Which of these cardinals are regular? (Choose all that apply; assume ZFC.)
The cumulative hierarchy starts , . How many elements does have?
Why is not measurable, even though non-principal ultrafilters on exist? (Consider countable completeness.)
In the proof that for inaccessible , which axiom's verification uses the regularity of in an essential way?
Suppose ZFC proved "there is an inaccessible cardinal". What would follow?
Write IC for "there is an inaccessible cardinal". Which statements are correct? (Choose all that apply; assume ZFC + IC is consistent.)
Which Lean predicate correctly expresses that an ultrafilter U : Ultrafilter α is κ-complete?
In the proof that a measurable is a strong limit, we take an injection with and sets deciding whether . Why does have at most one element?
In Scott's proof that a measurable cardinal implies , we assume and take with critical point , the least measurable. Why is ?
Write laver_table(n) returning a dict rows with rows[p][q - 1] = p * q in the Laver table on : row is , and for fill the rows from down to using and . Then write period(row) returning the least period of a list.
