We present a direct construction of stationary set preserving forcings that make $\omega$-cofinal all the members of some arbitrary set $\mathcal{K}$ of regular cardinals $\kappa > \omega_1$. In addition, it is made possible to ensure that…
In this paper, we introduce several classes of Prikry-type forcing notions, two of which are used to produce minimal generic extensions, and the third is applied in $\alpha$-recursion theory to produce minimal covers. The first forcing as a…
Cicho\'n's diagram describes the connections between combinatorial notions related to measure, category, and compactness of sets of irrational numbers. In the second part of the 2010's, Goldstern, Kellner and Shelah constructed a forcing…
In this paper, we answer a question asked in "A minimal Prikry type forcing for singularizing a measurable cardinal" regarding a Mathias criteria for Tree-Prikry forcing. Also we will investigate Prikry forcing using various filters. For…
We prove two general results about the preservation of extendible and $C^{(n)}$-extendible cardinals under a wide class of forcing iterations (Theorems 5.4 and 7.5). As applications we give new proofs of the preservation of Vop\v{e}nka's…
We work with symmetric inner models of forcing extensions based on strongly compact Prikry forcing to extend some known results.
Some models of combinatorial principles have been obtained by collapsing a huge cardinal in the case of the successors of regular cardinals. For example, saturated ideals, Chang's conjecture, polarized partition relations, and transfer…
We characterize sums of normal ultrafilters after the Magidor iteration (product) of Prikry forcings over a discrete set of measurable cardinals. We apply this to show that the weak Ultrapower Axiom is not equivalent to the Ultrapower…
We study the Magidor iteration of Prikry forcings below a measurable limit of measurables $ \kappa $. We first characterize all the normal measures $ \kappa $ carries in the generic extension, building on and extending the main result of…
Answering a question of Usuba, we show that an extendible cardinal can be preserved by a set forcing that is not a small forcing.
We present a new version of the Friedman-Magidor theorem: for every measurable cardinal $\kappa$ and $\tau\leq\kappa^{++}$, there exists a forcing extension $V\subseteq V[G]$ such that any normal measure $U\in V$ on $\kappa$ has exactly…
We answer a question of Moore by building a forcing extension satisfying measuring together with CH. The construction works over any model of ZFC and can be described as a forcing iteration with countable structures as side conditions and…
This paper is meant to present in a coherent way several instances of quite common phenomena that was first identified (independently) by Bukovsk\'y and Dehornoy. We present the basic result for Prikry type forcing and show how to extend it…
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 the work done by the authors and before that by the second author, Kanovei and koepke. We prove that for every set of ordinals $A$ in a Magidor-Radin generic extension using a coherent sequence such that…
We summarize the known methods of producing a non-supercompact strongly compact cardinal and describe some new variants. Our Main Theorem shows how to apply these methods to many cardinals simultaneously and exactly control which cardinals…
Let $\mathcal{SN}$ be the $\sigma$-ideal of the strong measure zero sets of reals. We present general properties of forcing notions that allow to control of the additivity of $\mathcal{SN}$ after finite support iterations. This is applied…
In this paper, we study the notion of a generically extendible cardinal, which is a generic version of an extendible cardinal. We prove that the generic extendibility of $\omega_1$ or $\omega_2$ has small consistency strength, but that of a…
We present two ways in which the model $L({\mathbb R})$ is canonical assuming the existence of large cardinals. We show that the theory of this model, with {\em ordinal} parameters, cannot be changed by small forcing; we show further that a…
We produce a model where every supercompact cardinal is $C^{(1)}$-supercompact with inaccessible targets. This is a significant improvement of the main identity-crises configuration obtained in \cite{HMP} and provides a definitive answer to…
