We analyze the hereditarily ordinal definable sets $\operatorname{HOD}$ in $M_n(x)[g]$ for a Turing cone of reals $x$, where $M_n(x)$ is the canonical inner model with $n$ Woodin cardinals build over $x$ and $g$ is generic over $M_n(x)$ for…
We describe an obstacle to the analysis of $\mathrm{HOD}^{L[x]}$ as a core model: Assuming sufficient large cardinals, for a Turing cone of reals $x$ there are premice $M,N$ in $\mathrm{HC}^{L[x]}$ such that the pseudo-comparison of $L[M]$…
Assume ZFC. Let $\kappa$ be a cardinal. Recall that a ${<\kappa}$-ground is a transitive proper class $W$ modelling ZFC such that $V$ is a generic extension of $W$ via a forcing $\mathbb{P}\in W$ of cardinality ${<\kappa}$, and the…
For $n<\omega$, let $N_n$ be the minimal iterable proper class mouse $M$ such that $M\models$ "there are ordinals $\delta_0<\kappa_0<\ldots<\delta_{n-1}<\kappa_{n-1}$ such that each $\delta_i$ is a Woodin cardinal and each $\kappa_i$ is a…
Assume $\boldsymbol{\Delta}^1_3$-determinacy. It is shown that for any $x \geq_T M_1^{\#}$, $\mathrm{HOD}^{L[x]}$ is a model of GCH, and in fact, it is a Jensen-Steel core model up to $\omega_2^{L[x]}$.
In this paper, we prove that: if $\kappa$ is supercompact and the $\mathsf{HOD}$ Hypothesis holds, then there is a proper class of regular cardinals in $V_{\kappa}$ which are measurable in $\mathsf{HOD}$. Woodin also proved this result. As…
In the first part of the manuscript, we establish several consistency results concerning Woodin's $\HOD$ hypothesis and large cardinals around the level of extendibility. First, we prove that the first extendible cardinal can be the first…
Assume the existence of sufficent large cardinals. Let $M_{\mathrm{sw}n}$ be the minimal iterable proper class $L[E]$ model satisfying "there are $\delta_0<\kappa_0<\ldots<\delta_{n-1}<\kappa_{n-1}$ such that the $\delta_i$ are Woodin…
If we replace first order logic by second order logic in the original definition of G\"odel's inner model $L$, we obtain HOD. In this paper we consider inner models that arise if we replace first order logic by a logic that has some, but…
We show that if the universe is self-iterable and $\kappa$ is an inaccessible limit of Woodin cardinal then $AD_R + "\Theta$ is regular" holds in the derived model at $\kappa$. The proof is fine-structure free, and only assumes basic…
Assuming that $GCH$ holds and $\kappa$ is $\kappa^{+3}$-supercompact, we construct a generic extension $W$ of $V$ in which $\kappa$ remains strongly inaccessible and $(\alpha^+)^{HOD} < \alpha^+$ for every infinite cardinal $\alpha <…
We present an $L$-like construction that produces the minimal model of $\mathsf{AD}_\mathbb{R}+$"$\Theta$ is regular". In fact, our construction can produce any model of $\mathsf{AD}^++\mathsf{AD}_\mathbb{R}+V=L(P(\mathbb{R}))$ in which…
Suppose there is a Reinhardt cardinal. Then (1) $M_n(X)$ exists and is fully iterable (above $X$) for every transitive set $X$ and every $n<\omega$ (here $M_n(X)$ denotes the canonical minimal proper class inner model containing $X$ and…
It is shown, from hypotheses in the region of $\omega^2$ Woodin cardinals, that there is a transitive model of KP + AD$_\mathbb{R}$ containing all reals.
Let $R$ be the class of regular cardinals which are not hyperinaccessible. We show that $L[R]$, and similar inner models in the $\alpha$-inaccessible hierarchy, can be generated by iterating a small "machete" mouse up through all the…
This paper explores several topics related to Woodin's HOD conjecture. We improve the large cardinal hypothesis of Woodin's HOD dichotomy theorem from an extendible cardinal to a strongly compact cardinal. We show that assuming there is a…
Assume $\kappa = \kappa^{< \kappa}$ (usually $\aleph_0$ or an inaccessible). We shall deal with iterated forcings preserving ${}^{\kappa>}{\rm Ord}$ and not collapsing cardinals along a linear order $L$. A sufficient condition for this,…
Let $M$ be a tame mouse modelling ZFC. We show that $M$ satisfies "$V=\mathrm{HOD}_x$ for some real $x$", and that the restriction $\mathbb{E}\upharpoonright[\omega_1^M,\mathrm{OR}^M)$ of the extender sequence $\mathbb{E}^M$ of $M$ to…
This paper provides an accessible introduction to some of the work of Woodin on suitable extender models. We define the HOD conjecture, prove it is equivalent to a formulation in terms of weak extender models for supercompactness, and give…
We show that in $L(\mathbb{R})$, assuming large cardinals, $\mathsf{HOD} {\parallel}\eta^{+\mathsf{HOD}}$ is locally definable from $\mathsf{HOD} {\parallel}\eta$ for all $\mathsf{HOD}$-cardinals $\eta\in [\boldsymbol{\delta}^2_1,\Theta)$.…
