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…

We show, assuming the consistency of one measurable cardinal, that it is consistent for there to be exactly kappa+ many normal measures on the least measurable cardinal kappa. This answers a question of Stewart Baldwin. The methods…

In this paper we analyze the connection between some properties of partially strongly compact cardinals: the completion of filters of certain size and instances of the compactness of $\mathcal{L}_{\kappa,\kappa}$. Using this equivalence we…

We consider compactness characterizations of large cardinals. Based on results of Benda \cite{b-sccomp}, we study compactness for omitting types in various logics. In $\bL_{\kappa, \kappa}$, this allows us to characterize any large cardinal…

We introduce a new compactness principle which we call the gluing property. For a measurable cardinal $\kappa$ and a cardinal $\lambda$, we say that $\kappa$ has the $\lambda$-gluing property if every sequence of $\lambda$-many…

From large cardinals we show the consistency of normal, fine, $\kappa$-complete $\lambda$-dense ideals on $\mathcal{P}_\kappa(\lambda)$ for successor $\kappa$. We explore the interplay between dense ideals, cardinal arithmetic, and squares,…

We show that supercompactness and strong compactness can be equivalent even as properties of pairs of regular cardinals. Specifically, we show that if V models ZFC + GCH is a given model (which in interesting cases contains instances of…

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…

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…

We prove that some natural "outside" property is equivalent (for a first order class) to being stable. For a model, being resplendent is a strengthening of being kappa-saturated. Restricting ourselves to the case kappa > |T| for…

Recently the second author introduced combinatorial principles that characterize supercompactness for inaccessible cardinals but can also hold true for small cardinals. We prove that the proper forcing axiom PFA implies these principles…

The following pcf results are proved: 1. Assume that kappa > aleph_0 is a weakly compact cardinal. Let mu > 2^kappa be a singular cardinal of cofinality kappa. Then for every regular lambda < pp^+_{Gamma(kappa)} (mu) there is an increasing…

It is well known to generalize the meagre ideal replacing aleph_0 by a (regular) cardinal lambda > aleph_0 and requiring the ideal to be lambda^+-complete. But can we generalize the null ideal? In terms of forcing, this means finding a…

We provide a model where u(\kappa) < 2^{\kappa} for a supercompact cardinal \kappa. Garti and Shelah have provided a sketch of how to obtain such a model by modifying the construction in a paper of Dzamonja and Shelah; we provide here a…

Given a Woodin cardinal $\delta$, I show that if $F$ is any Easton function with $F"\delta\subseteq\delta$ and $\GCH$ holds, then there is a cofinality-preserving forcing extension in which $2^\gamma= F(\gamma)$ for each regular cardinal…

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 extend prior results of Cody-Eskew, showing the consistency of GCH with the statement that for all regular cardinals $\kappa \leq \lambda$, where $\kappa$ is the successor of a regular cardinal, there is a rigid saturated ideal on…

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 prove a theorem on iterated forcing that can be used for preservation of $\aleph_2$ and $\aleph_1$ in iterations with supports of size $\aleph_1$ of forcings that have amalgamation properties similar to those present in the perfect set…

We investigate the extent to which ultrapowers by normal measures on $\kappa$ can be correct about powersets $\mathcal{P}(\lambda)$ for $\lambda>\kappa$. We consider two versions of this questions, the capturing property…
