Tameness, powerful images, and large cardinals

arXiv:1902.10212

Abstract

We provide comprehensive, level-by-level characterizations of large cardinals, in the range from weakly compact to strongly compact, by closure properties of powerful images of accessible functors. In the process, we show that these properties are also equivalent to various forms of tameness for abstract elementary classes. This systematizes and extends results of [BU17], [BTR16], [Lie18], and [LR16].
