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...

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.

Level by Level Inequivalence, Strong Compactness, and GCH

Arthur W. Apter (2012)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

Similarity:

We construct three models containing exactly one supercompact cardinal in which level by level inequivalence between strong compactness and supercompactness holds. In the first two models, below the supercompact cardinal κ, there is a non-supercompact strongly compact cardinal. In the last model, any suitably defined ground model Easton function is realized.

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.

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.
