More notions of forcing add a square
Joint work with Yair Hayut and Zhixing You. Abstract. Foreman and Magidor showed that the continuum hypothesis implies the existence of a countably-closed $\aleph_2$-cc forcing notion $\mathbb P$ for adding $\square_{\omega_1}$. Here, we show that $\mathbb P$ may consistently be … Continue reading

Diamond on Kurepa trees
Joint work with Ziemek Kostana and Saharon Shelah. Abstract. We introduce a new weak variation of diamond that is meant to guess only the branches of a Kurepa tree. We demonstrate that this variation is considerably weaker than diamond by … Continue reading
A club guessing toolbox I
Joint work with Tanmay Inamdar. Abstract. Club guessing principles were introduced by Shelah as a weakening of Jensen’s diamond. Most spectacularly, they were used to prove Shelah’s ZFC bound on the power of the first singular cardinal. These principles have … Continue reading
Inclusion modulo nonstationary
Joint work with Gabriel Fernandes and Miguel Moreno. Abstract. A classical theorem of Hechler asserts that the structure $\left(\omega^\omega,\le^*\right)$ is universal in the sense that for any $\sigma$-directed poset $\mathbb P$ with no maximal element, there is a ccc forcing … Continue reading
Weak square and stationary reflection
Joint work with Gunter Fuchs. Abstract. It is well-known that the square principle $\square_\lambda$ entails the existence of a non-reflecting stationary subset of $\lambda^+$, whereas the weak square principle $\square^*_\lambda$ does not. Here we show that if $\mu^{cf(\lambda)}<\lambda$ for all $\mu<\lambda$, … Continue reading

Distributive Aronszajn trees
Joint work with Ari Meir Brodsky. Abstract. Ben-David and Shelah proved that if $\lambda$ is a singular strong-limit cardinal and $2^\lambda=\lambda^+$, then $\square^*_\lambda$ entails the existence of a $\lambda$-distributive $\lambda^+$-Aronszajn tree. Here, it is proved that the same conclusion remains … Continue reading
Square with built-in diamond-plus
Joint work with Ralf Schindler. Abstract. We formulate combinatorial principles that combine the square principle with various strong forms of diamond, and prove that the strongest amongst them holds in $L$ for every infinite cardinal. As an application, we prove that … Continue reading

Putting a diamond inside the square
Abstract. By a 35-year-old theorem of Shelah, $\square_\lambda+\diamondsuit(\lambda^+)$ does not imply square-with-built-in-diamond_lambda for regular uncountable cardinals $\lambda$. Here, it is proved that $\square_\lambda+\diamondsuit(\lambda^+)$ is equivalent to square-with-built-in-diamond_lambda for every singular cardinal $\lambda$. Downloads: Citation information: A. Rinot, Putting a diamond inside … Continue reading

The search for diamonds
Abstract: This is a review I wrote for the Bulletin of Symbolic Logic on the following papers: Saharon Shelah, Middle Diamond, Archive for Mathematical Logic, vol. 44 (2005), pp. 527–560. Saharon Shelah, Diamonds, Proceedings of the American Mathematical Society, vol. … Continue reading
