Ketonen’s question and other cardinal sins
Joint work with Zhixing You and Jiachen Yuan. Abstract. Intersection models of generic extensions obtained from a commutative projection systems of notions of forcing has recently regained interest, especially in the study of descriptive set theory. Here, we show that … 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 only guess the branches of a Kurepa tree. We demonstrate that this variation is considerably weaker than diamond by … Continue reading

Proxy principles in combinatorial set theory
Joint work with Ari Meir Brodsky and Shira Yadai. Abstract. The parameterized proxy principles were introduced by Brodsky and Rinot in a 2017 paper as new foundations for the construction of $\kappa$-Souslin trees in a uniform way that does not … 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

The vanishing levels of a tree
Joint work with Shira Yadai and Zhixing You. Abstract. We initiate the study of the spectrum $Vspec(\kappa)$ of sets that can be realized as the vanishing levels $V(\mathbf T)$ of a normal $\kappa$-tree $\mathbf T$. The latter is an invariant in … Continue reading
Full Souslin trees at small cardinals
Joint work with Shira Yadai and Zhixing You. Abstract. A $\kappa$-tree is full if each of its limit levels omits no more than one potential branch. Kunen asked whether a full $\kappa$-Souslin tree may consistently exist. Shelah gave an affirmative … Continue reading
A counterexample related to a theorem of Komjáth and Weiss
Joint work with Rodrigo Rey Carvalho. Abstract. In a paper from 1987, Komjath and Weiss proved that for every regular topological space $X$ of character less than $\mathfrak b$, if $X\rightarrow(\text{top }{\omega+1})^1_\omega$, then $X\rightarrow(\text{top }{\alpha})^1_\omega$ for all $\alpha<\omega_1$. In addition, … Continue reading

A Shelah group in ZFC
Joint work with Márk Poór. Abstract. In a paper from 1980, Shelah constructed an uncountable group all of whose proper subgroups are countable. Assuming the continuum hypothesis, he constructed an uncountable group $G$ that moreover admits an integer $n$ satisfying … 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
