We deal with the problem of preserving various versions of completeness in (< kappa) --support iterations of forcing notions, generalizing the case ``S --complete proper is preserved by CS iterations for a stationary co-stationary S…

We show that the number of types of sequences of tuples of a fixed length can be calculated from the number of 1-types and the length of the sequences. Specifically, if $\kappa \leq \lambda$, then $$\sup_{|A| = \lambda} |S^\kappa(A)| =…

This paper defines a Mitchell rank for supercompact cardinals. If $\kappa$ is a $\theta$-supercompact cardinal then $o_{\theta-sc}(\kappa) = \sup \{ o_{\theta-sc}(\mu) + 1 \ | \ \mu \in m(\kappa)\}$, where $m(\kappa)$ is the collection of…

An inaccessible cardinal $\kappa$ is supercompact when $(\kappa, \lambda)$-ITP holds for all $\lambda\geq \kappa.$ We prove that if there is a model of $\ZFC$ with two supercompact cardinals, then there is a model of \ZFC where…

We provide a model where u(\kappa) < 2^{\kappa} for a supercompact cardinal \kappa. Garti and Shelah have provided a sketch of how to obtain such a model by modifying the construction in a paper of Dzamonja and Shelah; we provide here a…

We study abstract elementary classes (AECs) that, in $\aleph_0$, have amalgamation, joint embedding, no maximal models and are stable (in terms of the number of orbital types). Assuming a locality property for types, we prove that such…

We show that the tree property, stationary reflection and the failure of approachability at $\kappa^{++}$ are consistent with $\mathfrak{u}(\kappa) = \kappa^+ < 2^\kappa$, where $\kappa$ is a singular strong limit cardinal with the…

This note shows how recent work of Eskew and Hayut can be combined with a method of Raghavan and Shelah to show the consistency of $\mathfrak u_\kappa<2^\kappa$ for $\aleph_3\leq \kappa<\aleph_{\omega}$, from a huge cardinal.

We prove: $\mathbf{Theorem}$ Let $K$ be a universal class. If $K$ is categorical in cardinals of arbitrarily high cofinality, then $K$ is categorical on a tail of cardinals. The proof stems from ideas of Adi Jarden and Will Boney, and also…

We continue the investigations in the author's book on cardinal arithmetic, assuming some knowledge of it. We deal with the cofinality of (S_{<= aleph_0}(kappa), subseteq) for kappa real valued measurable (Section 3), densities of box…

We continue our study of Sierpinski-type colourings. In contrast to the prequel paper, we focus here on colourings for ideals stratified by their completeness degree. In particular, improving upon Ulam's theorem and its extension by Hajnal,…

In [Sh E46], Shelah obtained a non-forking relation for an AEC, (K,\preceq), with LST-number at most \lambda, which is categorical in \lambda and \lambda^+ and has less than 2^{\lambda^+} models of cardinality \lambda^{++}, but at least…

Using Koszmider's strongly unbounded functions, we show the following consistency result: Suppose that $\kappa,\lambda$ are infinite cardinals such that $\kappa^{+++} \leq \lambda$, $\kappa^{<\kappa}=\kappa$ and $2^{\kappa}= \kappa^+$, and…

Answering some of the main questions from [MR13], we show that whenever $\kappa$ is a cardinal satisfying $\kappa^{< \kappa} = \kappa > \omega$, then the embeddability relation between $\kappa$-sized structures is strongly invariantly…

We show that it is consistent relative to a huge cardinal that for all infinite cardinals $\kappa$, $\square_\kappa$ holds and there is a stationary $S \subseteq \kappa^+$ such that $\mathrm{NS}_{\kappa^+} \restriction S$ is…

Introducing unfoldable cardinals last year, Andres Villaveces ingeniously extended the notion of weak compactness to a larger context, thereby producing a large cardinal notion, unfoldability, with some of the feel and flavor of weak…

We study methods to obtain the consistency of forcing axioms, and particularly higher forcing axioms. We first force over a model with a supercompact cardinal $\theta>\kappa$ to get the consistency of the forcing axiom for $\kappa$-strongly…

We obtain a small ultrafilter number at $\aleph_{\omega_1}$. Moreover, we develop a version of the overlapping strong extender forcing with collapses which can keep the top cardinal $\kappa$ inaccessible. We apply this forcing to construct…

Building off of recent results on Keisler's order, we show that consistently, $\leq_{SP}$ has infinitely many classes. In particular, we define the property of $\leq k$-type amalgamation for simple theories, for each $2 \leq k < \omega$. If…

We show that for any uncountable cardinal $\lambda$, the category of sets of cardinality at least $\lambda$ and monomorphisms between them cannot appear as the category of point of a topos, in particular is not the category of models of a…
