Easton functions and supercompactness

Brent Cody, Sy-David Friedman, Radek Honzik (2014)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Suppose that κ is λ-supercompact witnessed by an elementary embedding j: V → M with critical point κ, and further suppose that F is a function from the class of regular cardinals to the class of cardinals satisfying the requirements of Easton’s theorem: (1) ∀α α < cf(F(α)), and (2) α < β ⇒ F(α) ≤ F(β). We address the question: assuming GCH, what additional assumptions are necessary on j and F if one wants to be able to force the continuum function to agree with F globally, while preserving...

Extending real-valued functions in βκ

Alan Dow (1997)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

An Open Coloring Axiom type principle is formulated for uncountable cardinals and is shown to be a consequence of the Proper Forcing Axiom. Several applications are found. We also study dense C*-embedded subspaces of ω*, showing that there can be such sets of cardinality c and that it is consistent that ω*{pis C*-embedded for some but not all p ∈ ω*.

Extensions with the approximation and cover properties have no new large cardinals

Joel David Hamkins (2003)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

If an extension V ⊆ V̅ satisfies the δ approximation and cover properties for classes and V is a class in V̅, then every suitably closed embedding j: V̅ → N̅ in V̅ with critical point above δ restricts to an embedding j ↾ V amenable to the ground model V. In such extensions, therefore, there are no new large cardinals above δ. This result extends work in [Ham01].
