Supercompact Measures and the Galvin Property
Abstract
We study saturation properties of -complete measures on , where can be either regular or singular. In particular, we prove that in contrast to Galvin's theorem, the Galvin property of Benhamou-Garti-Poveda fails for normal fine ultrafilters on , answering a question of the first author and Goldberg. We then provide several applications of our results: to ultrafilters on successor cardinals under , we generalize a result of Gitik regarding density of ground model sets in supercompact Prikry extensions, and to generating sets of measures. In the second part of the paper, we study variations of the Galvin property suitable for ultrafilters over , and generalize a result of Foreman-Magidor-Zeman on determinacy of filter games to the two-cardinal setting, answering a question of the first author and Gitman.
