Nov 27, 2014 at 3:49 comment added Mohammad Golshani @YairHayut Definition is essentially the same as the one given in Woodin's paper "Suitable extender models".
Nov 26, 2014 at 7:46 comment added Yair Hayut What is your definition of supercompact cardinal? I think that in the absence of choice the first order definition (existence of normal measure on $P_\kappa \lambda$) and the second order one (existence of elementary embedding to a model that is closed under $\lambda$ sequences) are not equivalent.

Oct 24, 2014 at 15:37 comment added Andrés E. Caicedo @JoelDavidHamkins Ah, sure. The situation here is easier than with embeddings $j:L(V_\lambda)\to L(V_\lambda)$.
Oct 24, 2014 at 13:44 comment added Joel David Hamkins Andres, why doesn't the usual argument show that all iterates are well-founded? Let $\xi$ be least such that $j_{0,\lambda}(\xi)$ is in the ill-founded part of some $M_\lambda$, with $\lambda$ a limit. But in some $M_\alpha$ with $0<\alpha<\lambda$, there will be born a smaller $\xi'<\xi$ with $j_{\alpha,\lambda}(\xi')$ also in the ill-founded part. This argument seems to use only ZF in the language with j, in order that we may refer in any model to the corresponding iterates of $j$.
Oct 24, 2014 at 13:37 comment added Andrés E. Caicedo @YairHayut However, without additional assumptions, it does not need to be the case that the direct limits taken at limit stages are well-founded.
Oct 24, 2014 at 10:57 comment added Joel David Hamkins Yair, we may apply $j$ to any $j\upharpoonright V_\alpha$, and take the union to form $j_{1,2}=j(j)=\bigcup_\alpha j(j\upharpoonright V_\alpha)$. This is presumably what Mohammad means by iterating.
Oct 24, 2014 at 10:20 comment added Yair Hayut I don't understand. Why do we have an elementary embedding $j_1$ with critical point $j(\kappa_0) = \kappa_1$ ($\kappa_0 = \text{crit }j$)? After all, $j$ can't be first order definable in $V$.
Oct 24, 2014 at 6:02 comment added Asaf Karagila @Andres: Ah, yes. That's what I was missing. I had a hunch it might be in the limit steps. Those can be sneaky bastards sometimes. Thanks! (In fact, it's even easy to see why $M_\omega\neq V$, because $\kappa_\omega$ must be regular in $M_\omega$ but singular in $V$...)
Oct 24, 2014 at 6:01 comment added Andrés E. Caicedo @AsafKaragila Why is $M_\omega=V$? $M_\omega$ is defined as a direct limit, and the maps are not the identity.

Oct 24, 2014 at 5:46 comment added Asaf Karagila Is $j\colon V\to V$? If so, $M=V$ since $M_\alpha$ is $V$ for all $\alpha$. No? Am I missing something?
