably chromatic. … Continue reading
