Jensen’s diamond principle and its relatives

This is chapter 6 in the book Set Theory and Its Applications (ISBN: 0821848127). Abstract: We survey some recent results on the validity of Jensen’s diamond principle at successor cardinals. We also discuss weakening of this principle such as club … Continue reading

On guessing generalized clubs at the successors of regulars

Abstract: Konig, Larson and Yoshinobu initiated the study of principles for guessing generalized clubs, and introduced a construction of an higher Souslin tree from the strong guessing principle. Complementary to the author’s work on the validity of diamond and non-saturation … Continue reading

Transforming rectangles into squares, with applications to strong colorings

Abstract: It is proved that every singular cardinal  λ admits a function rts:[λ+]2[λ+]2 that transforms rectangles into squares. That is, whenever A,B are cofinal subsets of λ+, we have rts[AB]CC, for some cofinal subset Cλ+. As a … Continue reading

The Ostaszewski square, and homogeneous Souslin trees

Abstract: Assume GCH and let λ denote an uncountable cardinal. We prove that if ◻λ holds, then this may be  witnessed by a coherent sequence Cαα<λ+ with the following remarkable guessing property: For every sequence Aii<λContinue reading
