We introduce a covering notion depending on two cardinals, which we call $\mathcal O $-$ [ \mu, \lambda ]$-compactness, and which encompasses both pseudocompactness and many other generalizations of pseudocompactness. For Tychonoff spaces,…

We investigate the circumstances under which there exist a singular cardinal $\mu$ and a short $(\kappa, \mu)$-extender $E$ witnessing "$\kappa$ is $\mu$-strong", such that $\mu$ is singular in $\Ult(V, E)$.

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…

We determine the large cardinal consistency strength of the existence of a $\lambda$-supercompact cardinal $\kappa$ such that GCH fails at $\lambda$. Indeed, we show that the existence of a $\lambda$-supercompact cardinal $\kappa$ such that…

We generalize the results from "P. Lipparini, Productive $[\lambda,\mu]$-compactness and regular ultrafilters, Topology Proceedings, 21 (1996), 161--171"; in particular the present results apply to singular cardinals, too.

We try to build, provably in ZFC, for a first order T a model in which any isomorphism between two Boolean algebras is definable. The problem, compared to [Sh:384], is with pseudo-finite Boolean algebras. A side benefit is that we do not…

We show relative to strong hypotheses that patterns of compact cardinals in the universe, where a compact cardinal is one which is either strongly compact or supercompact, can be virtually arbitrary. Specifically, we prove if V is a model…

We show that $X^\lambda$ is strongly homogeneous whenever $X$ is a non-separable zero-dimensional metrizable space and $\lambda$ is an infinite cardinal. This partially answers a question of Terada, and improves a previous result of the…

Given a cardinal $\kappa$ that is $\lambda$-supercompact for some regular cardinal $\lambda\geq\kappa$ and assuming $\GCH$, we show that one can force the continuum function to agree with any function $F:[\kappa,\lambda]\cap\REG\to\CARD$…

We prove that the property Add$(M)\subseteq$ Prod$(M)$ characterizes $\Sigma$-algebraically compact modules if $|M|$ is not $\omega$-measurable. Moreover, under a large cardinal assumption, we show that over any ring $R$ where $|R|$ is not…

We investigate in ZFC what can be the family of large enough cardinals mu in which an a.e.c. K is categorical or even just solvable. We show that for not few cardinals lambda<mu there is a superlimit model in K_lambda. Moreover, our main…

We consider the two-cardinal Kurepa Hypothesis $\mathsf{KH}(\kappa,\lambda)$. We observe that if $\kappa\leq\lambda<\mu$ are infinite cardinals then…

We show a new proof for the fact that when $\kappa$ and $\lambda$ are infinite cardinals satisfying $\lambda ^ \kappa = \lambda$, the cofinality of the set of all functions from $\lambda$ to $\kappa$ ordered by everywhere domination is…

Let omega be the first infinite ordinal (or the set of all natural numbers) with the usual order <. In section 1 we show that, assuming the consistency of a supercompact cardinal, there may exist an ultrapower of omega, whose cardinality is…

Suppose $\kappa$ is a singular strong limit cardinal of countable cofinality and let $\langle \kappa_{n}: n<\omega \rangle$ be an incrasing sequence of regular cardinals cofinal in $\kappa$. We show that if $cf(2^\kappa)= \kappa^+$, then…

We continue the work of [KlSh:362] and prove that for lambda successor, a lambda-categorical theory T in L_{kappa^*, omega} is mu-categorical for every mu, mu <= lambda which is above the (2^{LS(T)})^+-beth cardinal.

If $a,b$ are $n\times n$ matrices, Ando proved that Young's inequality is valid for their singular values: if $p>1$ and $1/p+1/q=1$, then $$ \lambda_k|ab^*|\le \lambda_k( \frac1p |a|^p+\frac 1q |b|^q ) \, \textit{ for all }k. $$ Later, this…

We answer a question of Usuba by showing that the combinatorial principle $UB_\lambda$ can fail at a singular cardinal. Furthermore, $\lambda$ can be taken to be $\aleph_\omega.$

This study uses the ideas of \cite{Rieffel} to provide the dual of $L^1(\mu,X)$ in the positive and $\sigma-$ finite cases. This results in elegant necessary and sufficient criteria for weak compactness in $L^1(S,\mu,X)$ in the…

We prove the consistency of $\binom{\mu^+}{\mu}\nrightarrow\binom{\mu^+ \omega_1}{\mu\ \mu}$ where $\mu$ is a strong limit singular cardinal of countable cofinality. This result can be forced at limit of measurable cardinals and at small…
