Complicated colorings, revisited
Joint work with Jing Zhang. Abstract. In a paper from 1997, Shelah asked whether
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
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
Knaster and friends II: The C-sequence number
Joint work with Chris Lambie-Hanson. Abstract. Motivated by a characterization of weakly compact cardinals due to Todorcevic, we introduce a new cardinal characteristic, the C-sequence number, which can be seen as a measure of the compactness of a regular uncountable … 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

A forcing axiom deciding the generalized Souslin Hypothesis
Joint work with Chris Lambie-Hanson. Abstract. We derive a forcing axiom from the conjunction of square and diamond, and present a few applications, primary among them being the existence of super-Souslin trees. It follows that for every uncountable cardinal

Reflection on the coloring and chromatic numbers
Joint work with Chris Lambie-Hanson. Abstract. We prove that reflection of the coloring number of graphs is consistent with non-reflection of the chromatic number. Moreover, it is proved that incompactness for the chromatic number of graphs (with arbitrarily large gaps) … Continue reading
