We obtain results on the condensation principle called local club condensation. We prove that in extender models an equivalence between the failure of local club condensation and subcompact cardinals holds. This gives a characterization of…

We prove two ZFC theorems about cardinal invariants above the continuum which are in sharp contrast to well-known facts about these same invariants at the continuum. It is shown that for an uncountable regular cardinal $\kappa$,…

For $n<\omega$, we say that the $\Pi^1_n$-reflection principle holds at $\kappa$ and write $\text{Refl}_n(\kappa)$ if and only if $\kappa$ is a $\Pi^1_n$-indescribable cardinal and every $\Pi^1_n$-indescribable subset of $\kappa$ has a…

Given an uncountable cardinal $\kappa$, we consider the question of whether subsets of the power set of $\kappa$ that are usually constructed with the help of the Axiom of Choice are definable by $\Sigma_1$-formulas that only use the…

All spaces are assumed to be Tychonoff. Given a realcompact space $X$, we denote by $\mathsf{Exp}(X)$ the smallest infinite cardinal $\kappa$ such that $X$ is homeomorphic to a closed subspace of $\mathbb{R}^\kappa$. Our main result shows…

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 show that generalized eventually narrow sequences on a strongly inaccessible cardinal $\kappa$ are preserved under the Cummings-Shaleh non-linear iterations of the higher Hechler forcing on $\kappa$. Moreover assuming GCH,…

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 investigate the provability of classical combinatorial theorems in ZF. Using combinatorial arguments, we establish the following results for each infinite cardinal ${\kappa}\in On$, (1) ${\kappa}^+\to ({\kappa},{\omega}+1)$, (2) any…

We show that for any uncountable cardinal $\lambda$, the category of sets of cardinality at least $\lambda$ and monomorphisms between them cannot appear as the category of point of a topos, in particular is not the category of models of a…

We address a number of problems on Boolean Algebras. For example, we construct, in ZFC, for any BA B, and cardinal kappa BAs B_1,B_2 extending B such that the depth of the free product of B_1,B_2 over B is strictly larger than the depths of…

For a regular uncountable cardinal kappa, we discuss the order relationship between the unbounding and dominating numbers on kappa and cardinal invariants of the higher meager ideal M_kappa. In particular, we obtain a complete…

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…

Let kappa be a regular uncountable cardinal and lambda >=kappa^+ . The principle of stationary reflection for P_kappa lambda has been successful in settling problems of infinite combinatorics in the case kappa=omega_1. For a greater kappa…

A simple \(P_\lambda\)-point on a regular cardinal \(\kappa\) is a uniform ultrafilter on \(\kappa\) with a mod-bounded decreasing generating sequence of length \(\lambda\). We prove that if there is a simple $P_\lambda$-point ultrafilter…

Hellsten \cite{MR2026390} proved that when $\kappa$ is $\Pi^1_n$-indescribable, the \emph{$n$-club} subsets of $\kappa$ provide a filter base for the $\Pi^1_n$-indescribability ideal, and hence can also be used to give a characterization of…
