A Note on a Theorem of Apter
Rahman Mohammadpour, Otto Rajala, Sebastiano Thei
We show that the consistency of is measurable implies the consistency of is the least strongly regular cardinal…
Todorcevic's Problem on Rado's Conjecture
Monroe Eskew, Rahman Mohammadpour
In his Mostowski lecture in Wrocław in 2024, Stevo Todorčević asked whether it is consistent that Rado's Conjecture holds at two successive cardinals. We show that it is consistent…
Martin's Axiom and Weak Kurepa Hypothesis
Rahman Mohammadpour
I show that it is consistent relative to the consistency of a Mahlo cardinal that Martin's axiom holds at , but the weak Kurepa Hypothesis fails. This answers a question posed…
On Indestructible Strongly Guessing Models
Rahman Mohammadpour, Boban Velickovic
In \cite{MV} we defined and proved the consistency of the principle which implies that many consequences of strong forcing axioms hold simultaneously at …
A Road To Compactness Through Guessing Models
Rahman Mohammadpour
The compactness phenomenon is one of the featured aspects of structuralism in mathematics. In simple and broad words, a compactness property holds in a structure if a related prope…
Specialising Trees With Small Approximations II
Rahman Mohammadpour
We show that the existence of a well-known type of ideals on a regular cardinal implies a compactness property concerning the specialisability of a tree of height with no c…
Indestructible Guessing Models And The Approximation Property
Rahman Mohammadpour
In this short note, we shall prove some observations regarding the connection between indestructible -guessing models and the -approximation property of forcing notions.
Almost Strong Properness
Rahman Mohammadpour
We introduce the forcing property "almost strong properness" which sits between properness and strong properness. As an application, we introduce a simple forcing with finite condi…
Guessing models and the approachability ideal
Rahman Mohammadpour, Boban Velickovic
Starting with two supercompact cardinals we produce a generic extension of the universe in which a principle that we call holds. This principle implies ${\rm…
The tree property at double successors of singular cardinals of uncountable cofinality
Mohammad Golshani, Rahman Mohammadpour
Assuming the existence of a strong cardinal and a measurable cardinal above it, we force a generic extension in which is a singular strong limit cardinal of any prescribed…
A Mid Version of Hamkins' Maximality Principle
Rahman Mohammadpour
We present new, streamlined proofs of certain maximality principles studied by Hamkins and Woodin. Moreover, we formulate an intermediate maximality principle, which is shown here…
Cardinal collapsing and product forcing
Mohammad Golshani, Rahman Mohammadpour
Suppose is a singular strong limit cardinal of countable cofinality and let be an incrasing sequence of regular cardinals cofinal in . We show th…
