In this paper we analyze the connection between some properties of partially strongly compact cardinals: the completion of filters of certain size and instances of the compactness of $\mathcal{L}_{\kappa,\kappa}$. Using this equivalence we…

We introduce the notion of weakly extendible cardinals and show that these cardinals are characterized in terms of weak compactness of second order logic. The consistency strength and largeness of weakly extendible cardinals are located…

We study the strength of well-founded ultrafilters on ordinals above choiceless large cardinals and their associated Prikry forcings. Gabriel Goldberg showed that all but boundedly many regular cardinals above a rank Berkeley cardinal carry…

Jech proved that every partially ordered set can be embedded into the cardinals of some model of $ZF$. We extend this result to show that every partially ordered set can be embedded into the cardinals of some model of $ZF+DC_{<\kappa}$ for…

A ccc-generically supercompact cardinal $\kappa$ can be smaller than or equal to the continuum. On the other hand, such a cardinal $\kappa$ still satisfies diverse largeness properties, like that it is a stationary limit of ccc-generically…

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…

A subset $S$ of a cardinal $\kappa$ is Ramsey if for every function $f:[S]^{<\omega}\to \kappa$ with $f(a)<\min a$ for all $a\in[S]^{<\omega}$, there is a set $H\subseteq S$ of cardinality $\kappa$ which is \emph{homogeneous} for $f$,…

We study ultrafilters on regular uncountable cardinals, with a primary focus on $\omega_1$, and particularly in relation to the Tukey order on directed sets. Results include the independence from ZFC of the assertion that every uniform…

The current paper answers an open question of abs/1007.2426 We say that a countable model M characterizes an infinite cardinal kappa, if the Scott sentence of M has a model in cardinality kappa, but no models in cardinality kappa plus. If M…

We characterize several large cardinal notions by model-theoretic properties of extensions of first-order logic. We show that $\Pi_n$-strong cardinals, and, as a corollary, ``Ord is Woodin" and weak Vop\v{e}nka's Principle, are…

Through careful analysis of an argument of Brooke-Taylor and Rosicky, we show that the powerful image of any accessible functor is closed under colimits of $\kappa$-chains, $\kappa$ a sufficiently large almost measurable cardinal. This…

Given an uncountable cardinal $\kappa$, we consider the question of whether subsets of the power set of $\kappa$ that are usually constructed with the help of the Axiom of Choice are definable by $\Sigma_1$-formulas that only use the…

We give a modification of Mitchell's technique for adding objects of size $\omega_2$ with conditions with finite working parts in which the collections of models used as side conditions are very highly structured, arguably making them more…

We study several intertwined hierarchies between $\kappa$-Ramsey cardinals and measurable cardinals to illuminate the structure of the large cardinal hierarchy in this region. In particular, we study baby versions of measurability…

We will consider a number of new large-cardinal properties, the $\alpha$-tremendous cardinals for each limit ordinal $\alpha>0$, the hyper-tremendous cardinals, the $\alpha$-enormous cardinals for each limit ordinal $\alpha>0$, and the…

Topological Ramsey spaces are spaces which support infinite dimensional Ramsey theory similarly to the Ellentuck space. Each topological Ramsey space is endowed with a partial ordering which can be modified to a $\sigma$-closed `almost…

This paper establishes a number of constraints on the structure of large cardinals under strong compactness assumptions. These constraints coincide with those imposed by the Ultrapower Axiom, a principle that is expected to hold in Woodin's…

We continue investigations of reasonable ultrafilters on uncountable cardinals defined in math.LO/0407498. We introduce stronger properties of ultrafilters and we show that those properties may be handled in lambda-support iterations of…

We prove from suitable large cardinal hypotheses that the least weakly compact cardinal can be unfoldable, weakly measurable and even nearly $\theta$-supercompact, for any desired $\theta$. In addition, we prove several global results…

We generalise the $\alpha$-Ramsey cardinals introduced in Holy and Schlicht (2018) for cardinals $\alpha$ to arbitrary ordinals $\alpha$, and answer several questions posed in that paper. In particular, we show that $\alpha$-Ramseys are…
