We introduce a new parametrized diamond principle denoted $\diamondsuit(\mathsf{LP})$. This principle is akin to the parametrized diamonds of Moore, Hru\v{s}\'ak, and D\v{z}amonja, each of which corresponds to some cardinal invariant of the…
We introduce and study a family of axioms that closely follows the pattern of parametrized diamonds, studied by Moore, Hru\v{s}\'ak, and D\v{z}amonja in [13]. However, our approach appeals to model theoretic / forcing theoretic notions,…
Suppose that $T^*$ is an $\omega_1$-Aronszajn tree with no stationary antichain. We introduce a forcing axiom PFA($T^*$) for proper forcings which preserve these properties of $T^*$. We prove that PFA($T^*$) implies many of the strong…
We show it is consistent that there is a Souslin tree $S$ such that after forcing with $S$, $S$ is Kurepa and for all clubs $C \subset \omega_1$, $S\upharpoonright C$ is rigid. This answers Fuchs's questions in Club degrees of rigidity and…
Building on early work by Stevo Todorcevic, we describe a theory of stationary subtrees of trees of successor-cardinal height. We define the diagonal union of subsets of a tree, as well as normal ideals on a tree, and we characterize…
In Part I of this series, we presented the microscopic approach to Souslin-tree constructions, and argued that all known $\diamondsuit$-based constructions of Souslin trees with various additional properties may be rendered as applications…
We prove, e.g., that if lambda=chi^+=2^chi and S subseteq {delta<lambda:cf(delta) neq cf(chi)} is stationary then diamondsuit_lambda holds true.
We derive a forcing axiom from the conjunction of square and diamond, and present a few applications, primary among them being the existence of super-Souslin trees. It follows that for every uncountable cardinal $\lambda$, if $\lambda^{++}$…
Given a tree $T$ of height $\omega_1$, we say that a ladder system colouring $(f_\alpha)_{\alpha\in \lim\omega_1}$ has a $T$-uniformization if there is a function $\varphi$ defined on a subtree $S$ of $T$ so that for any $s\in S_\alpha$ of…
We prove a general Ramsey theorem for trees with a successor operation. This theorem is a common generalization of the Carlson-Simpson Theorem and the Milliken Tree Theorem for regularly branching trees. Our theorem has a number of…
Assuming Jenson's principle diamond: Whenever B is a totally imperfect set of real numbers, there is special Aronszajn tree with no continuous order preserving map into B.
We show that the analogues of the Hamkins embedding theorems, proved for the countable models of set theory, do not hold when extended to the uncountable realm of $\omega_1$-like models of set theory. Specifically, under the $\diamondsuit$…
We investigate various strong notions of rigidity for Souslin trees, separating them under Diamond into a hierarchy. Applying our methods to the automorphism tower problem in group theory, we show under Diamond that there is a group whose…
We continue the development of the theory of capturing schemes over $\omega_1$ by analyzing the relation between the capturing construction schemes (whose existence is implied by Jensen's $\Diamond$-principle) and both the Continuum…
Assuming $\diamondsuit$, we construct a $T_2$ example of a hereditarily Lindel\"of space of size $\omega_1$ which is not a $D$-space. The example has the property that all finite powers are also Lindel\"of.
A forest is a generalization of a tree, and here we consider the Aronszajn and Suslin properties for forests. We focus on those forests satisfying coherence, a local smallness property. We show that coherent Aronszajn forests can be…
We will present a collection of guessing principles which have a similar relationship to $\diamond$ as cardinal invariants of the continuum have to $\CH$. The purpose is to provide a means for systematically analyzing $\diamond$ and its…
We investigate the interaction between compactness principles and guessing principles in the Radin forcing extensions. In particular, we show that in any Radin forcing extension with respect to a measure sequence on $\kappa$, if $\kappa$ is…
We develop the complex-analytic viewpoint on the tree convolutions studied by the second author and Weihua Liu in "An operad of non-commutative independences defined by trees" (Dissertationes Mathematicae, 2020, doi:10.4064/dm797-6-2020),…
We investigate properties of trees of height $\omega_1$ and their preservation under subcomplete forcing. We show that subcomplete forcing cannot add a new branch to an $\omega_1$-tree. We introduce fragments of subcompleteness which are…
