The PCF Theorem Revisited
نویسنده
چکیده
i<κ λi/I, where κ < mini<κ λi. Here we prove this theorem under weaker assumptions such as wsat(I) < mini<κ λi, where wsat(I) is the minimal θ such that κ cannot be delivered to θ sets / ∈ I (or even slightly weaker condition). We also look at the existence of exact upper bounds relative to <I (<I −eub) as well as cardinalities of reduced products and the cardinals TD(λ). Finally we apply this to the problem of the depth of ultraproducts (and reduced products) of Boolean algebras.

A Quick Proof of the Pcf Theorem
The following note provide a short proof of Shelah’s pcf theorem via the new Theorem 7 below. The following theorems are used: (1) Shelah’s theorem on the existence of stationary sets in I[λ]; (2) Shelah’s trichotomy theorem; (3) the characterization [2] of sequences with exact upper bounds. A proof of Shelah’s trichotomy theorem is in [3],II,1.2 and a shorter proof is in the appendix to [2]. T...
متن کاملDesign of low-dispersion fractal photonic crystal fiber
In this paper, a fractal photonic crystal fiber (F-PCF) based on the 1st iteration of Koch fractal configuration for optical communication systems is presented. Complex structure of fractal shape is build up through replication of a base shape. Nowadays, fractal shapes are used widely in antenna topics and its usage in PCF has not been investigated yet. The purpose of this research is to compar...
متن کاملIntegration in Real PCF
Real PCF is an extension of the programming language PCF with a data type for real numbers. Although a Real PCF definable real number cannot be computed in finitely many steps, it is possible to compute an arbitrarily small rational interval containing the real number in a sufficiently large number of steps. Based on a domain-theoretic approach to integration, we show how to define integration ...
متن کاملFull Abstraction for PCF
An intensional model for the programming language PCF is described, in which the types of PCF are interpreted by games, and the terms by certain “history-free” strategies. This model is shown to capture definability in PCF. More precisely, every compact strategy in the model is definable in a certain simple extension of PCF. We then introduce an intrinsic preorder on strategies, and show that i...
متن کاملPhotonic Crystal Fiber Mach-Zehnder Interferometer for Refractive Index Sensing
We report on a refractive index sensor using a photonic crystal fiber (PCF) interferometer which was realized by fusion splicing a short section of PCF (Blaze Photonics, LMA-10) between two standard single mode fibers. The fully collapsed air holes of the PCF at the spice regions allow the coupling of PCF core and cladding modes that makes a Mach-Zehnder interferometer. The transmission spectru...
