A new model for all C-sequences are trivial
Joint work with Zhixing You and Jiachen Yuan. Abstract. We construct a model in which all C-sequences are trivial, yet there exists a $\kappa$-Souslin tree with full vanishing levels. This answers a question from a previous paper, and provides an … Continue reading

Ketonen’s question and other cardinal sins
Joint work with Zhixing You and Jiachen Yuan. Abstract. Answering a question of Ketonen from the late 1970’s, it is proved that a weakly compact cardinal carrying an indecomposable ultrafilter need not be measurable. The result is obtained by analyzing … Continue reading
Squares, ultrafilters and forcing axioms
Joint work with Chris Lambie-Hanson and Jing Zhang. Abstract. We study the interplay of the three families of combinatorial objects or principles. Specifically, we show the following. Strong forcing axioms, in general incompatible with the existence of indexed squares, can … 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
The eightfold way
Joint work with James Cummings, Sy-David Friedman, Menachem Magidor, and Dima Sinapova. Abstract. Three central combinatorial properties in set theory are the tree property, the approachability property and stationary reflection. We prove the mutual independence of these properties by showing … Continue reading
Reflection on the coloring and chromatic numbers
Joint work with Chris Lambie-Hanson. Abstract. We prove that reflection of the coloring number of graphs is consistent with non-reflection of the chromatic number. Moreover, it is proved that incompactness for the chromatic number of graphs (with arbitrarily large gaps) … Continue reading
