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…

Let kappa a regular uncountable cardinal and lambda a cardinal >kappa, and suppose lambda^{<kappa} is less than the covering number for category cov(M_{kappa,kappa}). Then (a) I_{kappa,lambda}^+ -->^kappa (I_{kappa, lambda}^+,omega +1)^2,…

Let $\mathcal M_X$ denote the ideal of meager subsets of a topological space $X$. We prove that if $X$ is a completely metrizable space without isolated points, then the smallest cardinality of a non-meager subset of $X$, denoted…

We provide analogues of the results from [FMR11, CMMR13] in the reference list (which correspond to the case $\kappa = \omega$) for arbitrary $\kappa$-Souslin quasi-orders on any Polish space, for $\kappa$ an infinite cardinal smaller than…

A model with a sequence of indiscernibles depending on a particular precovering set is constructed.The initial assumption is as follows: for every n<omega the set {alpha | o(alpha)=alpha^+n } is unbounded in kappa.

Starting with two supercompact cardinals we produce a generic extension of the universe in which a principle that we call ${\rm GM}^+(\omega_3,\omega_1)$ holds. This principle implies ${\rm ISP}(\omega_2)$ and ${\rm ISP}(\omega_3)$, and…

Superstrong cardinals are never Laver indestructible. Similarly, almost huge cardinals, huge cardinals, superhuge cardinals, rank-into-rank cardinals, extendible cardinals, 1-extendible cardinals, 0-extendible cardinals, weakly superstrong…

We prove a revised version of Laver's indestructibility theorem which slightly improves over the classical result. An application yields the consistency of $(\kappa^+,\kappa)\notcc(\aleph\_1,\aleph\_0)$ when $\kappa$ is supercompact. The…

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 introduce reflection properties of cardinals in which the attributes that reflect are expressible by infinitary formulas whose lengths can be strictly larger than the cardinal under consideration. This kind of generalized reflection…

Assuming the existence of a strong cardinal $\kappa$, a weakly compact cardinal $\lambda$ above it and $\gamma > \lambda,$ we force a generic extension in which $\kappa$ is a singular strong limit cardinal of any given cofinality $\delta$,…

Assuming an inaccessible cardinal kappa, there is a generic extension in which MA + 2^{aleph_0} = kappa holds and the reals have a Delta^2_1 well-ordering.

Woodin has shown that if there is a measurable Woodin cardinal then there is, in an appropriate sense, a sharp for the Chang model. We produce, in a weaker sense, a sharp for the Chang model using only the existence of a cardinal $\kappa$…

We continue the investigations in the author's book on cardinal arithmetic, assuming some knowledge of it. We deal with the cofinality of (S_{<= aleph_0}(kappa), subseteq) for kappa real valued measurable (Section 3), densities of box…

Assuming an instance of the Brodsky-Rinot proxy principle holding at a regular uncountable cardinal $\kappa$, we construct $2^\kappa$-many pairwise non-embeddable minimal non-$\sigma$-scattered linear orders of size $\kappa$. In particular,…

We investigate states on von Neumann algebras which are not normal but enjoy various forms of infinite additivity, and show that these exist on $B(H)$ if and only if the cardinality of an orthonormal basis of $H$ satisfies various large…

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.

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 obtain a small ultrafilter number at $\aleph_{\omega_1}$. Moreover, we develop a version of the overlapping strong extender forcing with collapses which can keep the top cardinal $\kappa$ inaccessible. We apply this forcing to construct…

We show that if \kappa\ is a weakly compact cardinal then the embeddability relation on (generalized) trees of size \kappa\ is invariantly universal. This means that for every analytic quasi-order R on the generalized Cantor space 2^\kappa\…
