Apr 26, 2018 at 15:25 comment added Victoria Gitman Great! Thanks very much for the explanation!
Apr 26, 2018 at 15:13 comment added Gabe Goldberg More generally, the elementary embeddings of $L$ are parameterized by the order embeddings of the Silver indiscernibles. See for example Schindler's Set Theory, Corollary 10.44 (5).
Apr 26, 2018 at 15:05 comment added Gabe Goldberg The image of the Silver indiscernibles under $j'$ is a club class of order indiscernibles for $L$ and hence is contained in the Silver indiscernibles.
Apr 26, 2018 at 14:31 comment added Victoria Gitman Almost got it. Why is $j'(\alpha_0)$ indiscernible?
Apr 26, 2018 at 13:56 comment added Gabe Goldberg Derive the ultrapower embedding $j': L \to L$ from $j$ using $\alpha_0$ as a seed. Note that $j' \leq j$ pointwise on the ordinals since $j'$ factors into $j$. But $j$ is the pointwise minimum order-preserving function on the indiscernibles that moves $\alpha_0$. So $j'$ and $j$ agree on the indiscernibles. The indiscernibles generate $L$, so $j' = j$.
Apr 26, 2018 at 13:04 comment added Victoria Gitman I don't see why $j$ has to be an ultrapower embedding. Is this obvious?
Apr 26, 2018 at 7:37 comment added Stamatis Dimopoulos I don't have much experience with $0^{\#}$ but it may be relevant that usually this property is associated with strong compactness at $\delta$, and there are no inner models (yet) for such large cardinals.
Apr 25, 2018 at 16:49 comment added Gabe Goldberg $j$ is an ultrapower embedding by an $L$-$\alpha_0$-complete $L$-ultrafilter on $\alpha_0$ using functions in $L$ so it is continuous at all ordinals whose $L$-cofinality is not $\alpha_0$.
