At what ordinal $\chi$ does $\mathrm{L}_\chi$ contain a surjection from $\omega$ to $\mathrm...
Let $\mathrm{ZF^-}$ be $\mathrm{ZF}$ minus power set, and let $\beta_0$ be the ordinal for ramified analysis so that $\mathrm{L}_{\beta_0}$ is the least $\mathrm{L}$-model of $\mathrm{ZF}^-$. Clearly, …

Does $\mathrm{L}_{s_{n+1}}$ contain a surjection from $\omega$ to $\mathrm{L}_{s_n}$?
Let $s_n$ be the least $\Sigma_n-$admissible ordinal, so that $\mathrm{L}_{s_n}$ is a model of Kripke-Platek set theory with $\Sigma_n-$collection and $\Sigma_n-$separation.
Does $\mathrm{L}_{s_{n+1}} …

A question on the size of an admissible ordinal
Let $\mathbf{L}_{\varsigma}$ be the level of ordinal $\varsigma$ of Gödel's constructible universe $\mathbf{L}$. Let $\Sigma_{3}$-KP be Kripke-Platek set theory with infinity and $\Sigma_{3}$-$collect …

How short can we state the Axiom of Choice?
How short can we state a principle which is equivalent with the Axiom of Choice under $ZF$? The principle should be a sentence in the language of set theory with only $\in$ and$=$ as extralogical rela …

"Potency set" for power set?
Cross-posted at HSM.
Has the term "potency set" been used in English language mathematics for power set, and, if so, what are good references?
It is relevant that for historical reasons, "power set" i …

Impredicativity, definition, recursion and conservatism
Suppose we in an impredicative framework isolate the fixed point
$$Gx\leftrightarrow A(G,x)$$
from a $Gx$ obtained by $\Pi^1_1$-comprehension as equivalent to $\forall K((A(K,x)\to Kx)\to Kx)$, where …

Is Jaskowski's paraconsistent system moderate if sparked?
Stanislaw Jaskowski published a non-adjunctive paraconsistent logic, which does not have the inference rule $\vdash A \ \& \ \vdash B\Rightarrow \ \vdash A\wedge B$. The paper first appeared in Poli …

Ubiquity beyond infinity, transitive closure and the recursion theorem?
I am considering a Principle of Ubiquity, expressed as follows - for a class theory where precisely the elements are sets - with the aid of set abstracts:
For $\alpha(y,z)$ a first order condition so …

Countable $L_\alpha$ model for $S$ if $S$ has a countable well founded model?
Let $S$ be a proper fragment of $\mathit{ZFC}$, and let $S$ properly extend $\mathit{ZFC}^-$, i.e. $\mathit{ZFC}$ minus the power set axiom. Is there a countable ordinal $\alpha$ so that $L_\alpha$ is …
