Properties preserved by classes of Chu transforms
Francesco Parente
Chu spaces and Chu transforms were first investigated in category theory by Barr and Chu in 1979. In 2000 van Benthem shifted to the model-theoretic point of view by isolating a cl…
Almost refinement, reaping, and ultrafilter numbers
Jörg Brendle, Michael Hrušák, Francesco Parente
We investigate the combinatorial structure of the set of maximal antichains in a Boolean algebra ordered by almost refinement. We also consider the reaping relation and its associa…
Generic Absoluteness Revisited
Sakaé Fuchino, Takehiko Gappo, Francesco Parente
The present paper is concerned with the relation between recurrence axioms and Laver-generic large cardinal axioms in light of principles of generic absoluteness and the Ground Axi…
Keisler's order via Boolean ultrapowers
Francesco Parente
In this paper, we provide a new characterization of Keisler's order in terms of saturation of Boolean ultrapowers. To do so, we apply and expand the framework of 'separation of var…
On regular ultrafilters, Boolean ultrapowers, and Keisler's order
Francesco Parente
In this paper we analyse and compare two different notions of regularity for filters on complete Boolean algebras. We also announce two results from a forthcoming paper in preparat…
