Some Remarks on Tall Cardinals and Failures of GCH

Arthur W. Apter (2013)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

Similarity:

We investigate two global GCH patterns which are consistent with the existence of a tall cardinal, and also present some related open questions.

Some applications of Sargsyan's equiconsistency method

Arthur W. Apter (2012)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We apply techniques due to Sargsyan to reduce the consistency strength of the assumptions used to establish an indestructibility theorem for supercompactness. We then show how these and additional techniques due to Sargsyan may be employed to establish an equiconsistency for a related indestructibility theorem for strongness.

HOD-supercompactness, Indestructibility, and Level by Level Equivalence

Arthur W. Apter, Shoshana Friedman (2014)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

Similarity:

In an attempt to extend the property of being supercompact but not HOD-supercompact to a proper class of indestructibly supercompact cardinals, a theorem is discovered about a proper class of indestructibly supercompact cardinals which reveals a surprising incompatibility. However, it is still possible to force to get a model in which the property of being supercompact but not HOD-supercompact holds for the least supercompact cardinal κ₀, κ₀ is indestructibly supercompact, the strongly...

Indestructibility, strongness, and level by level equivalence

Arthur W. Apter (2003)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We construct a model in which there is a strong cardinal κ whose strongness is indestructible under κ-strategically closed forcing and in which level by level equivalence between strong compactness and supercompactness holds non-trivially.

Universal Indestructibility is Consistent with Two Strongly Compact Cardinals

Arthur W. Apter (2005)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

Similarity:

We show that universal indestructibility for both strong compactness and supercompactness is consistent with the existence of two strongly compact cardinals. This is in contrast to the fact that if κ is supercompact and universal indestructibility for either strong compactness or supercompactness holds, then no cardinal λ > κ is measurable.

The Wholeness Axioms and the Class of Supercompact Cardinals

Arthur W. Apter (2012)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

Similarity:

We show that certain relatively consistent structural properties of the class of supercompact cardinals are also relatively consistent with the Wholeness Axioms.

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...

Indestructible Strong Compactness and Level by Level Equivalence with No Large Cardinal Restrictions

Arthur W. Apter (2015)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

Similarity:

We construct a model for the level by level equivalence between strong compactness and supercompactness with an arbitrary large cardinal structure in which the least supercompact cardinal κ has its strong compactness indestructible under κ-directed closed forcing. This is in analogy to and generalizes the author's result in Arch. Math. Logic 46 (2007), but without the restriction that no cardinal is supercompact up to an inaccessible cardinal.

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.
