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…
Combining stationary reflection (a compactness property) with the failure of SCH (an instance of non-compactness) has been a long-standing theme. We obtain this at $\aleph_{\omega_1}$, answering a question of Ben-Neria, Hayut, and Unger: We…
We prove the consistency, assuming an ineffable cardinal, that any two normal countably closed $\omega_2$-Aronszajn trees are club isomorphic. This work generalizes to higher cardinals the property of Abraham-Shelah that any two normal…
We study consequences of stationary and semi-stationary set reflection. We show that the semi stationary reflection principle implies the Singular Cardinal Hypothesis, the failure of weak square principle, etc. We also consider two cardinal…
Assuming the negation of Chang's conjecture, there is a c.c.c. forcing which adds a strongly non-saturated Aronszajn tree. Using a Mahlo cardinal, we construct a model in which there exists a strongly non-saturated Aronszajn tree and the…
We obtain an array of consistency results concerning trees and stationary reflection at double successors of regular cardinals $\kappa$, updating some classical constructions in the process. This includes models of…
We initiate the study of the spectrum $Vspec(\kappa)$ of sets that can be realized as the vanishing levels $V(T)$ of a normal $\kappa$-tree $T$. The latter is an invariant in the sense that if $T$ and $T'$ are club-isomorphic, then the…
Ben-David and Shelah proved that if $\lambda$ is a singular strong-limit cardinal and $2^\lambda=\lambda^+$, then $\square^*_\lambda$ entails the existence of a normal $\lambda$-distributive $\lambda^+$-Aronszajn tree. Here, it is proved…
We investigate questions involving Aronszajn trees, square principles, and stationary reflection. We first consider two strengthenings of $\square(\kappa)$ introduced by Brodsky and Rinot for the purpose of constructing $\kappa$-Souslin…
We show that the tree property, stationary reflection and the failure of approachability at $\kappa^{++}$ are consistent with $\mathfrak{u}(\kappa) = \kappa^+ < 2^\kappa$, where $\kappa$ is a singular strong limit cardinal with the…
There are several examples in the literature showing that compactness-like properties of a cardinal $\kappa$ cause poor behavior of some generic ultrapowers which have critical point $\kappa$ (Burke \cite{MR1472122} when $\kappa$ is a…
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 study projective stationary sets. The Projective Stationary Reflection principle is the statement that every projective stationary set contains an increasing continuous $\in$--chain of length $\omega_1$. We show that if Martin's Maximum…
A reflection principle for Corson compacta holds in the forcing extension obtained by Levy-collapsing a supercompact cardinal to~$\aleph_2$. In this model, a compact Hausdorff space is Corson if and only if all of its continuous images of…
The concepts of closed unbounded (club) and stationary sets are generalised to $\gamma$-club and $\gamma$-stationary sets, which are closely related to stationary reflection. We use these notions to define generalisations of Jensen's…
We show that for any regular cardinal $\kappa$, $\square_{\kappa, 2}$ is consistent with "all $\kappa^+$-Aronszajn trees are special." By a result of Shelah and Stanley this is optimal in the sense that $\square_{\kappa, 2}$ may not be…
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…
If $S,T$ are stationary subsets of a regular uncountable cardinal $\kappa$, we say that $S$ reflects fully in $T$, $S<T$, if for almost all $\alpha \in T$ (except a nonstationary set) $S \cap \alpha$ is stationary in $\alpha .$ This…
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…
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…
