AbstractWe prove that WRP and saturation of the ideal NSω1 together imply $\left\{ {a \in [\lambda ]^{\omega _1 } :{\text{cof}}\left( {{\text{sup}}\left( a \right)} \right) = \omega _1 } \right\}$, for every cardinal λ with cof(λ) ≥ω2 .

Many readers will be familiar with the sequence of Catalan numbers {Cn: n ≥ 0} and the formulawith its alternative formThese can be proved by using recurrence relations, generating functions or André's reflection principle. A good reference for all of these methods is Martin Griffiths' book [1].However, none of these approaches strikes me as being naturally combinatorial. A formula such as (1) is often derived by making a list of all the ways of doing something, and then subdividing this list into classes of equal size, so that either one class consists entirely of ‘valid’ cases or there is exactly one ‘valid’ case in each list.

Let Q be a local domain of dimension d with maximal ideal m and let q be an m-primary ideal. Then we define the degree function dq(x) to be the multiplicity of the ideal , where x; is a non-zero element of m. The degree function was introduced by Samuel (5) in the case where q = m. The function dq(x) satisfies the simple identityThe main purpose of this paper is to obtain a formulawhere vi(x) denotes a discrete valuation centred on m (i.e. vi(x) ≥ 0 if x ∈ Q, vi(x) > 0 if x ∈ m) of the field of fractions K of Q. The valuations vi(x) are assumed to have the further property that their residue fields Ki have transcendence degree d − 1 over k = Q/m. The symbol di(q) denotes a non-negative integer associated with vi(x) and q which for fixed q is zero for all save a finite set of valuations vi(x).

We are concerned here with the set theory given in [1], which we call BL (Bernays-Levy). This theory can be given an elegant syntactical presentation which allows most of the usual axioms to be deduced from the reflection principle. However, it is more convenient here to take the usual Von Neumann-Bernays set theory [3] as a starting point, and to regard BL as arising from the addition of the schema where S is the formal definition of satisfaction (with respect to models which are sets) and ┌φ┐ is the Gödel number of φ which has a single free variable X.

Introduction. In this paper we study the (discrete) group ring Γ of a finitely generated torsion free nilpotent group over a field of characteristic zero. We show that if Δ is the ideal of Γ spanned by all elements of the form G − 1, where G ∈ , thenand the only element belonging to Δw for all w is the zero element (cf. (4.3) below).

SummaryThis paper shows that every lattice group G can be densely embedded in a unique laterally complete lattice group H (the lateral completion of G). All reasonable structure properties of G are inherited by H and we have the following relationships between the ideal radical L(G), the distributive radical D(G) and the radical R(G) of G and the corresponding radicals of H. .

General properties of the eigenvalues of Schaper (1983), concerning the continuum of eigenvalues on p. 7, needs correction. The solutions in the distributional sense of the eigenvalue problem (5.3), will be given for two cases. The first case has been solved by A. Lifshitz and E. Fedorov and concerns continuous eigenvalues. In the second case, the solution for the points of accumulation of discrete eigenvalues is discussed.

AbstractWe study Σ1(ω1)-definable sets (i.e., sets that are equal to the collection of all sets satisfying a certain Σ1-formula with parameter ω1 ) in the presence of large cardinals. Our results show that the existence of a Woodin cardinal and a measurable cardinal above it imply that no well-ordering of the reals is Σ1(ω1)-definable, the set of all stationary subsets of ω1 is not Σ1(ω1)-definable and the complement of every Σ1(ω1)-definable Bernstein subset of ${}_{}^{{\omega _1}}\omega _1^{}$ is not Σ1(ω1)-definable. In contrast, we show that the existence of a Woodin cardinal is compatible with the existence of a Σ1(ω1)-definable well-ordering of H(ω2) and the existence of a Δ1(ω1)-definable Bernstein subset of ${}_{}^{{\omega _1}}\omega _1^{}$. We also show that, if there are infinitely many Woodin cardinals and a measurable cardinal above them, then there is no Σ1(ω1)-definable uniformization of the club filter on ω1. Moreover, we prove a perfect set theorem for Σ1(ω1)-definable subsets of ${}_{}^{{\omega _1}}\omega _1^{}$, assuming that there is a measurable cardinal and the nonstationary ideal on ω1 is saturated. The proofs of these results use iterated generic ultrapowers and Woodin’s ℙmax-forcing. Finally, we also prove variants of some of these results for Σ1(κ)-definable subsets of κκ, in the case where κ itself has certain large cardinal properties.

Let R be a commutative ring which may not contain a multiplicative identity. A set of elements a1,…,ak in R will be called an H1-set (this notation is explained in section 1) if for each relation r1a1 + … +rkak = 0 (ri ∈ R) there exist elements sij ∈ R such thatwhere Xl,…,Xk are indeterminates. Any R-sequence is an H1-set, but there do exist H1-sets which are not R-sequences (see section 1). Throughout this note we consider an H1-set a1,…,ak which we suppose to be partitioned into two non-empty sets bl…, br and cl,…, cs. Our main purpose is to show that the ideals B = Rb1 + … + Rbr and C = Rc1 + … + Rcs satisfy Bm ∩ Cn = BmCn for all positive integers m and n (Corollary 1). This generalizes Lemma 2 of Caruth(2) where the result is proved when a1,…, ak is a permutable R-sequence. Our proof involves more detail than is necessary just for this, and we obtain various other properties of H1-sets. In particular we extend the main results of Corsini(3) concerning the symmetric and Rees algebras of a power of the ideal Ra1 +… + Rak (Corollary 3).

Letqbe a prime power, which will be fixed throughout the paper, letkbe a field, and letbe the field withqelements. LetGn(k)be the general linear groupGL(n, k), andSn(k)the special linear groupSL(n, k). The corresponding groups overwill be denoted simply byGnandSn. We may embedGn(k)inGn+1(k)via the mapForming the direct limit of the resulting system, we obtain thestable general linear groupG∞(k) overk.

By P(ω) we denote the Boolean algebra of all subsets of the set ω of natural numbers. We identify each natural number with the set of its predecessors and define: the ideal of sets of density zero, and the ideal of sets of logarithmic density zero.
