Splitting Families and the Noetherian Type of Βω \ Ω
نویسنده
چکیده
Extending some results of Malykhin, we prove several independence results about base properties of βω \ ω and its powers, especially the Noetherian type Nt(βω \ ω), the least κ for which βω \ ω has a base that is κ-like with respect to containment. For example, Nt(βω \ ω) is at least s, but can consistently be ω1, c, c+, or strictly between ω1 and c. Nt(βω \ ω) is also consistently less than the additivity of the meager ideal. Nt(βω \ ω) is closely related to the existence of special kinds of splitting families.

Ultrafilter Spaces on the Semilattice of Partitions
The Stone-Čech compactification of the natural numbers βω (or equivalently, the space of ultrafilters on the subsets of ω) is a well-studied space with interesting properties. Replacing the subsets of ω by partitions of ω in the construction of the ultrafilter space gives non-homeomorphic spaces of partition ultrafilters corresponding to βω. We develop a general framework for spaces of this typ...

Motivated by a question of Isbell, we show that ♦ implies there is a non-P-point U ∈ βω \ ω such that neither 〈U ,⊇〉 nor 〈U ,⊇∗〉 is Tukey equivalent to 〈[c],⊆〉. We also show that 〈U ,⊇∗〉 ≡T 〈[c],⊆〉 for some U ∈ βω \ ω, assuming cf(κ) = κ ≤ p = c. We also prove two negative ZFC results about the possible Tukey classes of ultrafilters on ω.

متن کاملA non-conserving coagulation model with extremal dynamics
A coagulation process is studied in a set of random masses, in which two randomly chosen masses and the smallest mass of the set multiplied by some fixed parameter ω ∈ [−1, 1] are iteratively added. Besides masses (or primary variables), secondary variables are also considered that are correlated with primary variables and coagulate according to the above rule with ω = 0. This process interpola...
