If cf(kappa) = kappa, kappa^+< cf(lambda) = \lambda, then there is a stationary subset S of {delta<lambda:cf(delta)=kappa} in I[lambda]. Moreover, we can find <C_delta :delta in S>, C_delta a club of lambda, otp(C_delta)=kappa, guessing…
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…
We prove two $\mathrm{ZFC}$ inequalities between cardinal invariants. The first inequality involves cardinal invariants associated with an analytic P-ideal, in particular the ideal of subsets of $\omega$ of asymptotic density $0$. We obtain…
Given a strong limit cardinal $\lambda$ of countable cofinality, we show that if every $\lambda$-coanalytic subset of the generalised Cantor space ${}^{\lambda}2$ has the $\lambda$-$\mathsf{PSP}$, then there is an inner model with…
Remarkable cardinals were introduced by Schindler, who showed that the existence of a remarkable cardinal is equiconsistent with the assertion that the theory of $L(\mathbb R)$ is absolute for proper forcing. Here, we study the…
Assume that there is no quasi-measurable cardinal smaller than $2^\omega$. ($\kappa$ is quasi measurable if there exists $\kappa $-additive ideal $\ci $ of subsets of $\kappa $ such that the Boolean algebra $P(\kappa)/\ci$ satisfies c.c.c.)…
We construct a model of the form $L[A,U]$ that exhibits the simplest structural behavior of $\sigma$-complete ultrafilters in a model of set theory with a single measurable cardinal $\kappa$ , yet satisfies $2^\kappa = \kappa^{++}$. This…
We provide a model theoretical and tree property like characterization of $\lambda$-$\Pi^1_1$-subcompactness and supercompactness. We explore the behaviour of those combinatorial principles at accessible cardinals.
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 $F:[\kappa,\lambda]\cap\REG\to\CARD$…
Let lambda be an infinite cardinal number and let C = {H_i| i in I} be a family of nontrivial groups. Assume that |I|<=lambda, |H_i|<= lambda, for i in I, and at least one member of C achieves the cardinality lambda. We show that there…
In the original version of this paper, we assume a theory $T$ that the logic $\mathbb L_{\kappa, \aleph_{0}}$ is categorical in a cardinal $\lambda > \kappa$, and $\kappa$ is a measurable cardinal. There we prove that the class of model of…
We prove that consistently there is a singular cardinal $\kappa$ of uncountable cofinality such that $2^\kappa$ is weakly inaccessible, and every regular cardinal strictly between $\kappa$ and $2^\kappa$ is the character of some uniform…
Let $\lambda$ be an infinite cardinal number and let $\ell_\infty^c(\lambda)$ denote the subspace of $\ell_\infty(\lambda)$ consisting of all functions that assume at most countably many non-zero values. We classify all infinite dimensional…
An ideal $I$ on a cardinal $\kappa$ is called \emph{rigid} if all automorphisms of $P(\kappa)/I$ are trivial. An ideal is called \emph{$\mu$-minimal} if whenever $G\subseteq P(\kappa)/I$ is generic and $X\in P(\mu)^{V[G]}\setminus V$, it…
Here we deal with some problems posed by Matet. The first section deals with the existence of stationary subsets of [lambda]^{<kappa} with no unbounded subsets which are not stationary, where, of course, kappa is regular uncountable less or…
Dobrinen, Hathaway and Prikry studied a forcing $\mathbb{P}_\kappa$ consisting of perfect trees of height $\lambda$ and width $\kappa$ where $\kappa$ is a singular $\omega$-strong limit of cofinality $\lambda$. They showed that if $\kappa$…
Under MA we prove that for the ideal $\cal I$ of thin sets on $\omega$ and for any ordinal $\gamma \leq \omega_1$ there is an ${\cal I}$-ultrafilter (in the sense of Baumgartner), which belongs to the class ${\cal P}_{\gamma}$ of…
A stationary subset $S$ of a regular uncountable cardinal $\kappa$ {\it reflects fully} at regular cardinals if for every stationary set $T \subseteq \kappa$ of higher order consisting of regular cardinals there exists an $\alpha \in T$…
We demonstrate that the technology of Radin forcing can be used to transfer compactness properties at a weakly inaccessible but not strong limit cardinal to a strongly inaccessible cardinal. As an application, relative to the existence of…
We study the influence of the existence of large cardinals on the existence of wellorderings of power sets of infinite cardinals $\kappa$ with the property that the collection of all initial segments of the wellordering is definable by a…
