We investigate the possibilities of global versions of Chang's Conjecture that involve singular cardinals. We show some $\mathrm{ZFC}$ limitations on such principles, and prove relative to large cardinals that Chang's Conjecture can…
This paper continues a line of investigation of the Halpern--L\"{a}uchli Theorem at uncountable cardinals. We prove in ZFC that the Halpern--L\"{a}uchli Theorem for one tree of height $\kappa$ holds whenever $\kappa$ is strongly…
We prove two ZFC theorems about cardinal invariants above the continuum which are in sharp contrast to well-known facts about these same invariants at the continuum. It is shown that for an uncountable regular cardinal $\kappa$,…
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 $\kappa$…
We prove that the strong polarized relation of $\theta$ above $\omega$ applied simultaneously for every cardinal in the interval $[\aleph_1,\aleph]$ is consistent. We conclude that this positive relation is consistent for every cardinal…
The strong tree property and ITP (also called the super tree property) are generalizations of the tree property that characterize strong compactness and supercompactness up to inaccessibility. That is, an inaccessible cardinal $\kappa$ is…
We construct a model in which the continuum has size $\kappa$ for a regular cardinal $\kappa$ and in which the $\Sigma^1_n$-uniformization property holds simultaneously for every $n \ge 2$. Additionally this model has a $\Delta^1_3$-…
Motivated by the goal of constructing a model in which there are no $\kappa$-Aronszajn trees for any regular $\kappa>\aleph_1$, we produce a model with many singular cardinals where both the singular cardinals hypothesis and weak square…
For an uncountable regular cardinal \kappa we let \nabla_\kappa(A) be the statement that A \subset \kappa and for all regular \theta > \kappa, the set of all X \in [\theta]^<\kappa such that X \cap \kappa \in \kappa and otp(X \cap OR) is a…
We prove that for lambda = beta_omega or just lambda strong limit singular of cofinality aleph_0, if there is a universal member in the class K^lf_lambda of locally finite groups of cardinality lambda, then there is a canonical one…
We prove that the list chromatic number of graphs satisfies singular compactness at strong limit singular cardinals.
We analyze the intermediate models of the strongly compact Prikry forcing. We exhibit a simple combinatorial property which, for a given supercompact cardinal $\kappa$, characterize the projections of all projections of the strongly compact…
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,…
We deal with (< kappa)-supported iterated forcing notions which are (E_0,E_1)-complete, have in mind problems on Whitehead groups, uniformizations and the general problem. We deal mainly with the successor of a singular case. This continues…
Let $G$ be a graph on $n$ nodes. In this note, we prove that if $G$ is $(r+1)$-vertex connected, $1 \leq r \leq n-2$, then there exists a configuration $p$ in general position in $R^r$ such that the bar framework $(G,p)$ is universally…
In this paper, we characterize the possible cofinalities of the least $\lambda$-strongly compact cardinal. We show that, on the one hand, for any regular cardinal, $\delta$, that carries a $\lambda$-complete uniform ultrafilter, it is…
We prove the following two results. Theorem A: Let alpha be a limit ordinal. Suppose that 2^{|alpha|}<aleph_alpha and 2^{|alpha|^+}<aleph_{|alpha|^+}, whereas aleph_alpha^{|alpha|}>aleph_{|alpha|^+}. Then for all n< omega and for all…
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…
For a cardinal kappa and a model M of cardinality kappa let No(M) denote the number of non-isomorphic models of cardinality kappa which are L_{infty,kappa}--equivalent to M. In [Sh:133] Shelah established that when kappa is a weakly compact…
Let $\kappa$ be an inaccessible cardinal, $\mathfrak{U}$ be a universal algebra, and $\sim$ be the equivalence relation on $\mathfrak{U}^{\kappa}$ of eventual equality. From mild assumptions on $\kappa$ we give general constructions of…
