We provide an exposition of supercompact Radin forcing and present several methods for iterating Radin forcing. In this paper we give an exposition of supercompact Radin forcing using coherent sequences of ultrafilters. This version of Radin forcing includes as special cases the Prikry forcing and Magidor forcing, both the measurable and supercompact versions. We also introduce some methods for...

We show that bounded forcing axioms (for instance, the Bounded Proper Forcing Axiom and the Bounded Semiproper Forcing Axiom) are consistent with the existence of (!2; !2)-gaps and thus do not imply the Open Coloring Axiom. They are also consistent with Jensen’s combinatorial principles for L at the level !2, and therefore with the existence of an !2-Suslin tree. We also show that the axiom we ...

In this paper we consider MIMO broadcast channels with separable variance profile modelling antenna correlation at both transmit and receive sides. For large number of antennas we derive the theoretical sum-rate capacity when the transmitter performs zero-forcing or regularized zero-forcing precoding. In particular, we apply the results to volumelimited devices where the correlation originates ...

A natural question to ask is whether this result has an analogue in the context of large cardinals. The purpose of this article is to provide the strongest such analogue not ruled out by limitations imposed by the existence of Woodin cardinals. To describe the latter limitations we consider the forcing P , described as follows. Let δ be inaccessible and consider the language L(δ): (a) n ∈ R bel...

Over the past few decades, the geographical distribution of emissions of substances that alter the atmospheric energy balance has changed due to economic growth and air pollution regulations. Here, we show the resulting changes to aerosol and ozone abundances and their radiative forcing using recently updated emission data for the period 1990–2015, as simulated by seven global atmospheric compo...

The observed increase in global mean surface temperature (GMST) over the industrial era is less than 40% of that expected from observed increases in long-lived greenhouse gases together with the best-estimate equilibrium climate sensitivity given by the 2007 Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. Possible reasons for this warming discrepancy are systematically exami...

[1] Single column models (SCMs) are useful tools for the evaluation of parameterisations of radiative and moist processes used in general circulation models (GCMs). Most SCM studies to date have concentrated on regions where there is a sufficiently dense observational network to derive the required forcing data. This paper describes an ensemble single column modeling (ESCM) approach where the f...

In a parity judgment task, the ERPs at parietal electrode sites become more negative as more mental rotation has to be executed. This article provides a review of the empirical evidence regarding this amplitude modulation. More specifically, experiments are reported that validate both the functional relationship between mental rotation and the amplitude modulation as well as the temporal relati...

We investigated whether concurrent processing of a tone (T1) interferes with early sensory-perceptual processing of a visual target (T2) in variants of the psychological refractory period paradigm using the event-related potential (ERP) method and 70-channel electroencephalographic recordings. T1, which required a speeded response, was presented in all trials. In half of the trials, T1 was foll...

M. A. Van Selst, E. Ruthruff, and J. C. Johnston (1999) found that practice dramatically reduced dual-task interference in a Psychological Refractory Period (PRP) paradigm with 1 vocal response and 1 manual response. Results from 3 further experiments using the highly trained participants of M. A. Van Selst et al. (1999) support 4 main conclusions: (a) A processing bottleneck exists even after ...
