Characterizing L(R) Cardinals in HOD
We're working in L(R) under AD.
We know that
$\omega_1$ is the least measurable in HOD, $\Theta$ is the least woodin, $\delta^2_1$ is the least strong to the woodin, etc.
My question is about ...

Do all limit $\alpha \in \omega_1^L$ satisfy $L_\alpha \models V=HC$?
In Gaps in the constructible universe, Marek and Srebrny, 1973 a gap ordinal and the start of a gap are defined as follows
$\alpha$ is a gap ordinal iff $(L_{\alpha+1}-L_\alpha)\bigcap \mathcal{P}(\...

Why are the sharps of sets of big ordinals not in $\mathcal{P}(\omega)$?
In his talk A Condensed History of Condensation, Welch presents the following recursive sharp function, that is total when all sharps exist:
\begin{align*}
\# \colon ON &\to \mathcal{P}(ON) \\
\...

Why can't $L_\beta$ contain a real coding a well-ordering of order-type $\beta$, when $\beta$ is a gap ordinal?
In Gaps in the constructible universe, Marek and Srebrny, 1973 a gap ordinal is defined as follows
$\alpha$ is a gap ordinal iff $(L_{\alpha+1}-L_\alpha)\cap \mathcal{P}(\omega) = \emptyset$
