Borel Tukey morphisms and combinatorial cardinal invariants of the continuum

Samuel Coskey, Tamás Mátrai, Juris Steprāns (2013)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We discuss the Borel Tukey ordering on cardinal invariants of the continuum. We observe that this ordering makes sense for a larger class of cardinals than has previously been considered. We then provide a Borel version of a large portion of van Douwen's diagram. For instance, although the usual proof of the inequality 𝔭 ≤ 𝔟 does not provide a Borel Tukey map, we show that in fact there is one. Afterwards, we revisit a result of Mildenberger concerning a generalization of the unsplitting...

κ-strong sequences and the existence of generalized independent families

Joanna Jureczko (2017)

Open Mathematics

Similarity:

In this paper we will show some relations between generalized versions of strong sequences introduced by Efimov in 1965 and independent families. We also show some inequalities between cardinal invariants associated with these both notions.

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.

Inaccessible cardinals without the axiom of choice

Andreas Blass, Ioanna M. Dimitriou, Benedikt Löwe (2007)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We consider four notions of strong inaccessibility that are equivalent in ZFC and show that they are not equivalent in ZF.

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.

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.
