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
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

Complicated colorings, revisited
Joint work with Jing Zhang. Abstract. In a paper from 1997, Shelah asked whether $Pr_1(\lambda^+,\lambda^+,\lambda^+,\lambda)$ holds for every inaccessible cardinal $\lambda$. Here, we prove that an affirmative answer follows from $\square(\lambda^+)$. Furthermore, we establish that for every pair $\chi<\kappa$ of … 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

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
11th Young Set Theory Workshop, June 2018
I gave a 4-lecture tutorial at the 11th Young Set Theory Workshop, Lausanne, June 2018. Title: In praise of C-sequences. Abstract. Ulam and Solovay showed that any stationary set may be split into two. Is it also the case that … Continue reading

6th European Set Theory Conference, July 2017
I gave a 3-lecture tutorial at the 6th European Set Theory Conference in Budapest, July 2017. Title: Strong colorings and their applications. Abstract. Consider the following questions. Is the product of two $\kappa$-cc partial orders again $\kappa$-cc? Does there exist … Continue reading

Distributive Aronszajn trees
Joint work with Ari Meir Brodsky. Abstract. Ben-David and Shelah proved that if $\lambda$ is a singular strong-limit cardinal and $2^\lambda=\lambda^+$, then $\square^*_\lambda$ entails the existence of a $\lambda$-distributive $\lambda^+$-Aronszajn tree. Here, it is proved that the same conclusion remains … Continue reading
Square with built-in diamond-plus
Joint work with Ralf Schindler. Abstract. We formulate combinatorial principles that combine the square principle with various strong forms of diamond, and prove that the strongest amongst them holds in $L$ for every infinite cardinal. As an application, we prove 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
