Hierarchies of forcing axioms I
Abstract. We prove new upper bound theorems on the consistency strengths of SPFA(), SPFA(-linked) and SPFA(+ -cc). Our results are in terms of (, )-subcompactness, which is a new l...

Perfect trees and elementary embeddings
An important technique in large cardinal set theory is that of extending an elementary embedding j : M N between inner models to an elementary embedding j : M[G] N[G] between ge...

On the structure of the Medvedev lattice
We investigate the structure of the Medvedev lattice as a partial order. We prove that every interval in the lattice is either finite, in which case it is isomorphic to a finite B...

Randomness, lowness and degrees
We say that A LR B if every B-random number is A-random. Intuitively this means that if oracle A can identify some patterns on some real , oracle B can also find patterns on . In o...
