Menger conjectured that subsets of $mathbb R$ with the Menger property must be $sigma$-compact. While this is false when there is no restriction on the subsets of $mathbb R$, for projective subsets it is known to follow from the Axiom of Projective Determinacy, which has considerable large cardinal consistency strength. We show that the perfect set version of the Open Graph Axiom for projective sets of reals, with consistency strength only an inaccessible cardinal, also implies Mengers conjecture restricted to this family of subsets of $mathbb R$.

A new axiom is proposed, the Ground Axiom, asserting that the universe is not a nontrivial set-forcing extension of any inner model. The Ground Axiom is first-order expressible, and any model of ZFC has a class-forcing extension which satisfies it. T

The Omitting Types Theorem in model theory and the Baire Category Theorem in topology are known to be closely linked. We examine the precise relation between these two theorems. Working with a general notion of logic we show that the classical Omitti
