Logic Papers of the Week
The 20 most important new Logic papers of the past week, ranked by potential impact. A new issue comes out every Monday, covering the previous Monday-to-Sunday week.
- 1The Exact Erdős–Ko–Rado Theorem for 3-Wise 𝑡-Intersecting Uniform Families
For 𝑟 = 2 after decades of effort, a complete solution was given by the Complete Intersection Theorem ([2]).
- 2The Logic of Emergence
``Emergence'' refers to the fact that different mathematical languages and theories seem to be required to describe scientific theories that operate at different spatial and temporal scales.
- 3Monadically Dependent Graph Classes Have Almost Bounded Merge-Width
We prove that every monadically dependent graph class has almost bounded merge-width, thereby confirming a conjecture of the first and the last author [STOC '25].
- 4First-Order Model Checking on Monadically Dependent Graph Classes
In particular, we show that in monadically dependent classes, tuples of fixed length have only $|U|^{O(1)}$ types of fixed quantifier rank over any set of parameters $U$.
- 5The 1-2-3 Conjecture for Borel Combinatorics
The 1-2-3 Conjecture asserts that every finite graph without isolated edges admits edge weights from $\{1,2,3\}$ such that the sum function forms a vertex coloring. We study its Borel analogue for locally finite Borel graphs without isolated edges, proving that five weights suffice in general and four suffice for regular graphs.
Get papers like these the day they come out, not a week later.

In this study, some types of convexity, like strictly (strongly) convexity, (λ,ψ)-convexity with different senses over fuzzy soft expert set, have been described with the numerical examples.
- 7On Dykstra’s Algorithm with Bregman Projections
We provide quantitative results on the asymptotic behavior of Dykstra’s algorithm with Bregman projections, a combination of the well-known Dykstra’s algorithm and the method of cyclic Bregman projections, designed to find best approximations and solve the convex feasibility problem in a non-orthogonal setting.
- 8When Visuals Override The Crowd: How Multimodality, Online Comments and Virality Metrics Shape Credibility Evaluation of Disinformation
It remains unclear why individuals are susceptible to such content, especially in contexts featuring social engagement cues. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the roles of multimodality, online comments and virality metrics in disinformation evaluation.
- 9No Borel Upper Bound for The $F_σ$ Equivalence Relations
We prove that the family of coset relations of $F_\sigma$ real linear subspaces of Banach space $\ell_1$ has no common upper bound among Borel equivalence relations in the sense of Borel reducibility.
- 10Friedman--Stanley Cofinality Without Borel Completeness
We construct a counterexample in one fixed countable language.
- 11Large Cardinals, Small Violations of Choice
We study the relationship between large cardinals and Blass' Small Violation of Choice ($\mathsf{SVC}$), which states that the Axiom of Choice holds in a set-generic extension of the universe.
- 12Symmetries of Graphs and Structures That Fail to Interpret A Finite Thing
In this paper, we investigate structural implications arising from the condition that a given directed graph does not interpret, in the sense of primitive positive interpretation with parameters or orbits, every finite structure.
- 13Geometric Classification of Imaginaries in Pseudofinite Fields
In this paper, we establish an analogue for lovely pairs of pseudofinite fields.
- 14Dynamic Set Theory: Adding Natural Time to Sets and Specifying Space-Time Overlap
This paper develops dynamic set theory, which adds natural time to sets from the perspective of human perception.
- 15Evolution of Multicriteria Decision Making Methods: A Thirty-Year Review of Theory, Applications, and Future Trends
A bibliometric analysis of multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) studies was conducted using 8,947 articles published between 1995 and 2025.
- 16Well Begun Is Half Done: The Computation of Eulerian Paths
We characterize the uniform computational strength of finding one-way Eulerian paths in countable graphs.
- 17A Side Condition Principle With Applications
We introduce a combinatorial principle $\textsf{SC}(\kappa)$, for any regular cardinal $\kappa \ge \omega_2$, which asserts the existence of a family $\mathcal{Y} \subseteq [H(\kappa)]^\omega$ of elementary substructures of $H(\kappa)$ which is closed under finite intersections and satisfies that for stationarily many $N \in \mathcal{Y}$, if $M \in \mathcal{Y}$ and $M \cap \omega_1 < N \cap \omega_1$, then $M \cap N \cap \kappa \in N$.
- 18Idiosynchromatic Poetry
We prove equivalences of asymmetric partition relations involving natural numbers and products of weakly compact cardinals $\kappa$, infinite cardinals $\lambda<\kappa$ and natural numbers to certain classes of finitary problems in the theory of edge-coloured digraphs.
- 19Escaping and Generics Over Ideals
We study the relation between the existence of escaping (or hyperimmune) functions and weak 1-genericity using computability over ideals.
- 20The Complexity of Tilting
The aim of this paper is to show how infinitary logic can be used to lift model-theoretic results in arithmetic to a quantifier-sensitive form.
