On Extensions of Supercompactness
We show that, in terms of both implication and consistency strength, an extendible with a larger strong cardinal is stronger than an enhanced supercompact, which is itself stronger than a hypercompact, which is itself weaker than an extendible.

Chang's conjecture may fail at supercompact cardinals (submitted)
We prove a revised version of Laver's indestructibility theorem which slightly improves over the classical result. An application yields the consistency of $(κ^+,κ)\notcc(\aleph\_1,\aleph\_0)$ when $κ$ is supercompact. The actual proofs show that $ω\_1$-regressive Kurepa-trees are consistent above a supercompact cardinal even though ${\rm MM}$ destroys

On the consistency strength of the proper forcing axiom
In recent work, the second author extended combinatorial principles due to Jech and Magidor that characterize certain large cardinal properties so that they can also hold true for small cardinals.

Compact Spaces, Compact Cardinals, and Elementary Submodels
If M is an elementary submodel and X a topological space, then XM denotes the set X \M given the topology generated by the open subsets of X which are members of M . Call a compact space squashable iff for some M , XM is compact and XM 6= X. The first

Definable tree property for uncountable regular cardinals
The primary goal of this paper is to establish a model of $ZFC$ wherein the definable tree property is affirmed for all uncountable regular cardinals. This endeavor commences with the utilization of both a supercompact cardinal and a measurable cardinal ...

The inner model problem for supercompact cardinals, one of the central open problems in modern set theory, asks whether there is a canonical model of set theory with a supercompact cardinal.

A framework for forcing constructions at successors of singular cardinals
We describe a framework for proving consistency results about singular cardinals of arbitrary cofinality and their successors. This framework allows the construction of models in which the Singular Cardinals Hypothesis fails at a singular cardinal κ of ...

The Proper Forcing Axiom (PFA) represents a significant strengthening of Martin's Axiom, asserting the existence of generic filters for a broad class of proper partial orders. This monograph investigates the consistency strength of PFA, situating it within the hierarchy of large cardinals.

The first measurable can be the first inaccessible cardinal
In [8] the second and third authors showed that if the least inaccessible cardinal is the least measurable cardinal, then there is an inner model with $o(κ)\geq2$.

Force to change large cardinal strength
This dissertation includes many theorems which show how to change large cardinal properties with forcing. I consider in detail the degrees of inaccessible cardinals (an analogue of the classical degrees of Mahlo cardinals) and provide new large cardinal ...
