Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

We answer a long-standing question of Van Douwen by proving in Z F C \mathrm {ZFC} that there is a MAD family of functions in ω ω {\omega }^{\omega } that is also maximal with respect to infinite partial functions. In Section 3 we apply the idea of trace introduced in this proof to the still open question of whether analytic MAD families exist in ω ω {\omega }^{\omega } . Using the idea of trace, we show that any analytic MAD families that may exist in ω ω {\omega }^{\omega } must satisfy strong combinatorial constraints. We also show that it is consistent to have MAD families in ω ω {\omega }^{\omega } that satisfy these constraints.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
