We establish a coloring theorem for successors of a singular cardinals, and use it prove that for any such cardinal $\mu$, we have $\mu^+\nrightarrow[\mu^+]^2_{\mu^+}$ if and only if $\mu^+\nrightarrow[\mu^+]^2_{\theta}$ for arbitrarily…

We investigate the existence of strong colorings on successors of singular cardinals. This work continues Section 2 of [Sh:413] (math.LO/9809199), but now our emphasis is on finding colorings of pairs of ordinals, rather than colorings of…

We get a quite maximal version of the colouring property $Pr_1$ by proving $Pr_1(\lambda,\lambda,\lambda,\theta)$ when $\lambda = \partial^+, \partial > \theta$ are regular cardinals.

We obtain strong coloring theorems at successors of singular cardinals from failures of certain instances of simultaneous reflection of stationary sets. Along the way, we establish new results in club-guessing and in the general theory of…

We obtain an improvement of some coloring theorems from \cite{nsbpr}, \cite{819}, and \cite{APAL} for the case where the singular cardinal in question has countable cofinality. As a corollary, we obtain an "idealized" version of the…

In a paper from 1997, Shelah asked whether $Pr_1(\lambda^+,\lambda^+,\lambda^+,\lambda)$ holds for every inaccessible cardinal $\lambda$. Here, we prove that an affirmative answer follows from $\square(\lambda^+)$. Furthermore, we establish…

We investigate the problem of when $\leq\lambda$--support iterations of $<\lambda$--complete notions of forcing preserve $\lambda^+$. We isolate a property -- {\em properness over diamonds} -- that implies $\lambda^+$ is preserved and show…

We continue our study of maps transforming high-dimensional complicated objects into squares of stationary sets. Previously, we proved that many such transformations exist in ZFC, and here we address the consistency of the strongest…

We investigate negative square-brackets partition relations at successors of singular cardinals of countable cofinality. Along the way we prove some club-guessing results.

We deal here with colorings of the pair (mu^+, mu), when mu is a strong limit and singular cardinal. We show that there exists a coloring c, with no refinement. It follows, that the properties of identities of (mu^+, mu) when mu is…

Relative to class many supercompact cardinals, we construct a model of $\ZFC+\GCH$ where for every singular cardinal $\delta$ of countable cofinality and every regular uncountable $\mu<\delta$ there are stationarily many non-approachable…

Let Q_K=(Q,<_Q)$ be a strongly K-dense linear order of size K for a suitable cardinal K. We prove, for all integers m > 1 that there is a finite value t_m^+ such that the set of all m-tuples from Q can be divided into t_m^+ many classes,…

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 prove that successors of singular limits of strongly compact cardinals have the strong tree property. We also prove that aleph_{omega+1} can consistently satisfy the strong tree property.

We give a direct, detailed and relatively short proof of Shelah's theorem on club guessing sequences on $S^{\mu^+}_\mu$ (for any regular, uncountable cardinal $\mu$).

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…

Let K be an Abstract Elemenetary Class satisfying the amalgamation and the joint embedding property, let \mu be the Hanf number of K. Suppose K is tame. MAIN COROLLARY: (ZFC) If K is categorical in a successor cardinal bigger than…

We consider mainly the following version of set theory:"ZF + DC and for every $\lambda,\lambda^{\aleph_0}$ is well ordered", our thesis is that this is a reasonable set theory, e.g. much can be said. In particular, we prove that for a…

We prove the consistency of a strong polarized relation for a cardinal and its successor, using pcf and forcing

We solve a long-standing open problem of Shelah regarding the \emph{Approachability Ideal} $I[\kappa^+]$. Given a singular cardinal $\aleph_\gamma$, a regular cardinal $\mu\in (\mathrm{cf}(\gamma),\aleph_\gamma)$ and assuming appropriate…
