Nov 1, 2023 at 14:58 comment added Gabe Goldberg In fact, it is an open question whether given a model containing a strongly compact cardinal, it is possible to force GCH and preserve the strongly compact (see Apter-Dimopoulos-Usuba's "Strongly compact cardinals and the continuum function," Question 5.1). I think it is an interesting question whether one can start with an $\omega_1$-strongly compact and force to make the first $\omega_1$-strongly compact a strong limit cardinal; maybe this is possible just by "pushing up" the first $\omega_1$-strongly compact. More information in Gitik's "On $\sigma$-complete uniform ultrafilters."

Nov 1, 2023 at 10:11 comment added Calliope Ryan-Smith GCH seems quite a strong additional assumption on top of the existence of an $\aleph_1$-strongly compact cardinal; do you know if it is forcable from merely 'there exists an $\aleph_1$-strongly compact cardinal'?

Elementary, my dear Watson.
