Scales in the Point Spectrum

Tom Benhamou

We study the Point/Tukey spectrum of a general directed set using PCF theoretic tools and uncover basic connections between the theories. In particular, we prove that if the suprem…

On the Asymptotic Behavior of Guessing Sequences

Tom Benhamou, Sean LeClair

We continue the study of probabilistic and topological properties of the set of reals that are being guessed by a diamond sequence from \cite{Benhamou_Wu}. We show that the existen…

Eventual Capture on a Measurable Cardinal

Tom Benhamou, Corey Bacal Switzer

We continue the study from \cite{BrendleFreidmanMontoya, vandervlugtlocalizationcardinals} of localization cardinals $\mfb_κ(\in^*)$ and $\mfd_κ(\in^*)$ and their variants at regul…

Supercompact Measures and the Galvin Property

Tom Benhamou, Ben-Zion Weltsch

We study saturation properties of -complete measures on , where can be either regular or singular. In particular, we prove that in contrast to Galvin's theorem, the…

Ultrafilters over Successor Cardinals and the Tukey Order

Tom Benhamou, Justin T. Moore, Luke Serafin

We study ultrafilters on regular uncountable cardinals, with a primary focus on , and particularly in relation to the Tukey order on directed sets. Results include the indepen…

Isomorphism Classes of Generating Sets

Tom Benhamou, James Cummings, Gabriel Goldberg +2

We introduce a new class of ultrafilters which generalizes the well-known class of simple -point ultrafilters. We prove that for any well-founded -directed partial order $\ma…

Cardinals of the -Filter Games

Tom Benhamou, Victoria Gitman

We investigate forms of filter extension properties in the two-cardinal setting involving filters on . We generalize the filter games introduced by Holy and Schlicht in \ci…

Measures that violate the Generalized Continuum Hypothesis

Tom Benhamou, Gabriel Goldberg

A simple \(P_λ\)-point on a regular cardinal \(κ\) is a uniform ultrafilter on \(κ\) with a mod-bounded decreasing generating sequence of length \(λ\). We prove that if there is a…

Stationary Reflection and the Failure OF SCH at

Tom Benhamou, Dima Sinapova

Combining stationary reflection (a compactness property) with the failure of SCH (an instance of non-compactness) has been a long-standing theme. We obtain this at ,…

On Ultrapowers and Cohesive Ultrafilters

Tom Benhamou

We characterize the Tukey order, the Galvin property/ Cohesive ultrafilters from \cite{Kanamori1978} in terms of ultrapowers. We use this characterization to measure the distance b…

Diamond principles and Tukey-top ultrafilters on a countable set

Tom Benhamou, Fanxin Wu

We provide two types of guessing principles for ultrafilter () on which form subclasses of Tukey-top ultrafilters, and construct s…

Commutativity of Cofinal Types

Tom Benhamou

We continue the study of the pseudo-intersection property with respect to an ideal introduced in \cite{TomNatasha2}. Our theory applies to the study of the Tukey types of general s…

A Small Ultrafilter Number at Every Singular Cardinal

Tom Benhamou, Sittinon Jirattikansakul

We obtain a small ultrafilter number at . Moreover, we develop a version of the overlapping strong extender forcing with collapses which can keep the top cardinal …

Prikry Forcing and Tree Prikry Forcing of Various Filters

Tom Benhamou

In this paper, we answer a question asked in "A minimal Prikry type forcing for singularizing a measurable cardinal" regarding a Mathias criteria for Tree-Prikry forcing. Also we w…
