Hybrid Prikry forcing

Dima Sinapova (2015)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We present a new forcing notion combining diagonal supercompact Prikry forcing with interleaved extender based forcing. We start with a supercompact cardinal κ. In the final model the cofinality of κ is ω, the singular cardinal hypothesis fails at κ, and GCH holds below κ. Moreover we define a scale at κ which has a stationary set of bad points in the ground model.

Mixed Levels of Indestructibility

Arthur W. Apter (2015)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

Similarity:

Starting from a supercompact cardinal κ, we force and construct a model in which κ is both the least strongly compact and least supercompact cardinal and κ exhibits mixed levels of indestructibility. Specifically, κ 's strong compactness, but not its supercompactness, is indestructible under any κ -directed closed forcing which also adds a Cohen subset of κ. On the other hand, in this model, κ 's supercompactness is indestructible under any κ -directed closed forcing which does not add...

On iterated forcing for successors of regular cardinals

Todd Eisworth (2003)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We investigate the problem of when ≤λ-support iterations of < λ-complete notions of forcing preserve λ⁺. We isolate a property- properness over diamonds-that implies λ⁺ is preserved and show that this property is preserved by λ-support iterations. Our condition is a relative of that presented by Rosłanowski and Shelah in [2]; it is not clear if the two conditions are equivalent. We close with an application of our technology by presenting a consistency result on uniformizing colorings...

Singular Failures of GCH and Level by Level Equivalence

Arthur W. Apter (2014)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

Similarity:

We construct a model for the level by level equivalence between strong compactness and supercompactness in which below the least supercompact cardinal κ, there is an unbounded set of singular cardinals which witness the only failures of GCH in the universe. In this model, the structure of the class of supercompact cardinals can be arbitrary.
