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

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

Ramsey theory over partitions II: Negative Ramsey relations and pump-up theorems

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, we concentrate on anti-Ramsey relations, or, as they are better known, strong colorings, and in … 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

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
