A class of higher inductive types in Zermelo‐Fraenkel set theory [PDF]

open access: hybridMathematical Logic Quarterly, Volume 68, Issue 1, Page 118-127, February 2022., 2022
Abstract We define a class of higher inductive types that can be constructed in the category of sets under the assumptions of Zermelo‐Fraenkel set theory without the axiom of choice or the existence of uncountable regular cardinals. This class includes the example of unordered trees of any arity.

Paraconsistent and Paracomplete Zermelo-Fraenkel Set Theory [PDF]

open access: greenThe Review of Symbolic Logic, 2022
We present a novel treatment of set theory in a four-valued paraconsistent and paracomplete logic, i.e., a logic in which propositions can be both true and false, and neither true nor false.

The continuum hypothesis: Its independence from Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory and impact on mathematical foundations [PDF]

open access: hybridTheoretical and Natural Science, 2023
The Continuum Hypothesis, originally posited by the pioneering mathematician Georg Cantor in the latter part of the 19th century, stands as a cornerstone inquiry in the realm of set theory.

A positive function with vanishing Lebesgue integral in Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory [PDF]

open access: green, 2017
Can a positive function on R have zero Lebesgue integral? It depends on how much choice one has.

A Nominalist Alternative to Reference by Abstraction. [PDF]

open access: yesTheoria, 2023
Abstract In his recent book Thin Objects, Øystein Linnebo (2018) argues for the existence of a hierarchy of abstract objects, sufficient to model ZFC, via a novel and highly interesting argument that relies on a process called dynamic abstraction. This paper presents a way for a nominalist, someone opposed to the existence of abstract objects, to avoid

CONTRADICTIONS WITHIN ZERMELO–FRAENKEL SET THEORY WITH AXIOM OF CHOICE

open access: diamond, 2020
By using a counterexample to the known equivalent of the axiom of choice (Krull’s theorem about maximal ideal existence) contradictions within Zermelo–Fraenkel set theory with axiom of choice was shown.

Zermelo–Fraenkel Set Theory

open access: goldSet Theory and Foundations of Mathematics: An Introduction to Mathematical Logic, 2020
A major question asked during the development of ZF was what system of logic should be used as its framework. Logicians eventually agreed that the framework itself should not depend very much on set-theoretic reasoning.

When cardinals determine the power set: inner models and Härtig quantifier logic

open access: yesMathematical Logic Quarterly, Volume 69, Issue 4, Page 460-471, November 2023., 2023
Abstract We show that the predicate “x is the power set of y” is Σ1(Card)$\Sigma _1(\operatorname{Card})$‐definable, if V = L[E] is an extender model constructed from a coherent sequences of extenders, provided that there is no inner model with a Woodin cardinal. Here Card$\operatorname{Card}$ is a predicate true of just the infinite cardinals.

Thin Mereological Sums, Abstraction, and Interpretational Modalities

open access: yesTheoria, Volume 89, Issue 3, Page 338-355, June 2023., 2023
Abstract Some tools introduced by Linnebo to show that mathematical entities are thin objects can also be applied to non‐mathematical entities, which have been thought to be thin as well for a variety of reasons. In this paper, I discuss some difficulties and opportunities concerning the application of abstraction and interpretational modalities to ...
