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

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
