In the first part of the paper, we show that if $\omega \le \kappa < \lambda$ are cardinals, $\kappa^{<\kappa} = \kappa$, and $\lambda$ is weakly compact, then in $V[\M(\kappa,\lambda)]$ the tree property at $\lambda =…
In this short note, we shall prove some observations regarding the connection between indestructible $\omega_1$-guessing models and the $\omega_1$-approximation property of forcing notions.
From many supercompact cardinals, we show that it is consistent for the tree property to hold at many small successors of singular cardinals, each with a different cofinality. In particular, we construct a model in which the tree property…
Starting with infinitely many supercompact cardinals, we show that the tree property at every cardinal $\aleph_n$, $1 < n <\omega$, is consistent with an arbitrary continuum function below $\aleph_\omega$ which satisfies $2^{\aleph_n} >…
Building on recent work of Krueger and the second author, we prove the consistency of the Guessing Model Principle at $\omega_2$ together with the existence of an almost Kurepa Suslin tree. In particular, it is consistent that the Guessing…
Starting from a stationary set of supercompact cardinals we find a generic extension in which the tree property holds at every regular cardinal between $\aleph_2$ and $\aleph_{\omega^2}$.
We show that it is consistent, relative to $\omega$ many supercompact cardinals, that the super tree property holds at $\aleph_n$ for all $2 \leq n < \omega$ but there are weak square and a very good scale at $\aleph_{\omega}$.
Assuming $\rm PFA$, we shall use internally club $\omega_1$-guessing models as side conditions to show that for every tree $T$ of height $\omega_2$ without cofinal branches, there is a proper and $\aleph_2$-preserving forcing notion with…
Assuming the existence of a strong cardinal and a measurable cardinal above it, we construct a model of $ZFC$ in which for every singular cardinal $\delta$, $\delta$ is strong limit, $2^\delta=\delta^{+3}$ and the tree property at…
We show that it is consistent from an inaccessible cardinal that classical Namba forcing has the weak $\omega_1$-approximation property. In fact, this is the case if $\aleph_1$-preserving forcings do not add cofinal branches to…
A tree ${\mathbb T} =\langle T\leq \rangle$ is reversible iff there is no order $\preccurlyeq \;\varsubsetneq \;\leq $ such that ${\mathbb T} \cong \langle T ,\preccurlyeq\rangle$. Using a characterization of reversibility via back and…
The paper is devoted to a study of certain fixed point properties, and their relatives, in the context of full automorphism groups of countable rooted trees. Namely, we study Serre's property (FA'), also called unsplittability, property…
Since being isolated by Viale and Weiss in 2009, the Guessing Model Property has emerged as a particularly prominent and powerful consequence of the Proper Forcing Axiom. In this paper, we investigate connections between variations of the…
We investigate properties of trees of height $\omega_1$ and their preservation under subcomplete forcing. We show that subcomplete forcing cannot add a new branch to an $\omega_1$-tree. We introduce fragments of subcompleteness which are…
Assuming the existence of a strong cardinal $\kappa$ and a measurable cardinal above it, we force a generic extension in which $\kappa$ is a singular strong limit cardinal of any prescribed cofinality, and such that the tree property holds…
We study a notion of potential isomorphism, where two structures are said to be potentially isomorphic if they are isomorphic in some generic extension that preserves stationary sets and does not add new sets of cardinality less than the…
Assume $\lambda$ is a singular limit of $\eta$ supercompact cardinals, where $\eta \leq \lambda$ is a limit ordinal. We present two forcing methods for making $\lambda^+$ the successor of the limit of the first $\eta$ measurable cardinals…
Trees are partial orders in which every element has a linearly ordered set of predecessors. Here we initiate the exploration of the structural theory of trees with the study of different notions of \emph{branching in trees} and of…
It was shown in \cite{sc12} that for a certain class of structures $\I$, $\I$-indexed indiscernible sets have the modeling property just in case the age of $\I$ is a Ramsey class. We expand this known class of structures from ordered…
We investigate some versions of amoeba for tree-forcings in the generalized Cantor and Baire spaces. This answers [10, Question 3.20] and generalizes a line of research that in the standard case has been studied in [11], [13], and [7].…
