Very weak square and good points

This is probably well known but I'll appreciate pointers to references: Is there any model where for a singular cardinal $\kappa$ of cofinality $\omega$, Very Weak Square holds at $\kappa$ but every …

End-extending cardinals

Suppose $\kappa$ carries an $\omega_1$-saturated $\kappa$-complete ideal $I$, given $M\prec (V_{\kappa+2},\in , <)$ ($<$ well orders $V_{\kappa+2}$) of size $<\kappa$ containing $I$, we show how to fi …

Is the product of commuting ultrafilters an ultrafilter?

The following may give a hint: Suppose $U$ is a uniform ultrafilter on $\omega$ and $W$ is an ultrafilter on $\kappa$ such that $W$ commutes with $U$, then $W$ is countably complete. Otherwise, there …

Idea behind the proof of consistency of club filter of $\omega_1$ is ultrafilter + ZF + DC

I've been trying to understand Radin Forcing and some of its applications, one of which is the use of it to prove the consistency of ''Club filter of $\omega_1$ is an ultrafilter + ZF + DC''. However, …

Consistency of Strong reflection principle with the existence of a Suslin tree

In Woodin's book "The Axiom of Determinacy, Forcing Axioms, and the Nonstationary Ideal" Remark 2.55 (5), it states SRP by Todorcevic (defined below) is consistent with the existence of a Suslin tree …

A possible characterization of weakly compact cardinals

Aside from the well-known characterization of weakly compact cardinals in terms of the usual partition calculus, I've been wondering if there are other characterizations that are variants of the typic …

Consistency of Rado's conjecture with not CH

Rado's conjecture holds in Mitchell's model (of course, start with a strongly compact instead of a weakly compact) granted the following: If $T$ if a non-special tree of height $\omega_1$, then $T$ re …

Consistency of Rado's conjecture with not CH

Rado's conjecture (one of many equivalent formulations) states: any non-special tree has a non-special subtree of cardinality $\aleph_1$. "Special" means a tree can be decomposed into countably many …
