A stationary subset S of a regular uncountable cardinal kappa reflects fully at regular cardinals if for every stationary set T subseteq kappa of higher order consisting of regular cardinals there exists an alpha in T such that S cap alpha…
We introduce the notion of weakly extendible cardinals and show that these cardinals are characterized in terms of weak compactness of second order logic. The consistency strength and largeness of weakly extendible cardinals are located…
We improve previous work on the consistency strength of mutually stationary sequences of sets concentrating on points with divergent cofinality building on previous work by Adolf, Cox and Welch. Specifically, we have greatly reduced our…
A cardinal $\lambda$ satisfies a property P robustly if, whenever $\mathbb{Q}$ is a forcing poset and $|\mathbb{Q}|^+ < \lambda$, $\lambda$ satisfies P in $V^{\mathbb{Q}}$. We study the extent to which certain reflection properties of large…
We prove a weakened version of the reflection of Reinhardt cardinals by super Reinhardt cardinals: Let $M=(V^M,P)$ be a countable model of second order set theory $\mathsf{ZF}_2$ (with universe $V^M$ and classes $P$) which models "$\kappa$…
Given an uncountable regular cardinal $\kappa$, a partial order is $\kappa$-stationarily layered if the collection of regular suborders of $\mathbb{P}$ of cardinality less than $\kappa$ is stationary in $\mathcal{P}_\kappa(\mathbb{P})$. We…
We establish the consistency of the failure of the diamond principle on a cardinal $\kappa$ which satisfies a strong simultaneous reflection property. The result is based on an analysis of Radin forcing, and further leads to a…
We investigate the relationship between weak square principles and simultaneous reflection of stationary sets.
Continuing [Fuchino, Ottenbreit and Sakai[9, 10]] and [Fuchino and Ottenbreit[11]], we further study reflection principles in connection with the L\"owenheim-Skolem Theorems of stationary logics. In this paper, we mainly analyze 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 describe a framework for proving consistency results about singular cardinals of arbitrary cofinality and their successors. This framework allows the construction of models in which the Singular Cardinals Hypothesis fails at a singular…
A cardinal kappa is countably closed if mu^omega < kappa whenever mu < kappa. Assume that there is no inner model with a Woodin cardinal and that every set has a sharp. Let K be the core model. Assume that kappa is a countably closed…
In this paper we continue the study in [Gilton-Levine-Stejskalova] of compactness and incompactness principles at double successors, focusing here on the case of double successors of singulars of countable cofinality. We obtain models which…
Covering matrices were introduced by Viale in his proof that the Singular Cardinals Hypothesis follows from the Proper Forcing Axiom. In the course of his work and in subsequent work with Sharon, he isolated two reflection principles,…
We isolate several classes of stationary sets of kappa^omega and investigate implications among them. Under a large cardinal assumption, we prove a structure theorem for stationary sets.
After reviewing various natural bi-interpretations in urelement set theory, including second-order set theories with urelements, we explore the strength of second-order reflection in these contexts. Ultimately, we prove, second-order…
The {\em Singular Cardinal Hypothesis} (SCH) is one of the most classical combinatorial principles in set theory. It says that if $\kappa$ is singular strong limit, then $2^{\kappa}=\kappa^+$. We prove that given a singular cardinal…
We recently formulated a new large-cardinal axiom of strength intermediate between a totally indescribable cardinal and an $\omega$-Erd\H{o}s cardinal, positing the existence of what we called an "extremely reflective cardinal", and we…
The purpose of this paper is to present some results which suggest that the Singular Cardinals Hypothesis follows from the Proper Forcing Axiom. What will be proved is that a form of simultaneous reflection follows from the Set Mapping…
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…
