Additive invariants in o-minimal valued fields

Abstract

We develop a theory of Hrushovski-Kazhdan style motivic integration for certain type of non-archimedean o-minimal fields, namely polynomial-bounded T-convex valued fields. The structure of valued fields is expressed through a two-sorted first-order language L_TRV. We establish canonical homomorphisms between the Grothendieck semirings of various categories of definable sets that are associated with the VF-sort and the RV-sort of L_TRV. The groupifications of some of these homomorphisms may be described explicitly and are understood as generalized Euler characteristics. In the end, following the Hrushovski-Loeser method, we construct topological zeta functions associated with (germs of) definable continuous functions in an arbitrary polynomial-bounded o-minimal field and show that they are rational. The overall construction is closely modeled on that of the original Hrushovski-Kazhdan construction, as reproduced in the series of papers by the present author.

There is no maximal $K$-degree

The Kolmogorov complexity of a string characterize how complex it is to describe the string. If every prefix of a real $x$ is more complex to describe than every prefix (of the same length) of real $y$, then it is seen as $x$ is more complex to describe than $y$. It is wondered if there is a real $x$ so that no other reals are strictly more complex (to describe) than $x$. The behavior of Kolmogorov complexity functions generated by reals (namely $n\mapsto$ the minimal description length of the real) is quite chaos. Therefore, it is widely believed that there are many reals that are maximally complex to describe. For instance, it is conjectured that all random enough reals have maximal $K$-degree. In this paper, it is shown that there is no real with maximal $K$-degree. Actually, for almost all real $x$, we can uniformly computably find another real whose $K$-degree is strictly above $x$.

Quadruples and cubes

We prove, in $\mathsf{ZFC}$, that the $\lambda$-terraced cube relation fails whenever $\lambda$ is an uncountable cardinal. The corresponding terraced relation for quadruples fails for every $\lambda$. If $\lambda$ is $\aleph_0$ then the pretinent terraced relation has consistency strength of at least one Woodin cardinal. We prove positive polarized relations at a successor and a double successor from wondrous ideals. We show, however, that there are no such ideals over two consecutive cardinals simultaneously.

Possibilistic Logic over a Logic of Formal Inconsistency

In this article, we have introduced a new possibilistic logic on a logic of formal inconsistency with the aim of developing a possibility theoretic framework to deal with uncertainty and inconsistency meaningfully without leading to a system collapse. We have discussed the syntax and semantics for this logic and have proved the soundness and completeness theorems. A set of new measures of consistency, contradictoriness, and triviality of a set of formulas have been defined. These have then been put to use in an example to show that this framework can provide better means of machine reasoning.
