Jan 29, 2013 at 22:41 comment added Danielle Ulrich This is exactly my motivation for the question! Basically I'm trying to figure out, sitting in a model of $V \not= L$, how much we can reason about a hypothetical extension of the universe in which $V = L$. In my mind its analogous to reasoning about hypothetical generic filters
Jan 29, 2013 at 16:48 comment added jonasreitz @Joel, yes, I had intended $M$ to be transitive. However, I know if we allow non-transitive models we get some very interesting and strange results, as in your "Multiverse Perspective on the Axiom of Constructibility" -- so I guess I'm also interested in the nontransitive case...
Jan 29, 2013 at 16:45 comment added Joel David Hamkins Nice question, Jonas! I assume throughout that you want $M$ to be transitive?
Jan 29, 2013 at 16:40 comment added jonasreitz Douglas, just wanted to say I love your question. In contemplating these odd models in which every element is constructible, but $V \neq L$, I am always struck by the possibility that every set is, in fact, constructible, if we are willing to continue the $L$-construction far enough beyond $ORD$. This idea is addressed more rigorously by Joel Hamkins in his A Multiverse Perspective on the Axiom of Constructibility
Jan 29, 2013 at 14:53 comment added Emil Jeřábek Never mind, I misread it thinking it referred to $<_L$ inside the model rather than the external one.
Jan 29, 2013 at 14:05 comment added Andreas Blass @Emil: Yes, Jonas wants the ordering of all of $M$ in order of constructibility. That ordering exists because he assumed $M\in L$.
Jan 29, 2013 at 14:00 comment added Danielle Ulrich This is not an answer- this would be a comment if I had enough reputation points for comments. I just wanted to mention that I am no longer convinced by the answer to my question (to which you linked).
