We deal with the problem of preserving various versions of completeness in (< kappa) --support iterations of forcing notions, generalizing the case ``S --complete proper is preserved by CS iterations for a stationary co-stationary S…

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,…

We show that higher Sacks forcing at a regular limit cardinal and club Miller forcing at an uncountable regular cardinal both add a diamond sequence. We answer the longstanding question, whether $\kappa = \kappa^{<\kappa} \geq\aleph_1$…

Consider $(\kappa^{+++},\kappa^{++}) \twoheadrightarrow (\kappa^+,\kappa)$ where $\kappa$ is an uncountable regular cardinal. By a result of Shelah's we have $\operatorname{cof}(X \cap \kappa^{++}) = \kappa$ for almost all $X \subset…

We introduce more properties of forcing notions which imply that their lambda-support iterations are lambda-proper, where lambda is an inaccessible cardinal. This paper is a direct continuation of section A.2 of math.LO/0210205. As an…

We study methods to obtain the consistency of forcing axioms, and particularly higher forcing axioms. We first force over a model with a supercompact cardinal $\theta>\kappa$ to get the consistency of the forcing axiom for $\kappa$-strongly…

Suppose $\kappa$ is a singular strong limit cardinal of countable cofinality and let $\langle \kappa_{n}: n<\omega \rangle$ be an incrasing sequence of regular cardinals cofinal in $\kappa$. We show that if $cf(2^\kappa)= \kappa^+$, then…

If $\kappa$ is regular and $2^{<\kappa}\leq\kappa^+$, then the existence of a weakly presaturated ideal on $\kappa^+$ implies $\square^*_\kappa$. This partially answers a question of Foreman and Magidor about the approachability ideal on…

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…

We deal with an iteration theorem of forcing notion with a kind of countable support of nice enough forcing notion which is proper aleph_2-c.c. forcing notions. We then look at some special cases (Q_D 's preceded by random forcing).

This article continues Ros{\l}anowski and Shelah math.LO/9906024, math.LO/0508272, math.LO/0210205, math.LO/0611131 and math.LO/0605067. We introduce here a new property of <lambda-strategically complete forcing notions which implies that…

We look for a parallel to the notion of ``proper forcing'' among lambda-complete forcing notions not collapsing lambda^+ . We suggest such a definition and prove that it is preserved by suitable iterations.

We prove several results giving lower bounds for the large cardinal strength of a failure of the singular cardinal hypothesis. The main result is the following theorem: Theorem: Suppose $\kappa$ is a singular strong limit cardinal and…

We present a version with non-definable forcing notions of Shelah's theory of iterated forcing along a template. Our main result, as an application, is that, if $\kappa$ is a measurable cardinal and $\theta<\kappa<\mu<\lambda$ are…

We introduce a class of notions of forcing which we call $\Sigma$-Prikry, and show that many of the known Prikry-type notions of forcing that centers around singular cardinals of countable cofinality are $\Sigma$-Prikry. We show that given…

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,…

We extend A. Miller's framework of $\alpha$-forcing to the case of a regular uncountable cardinal $\kappa = \kappa^{<\kappa}$ and apply it to study the structure of the $\kappa$-Borel hierarchy on subspaces of the generalized Baire space…

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…

Vladimir Kanovei \cite{zbMATH01335192} developed the technique of geometric iteration and used it to prove that the perfect set forcing can be iterated with countable supports along any partial order, while preserving $\aleph_1$. In…

We show that from a supercompact cardinal \kappa, there is a forcing extension V[G] that has a symmetric inner model N in which ZF + not AC holds, \kappa\ and \kappa^+ are both singular, and the continuum function at \kappa\ can be…
