My set theoretical research focusses around the construction and analysis of models of set theory with various combinatorial properties, using methods of forcing, inner models, and symmetric models. My main interest is on models having strong closure properties expressed by the existence of large cardinals like measurable and stronger cardinals. Model constructions allow to classify set theoretic properties in terms of large cardinals: A model with large cardinals is extended by forcing to a model of the combinatorial property; conversely assuming such a property one defines inner models of set theory with large cardinals.
The following questions are representative of my current research projects in axiomatic set theory: What remains of the ground model large cardinal properties in M. Gitik‘s model in which every cofinality is countable? What is the cardinal arithmetic of infinite sums and products in a model that I constructed with A. Fernengel ? How does Shelah's theory of possible cofinalities behave in that model? Can the model be modified so that the axiom of choice holds for countable families? I shall finalize work on the minimality of Prikry forcing with Gitik and Kanovei. The method of ordinal computability which I have developed will be employed in the fine structural analysis of Gödel‘s model of constructible sets.
In formal mathematics I shall further develop A. Paskevich‘s SAD system which is orientated towards natural mathematical language and argumentation. Based on previous experience with the Naproche system we are adding state-of-the-art natural language processing to SAD.
