We investigate Steel's conjecture in 'The Core Model Iterability Problem', that if $W$ and $R$ are $\Omega+1$-iterable, $1$-small weasels, then $W\leq^{*}R$ iff there is a club $C\subset\Omega$ such that for all $\alpha\in C$, if $\alpha$…

We show that (i) the standard fine structural properties for premice follow from normal iterability (whereas the classical proof relies on iterability for stacks of normal trees), and (ii) every mouse which is finitely generated above its…

Let $M$ be a fine structural mouse and let $F\in M$ be such that $M\models$``$F$ is a total extender'' and $(M||\mathrm{lh}(F),F)$ is a premouse. We show that it follows that $F\in\mathbb{E}^M$, where $\mathbb{E}^M$ is the extender sequence…

Let $M$ be a $\lambda$-indexed (that is, Jensen indexed) premouse. We prove that $M$ is iterable with respect to standard $\lambda$-iteration rules iff $M$ is iterable with respect to a natural version of Mitchell-Steel iteration rules.…

We establish natural criteria under which normally iterable premice are iterable for stacks of normal trees. Let $\Omega$ be a regular uncountable cardinal. Let $m<\omega$ and $M$ be an $m$-sound premouse and $\Sigma$ be an…

It is shown that if there is a measurable cardinal above n Woodin cardinals and M_{n+1}^# doesn't exist then K exists. K is not fully iterable, though, but only iterable with respect to stacks of certain trees living between the Woodin…

This paper establishes a number of constraints on the structure of large cardinals under strong compactness assumptions. These constraints coincide with those imposed by the Ultrapower Axiom, a principle that is expected to hold in Woodin's…

If T is an iteration tree on K and F is a countably certified extender that coheres with the final model of T, then F is on the extender sequence of the final model of T. Several applications of maximality are proved, including: o K…

Assume the existence of sufficent large cardinals. Let $M_{\mathrm{sw}n}$ be the minimal iterable proper class $L[E]$ model satisfying "there are $\delta_0<\kappa_0<\ldots<\delta_{n-1}<\kappa_{n-1}$ such that the $\delta_i$ are Woodin…

Let M be a fine structural mouse. Let D be a fully backgrounded L[E]-construction computed inside an iterable coarse premouse S. We describe a process comparing M with D, through forming iteration trees on M and on S. We then prove that…

Starting with two supercompact cardinals we produce a generic extension of the universe in which a principle that we call ${\rm GM}^+(\omega_3,\omega_1)$ holds. This principle implies ${\rm ISP}(\omega_2)$ and ${\rm ISP}(\omega_3)$, and…

From many supercompact cardinals, we show that it is consistent for the tree property to hold at many small successors of singular cardinals, each with a different cofinality. In particular, we construct a model in which the tree property…

Suppose there is a Reinhardt cardinal. Then (1) $M_n(X)$ exists and is fully iterable (above $X$) for every transitive set $X$ and every $n<\omega$ (here $M_n(X)$ denotes the canonical minimal proper class inner model containing $X$ and…

In this paper, we obtain the consistency, relative to large cardinals, of the existence of dense ideals on every successor of a regular cardinal simultaneously. Using a consequent transfer principle, we show that in this model there is a…

We prove that if there is an elementary embedding from the universe to itself, then there is a proper class of measurable successor cardinals.

We present a new partial order for directly forcing morasses to exist that enjoys a significant homogeneity property. We then use this forcing in a reverse Easton iteration to obtain an extension universe with morasses at every regular…

Starting from the existence of many supercompact cardinals, we construct a model of ZFC in which the tree property holds at a countable segment of successor of singular cardinals.

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 prove the consistency of the theory ZFC + there is a strongly compact cardinal from the existence of a cardinal preserving embedding from the universe into an inner model. The proof almost shows that under SCH, every cardinal preserving…

Foreman proved the Duality Theorem, which gives an algebraic characterization of certain ideal quotients in generic extensions. As an application he proved that generic supercompactness of $\omega_1$ is preserved by any proper forcing. We…
