Abstract

This chapter discusses the successors of singular cardinals and explains the situation for the successor of a strong limit singular cardinal λ. The chapter finds a special subset S* (λ+), from which the stationary subsets of λ+ can be found, which can be stopped from being stationary by μ-complete forcing. If λ is a singular strong limit, then for every normal two place function d from λ+ to κ = cfλ, So (d)≡ Sl (d) ∪ CF(λ+,≤ κ) ≡ λ+ - S* ( λ+) modDλ+. Therefore, So (d) does not depend on d up to equivalence modDλ+.
