Using Koszmider's strongly unbounded functions, we show the following consistency result: Suppose that $\kappa,\lambda$ are infinite cardinals such that $\kappa^{+++} \leq \lambda$, $\kappa^{<\kappa}=\kappa$ and $2^{\kappa}= \kappa^+$, and…

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 define a weak iterability notion that is sufficient for a number of arguments concerning $\Sigma_1$-definability at uncountable regular cardinals. In particular we give its exact consistency strength firstly in terms of the second…

We continue our investigation =of Shelah's interpretability orders $\trianglelefteq^*_\kappa$ as well as the new orders $\trianglelefteq^\times_\kappa$. In particular, we give streamlined proofs of the existence of minimal unstable,…

For a strongly inacessible cardinal $\kappa$, we investigate the relationships between the following ideals: - the ideal of meager sets in the ${<}\kappa$-box product topology - the ideal of "null" sets in the sense of [Sh:1004]…

We prove that if there is an elementary embedding from the universe to itself, then there is a proper class of measurable successor cardinals.

We isolate here a wide class of well founded orders called tame orders and show that each such order of cardinality at most $\kappa$ can be realized as the Mitchell order on a measurable cardinal $\kappa$, from a consistency assumption…

We investigate the structure of the lattice of clones on an infinite set X. We first observe that ultrafilters naturally induce clones; this yields a simple proof of Rosenberg's theorem: "there are 2^2^kappa many maximal (=precomplete)…

An inaccessible cardinal kappa is supercompact when (kappa, lambda)-ITP holds for all lambda greater than or equal to kappa. We prove that if there is a model of ZFC with infinitely many supercompact cardinals, then there is a model of ZFC…

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 a cardinal $\kappa > \omega$ a metric space $X$ is called to be $\kappa$-superuniversal whenever for every metric space $Y$ with $|Y| < \kappa$ every partial isometry from a subset of $Y$ into $X$ can be extended over the whole space…

We introduce $\mathcal{B}_{\kappa}$-embeddings, nonlinear mathematical structures that connect, through smooth paths parameterized by $\kappa$, a finite or denumerable set of objects at $\kappa=0$ (e.g. numbers, functions, vectors,…

A linear order $L$ is strongly surjective if $L$ can be mapped onto any of its suborders in an order preserving way. We prove various results on the existence and non-existence of uncountable strongly surjective linear orders answering…

Let kappa be an uncountable regular cardinal. Assuming 2^kappa=kappa^+, we show that the clone lattice on a set of size kappa is not dually atomic.

A 1984 problem of S.Z. Ditor asks whether there exists a lattice of cardinality aleph two, with zero, in which every principal ideal is finite and every element has at most three lower covers. We prove that the existence of such a lattice…

Let $\kappa$ be an uncountable cardinal such that $2^{<\kappa} = \kappa$ or just ${\rm cf}(\kappa) > \omega$, $2^{2^{<\kappa}}= 2^\kappa$, and $([\kappa]^\kappa, \supseteq)$ collapses $2^\kappa$ to $\omega$. We show under these assumptions…

In this paper we first formulate several ``combinatorial principles'' concerning kappa \times omega matrices of subsets of omega and prove that they are valid in the generic extension obtained by adding any number of Cohen reals to any…

We extend prior results of Cody-Eskew, showing the consistency of GCH with the statement that for all regular cardinals $\kappa \leq \lambda$, where $\kappa$ is the successor of a regular cardinal, there is a rigid saturated ideal on…

For finite semidistributive lattices the map $\kappa$ gives a bijection between the sets of completely join-irreducible elements and completely meet-irreducible elements. Here we study the $\kappa$-map in the context of torsion classes. It…

An $\omega_1$-compact space is a space in which every closed discrete subspace is countable. We give various general conditions under which a locally compact, $\omega_1$-compact space is $\sigma$-countably compact, i.e., the union of…
