May the successor of a singular cardinal be Jonsson?
Abstract: Whether the successor of a singular cardinal can be Jónsson is a very old and famous open problem in set theory. Here, we collect necessary conditions for an affirmative answer, and put forward a list of closely-related questions in … Continue reading

Sigma-Prikry forcing III: Down to Aleph_omega
Joint work with Alejandro Poveda and Dima Sinapova. Abstract. We prove the consistency of the failure of the singular cardinals hypothesis at $\aleph_\omega$ together with the reflection of all stationary subsets of $\aleph_{\omega+1}$. This shows that two classical results of … Continue reading
Sigma-Prikry forcing II: Iteration Scheme
Joint work with Alejandro Poveda and Dima Sinapova. Abstract. In Part I of this series, we introduced a class of notions of forcing which we call $\Sigma$-Prikry, and showed that many of the known Prikry-type notions of forcing that centers … Continue reading
Knaster and friends II: The C-sequence number
Joint work with Chris Lambie-Hanson. Abstract. Motivated by a characterization of weakly compact cardinals due to Todorcevic, we introduce a new cardinal characteristic, the C-sequence number, which can be seen as a measure of the compactness of a regular uncountable … Continue reading
Sigma-Prikry forcing I: The Axioms
Joint work with Alejandro Poveda and Dima Sinapova. Abstract. We introduce a class of notions of forcing which we call $\Sigma$-Prikry, and show that many of the known Prikry-type notions of forcing that centers around singular cardinals of countable cofinality … Continue reading
Partitioning a reflecting stationary set
Joint work with Maxwell Levine. Abstract. We address the question of whether a reflecting stationary set may be partitioned into two or more reflecting stationary subsets, providing various affirmative answers in ZFC. As an application to singular cardinals combinatorics, we infer … Continue reading
Ordinal definable subsets of singular cardinals
Joint work with James Cummings, Sy-David Friedman, Menachem Magidor, and Dima Sinapova. Abstract. A remarkable result by Shelah states that if $\kappa$ is a singular strong limit cardinal of uncountable cofinality then there is a subset $x$ of $\kappa$ such … Continue reading
Aspects of singular cofinality
Abstract. We study properties of closure operators of singular cofinality, and introduce several ZFC sufficient and equivalent conditions for the existence of antichain sequences in posets of singular cofinality. We also notice that the Proper Forcing Axiom implies the Milner-Sauer … Continue reading
On the consistency strength of the Milner-Sauer conjecture
Abstract: In their paper from 1981, Milner and Sauer conjectured that for any poset $\mathbb P$, if $\text{cf}(\mathbb P)$ is a singular cardinal $\lambda$, then $\mathbb P$ must contain an antichain of size $\text{cf}(\lambda)$. The conjecture is consistent and known … Continue reading
Antichains in partially ordered sets of singular cofinality
Abstract: In their paper from 1981, Milner and Sauer conjectured that for any poset $\mathbb P$, if $\text{cf}(\mathbb P)$ is a singular cardinal $\lambda$, then $\mathbb P$ must contain an antichain of size $\text{cf}(\lambda)$. The main result of of this … Continue reading
