On Ramsey properties of classes with forbidden trees
Let F be a set of relational trees and let Forbh(F) be the class of all
structures that admit no homomorphism from any tree in F; all this happens over
a fixed finite relational signature . There is a natural way to expand
Forbh(F) by unary relations to an amalgamation class. This expanded class,
enhanced with a linear ordering, has the Ramsey property.Comment: Keywords: forbidden substructure; amalgamation; Ramsey class; partite

Principal Bundles and the Dixmier Douady Class
A systematic consideration of the problem of the reduction and extension of
the structure group of a principal bundle is made and a variety of techniques
in each case are explored and related to one another. We apply these to the
study of the Dixmier-Douady class in various contexts including string
structures, U-res bundles and other examples motivated by considerations from
quantum field theory.Comment: 28 pages, latex, no figures, uses amsmath, amsthm, amsfonts. Revised
