Combinatorial Functions and Indecomposable Cardinals
نویسنده
چکیده
Combinatorial functions are used to replace indecomposable cardinals in certain types of set theoretic arguments. This allows us to extend decidability results from nonchoice set theories to set theories with a principle of linear ordering.

Compositions of Sierpiński-zygmund Functions and Related Combinatorial Cardinals
A cardinal related to compositions of Sierpiński-Zygmund functions will be considered. A combinatorial characterization of the cardinal is given and is used to answer some questions of K. Ciesielski and T. Natkaniec. It is shown that the bounding number of the continuum may be strictly smaller than continuum.
متن کاملAnnual Meeting of the Association for Symbolic Logic: Philadelphia 1981
S OF PAPERS 899 Indecomposability is a weakening of the concept of measurability; indeed, inaccessible cardinals carrying indecomposable ultrafilters exhibit some of the strong reflection properties of measurable cardinals. Silver asked whether the two notions were actually equivalent for inaccessible cardinals, i.e., whether an inaccessible cardinal carrying an indecomposable ultrafilter must ...
متن کاملThe Combinatorics of Combinatorial Coding by a Real
We lay the combinatorial foundations for [5] by setting up and proving the essential properties of the coding apparatus for singular cardinals. We also prove another result concerning the coding apparatus for inaccessible cardinals.
متن کاملCardinals Related to the Minimal Tower Problem
Motivated by the minimal tower problem, an earlier work studied diagonalizations of covers where the covers are related to linear quasiorders (τ -covers). We deal with two types of combinatorial questions which arise from this study. (1) Two new cardinals introduced in the topological study are expressed in terms of well known cardinals characteristics of the continuum. (2) We study the additiv...
متن کاملMaking All Cardinals Almost Ramsey ∗ † ‡ Arthur
We examine combinatorial aspects and consistency strength properties of almost Ramsey cardinals. Without the Axiom of Choice, successor cardinals may be almost Ramsey. From fairly mild supercompactness assumptions, we construct a model of ZF + ¬ACω in which every infinite cardinal is almost Ramsey. Core model arguments show that strong assumptions are necessary. Without successors of singular c...
