A multiverse perspective on the axiom of constructiblity
[article]
2012
arXiv
pre-print
The argument appears to lose its force, in contrast, on an upwardly extensible concept of set, in light of the various facts showing that models of set theory generally have extensions to models of V = ...
I shall argue that the commonly held V not equal L via maximize position, which rejects the axiom of constructibility V = L on the basis that it is restrictive, implicitly takes a stand in the pluralist ...

A New Hope for the Symbolic, for the Subject

The argument presented is that the prevailing and sustained incoherence of the mathematical ontology (i.e. set theory) underscores a contemporary deficit of humanity's symbolic organization which, in turn ...

As such, the extender models are constructed as refinements of V, which preserve enough extenders from V to witness that the large cardinal axiom holds. 102 By the year 2000, the inner model program ...

Large cardinals and definable well-orders on the universe
2009
Journal of Symbolic Logic (JSL)
We use a reverse Easton forcing iteration to obtain a universe with a definable well-order, while preserving the GCH and proper classes of a variety of very large cardinals. ...
By choosing the cardinals at which coding occurs sufficiently sparsely, we are able to lift the embeddings witnessing the large cardinal properties without having to meet any non-trivial master conditions ...

Strong Axioms of Infinity and the Search for V
2011
Proceedings of the International Congress of Mathematicians 2010 (ICM 2010)
Gödel's Axiom of Constructibility, V = L, provides a conception of the Universe of Sets which is perfectly concise modulo only large cardinal axioms which are strong axioms of infinity. ...
However the axiom V = L limits the large cardinal axioms which can hold and so the axiom is false. ...

The Axiom of Infinity and Transformations j: V → V
2010
Bulletin of Symbolic Logic
The resulting transformation V → V is strong enough to account for virtually all large cardinals, but is at the same time a natural generalization of an assertion about transformations V → V known to be ...
An axiom asserting the existence of a large cardinal can naturally be viewed as a strong Axiom of Infinity. ...
In a similar vein, from a model of ZFC together with arbitrarily large weak Reinhardt cardinals, one can obtain a model of ZFC in which the weak Reinhardt cardinals are bounded in the universe: Starting ...

An equiconsistency for universal indestructibility
2010
Journal of Symbolic Logic (JSL)
The equiconsistency is relative to a cardinal weaker in consistency strength than a Woodin cardinal, Stewart Baldwin's notion of hyperstrong cardinal. ...
We obtain an equiconsistency for a weak form of universal indestructibility for strongness. ...
Thus, for any λ which is sufficiently large, there is an elementary embedding witnessing the λ strongness of κ in K generated by a (κ, λ)-extender such that in the target model, κ is a strong cardinal. ...

Internal Consistency and the Inner Model Hypothesis

There is a forcing extension L[G] of L in which GCH fails at every regular cardinal. Assume that the universe V of all sets is rich in the sense that it contains inner models with large cardinals. ...
We say that a statement is internally consistent iff it holds in some inner model, under the assumption that there are innermodels with large cardinals. ...

The purpose of this paper is to illustrate the hypothesis, and discuss it with respect to the current debate on the consequences of independence results in set theory. ...

Model Theoretic Characterizations of Large Cardinals Revisited
[article]
2022
arXiv
pre-print
In [Bon20], model theoretic characterizations of several established large cardinal notions were given. ...
We continue this work, by establishing such characterizations for Woodin cardinals (and variants), various virtual large cardinals, and subtle cardinals. ...
We can also assume that our universe is the V κ of a much larger ZFC-model in which κ is subtle and the classes in this case are the V κ+1 of this model. ...

Reinhardt cardinals in inner models

A cardinal is weakly Reinhardt if it is the critical point of an elementary embedding from the universe of sets into a model that contains the double powerset of every ordinal. ...
This note establishes the equiconsistency of a proper class of weakly Reinhardt cardinals with a proper class of Reinhardt cardinals in the context of second-order set theory without the Axiom of Choice ...
Even though we work without AC, for us a cardinal is an ordinal number that is not in bijection with any smaller ordinal. ...
