In addition, we prove several global results showing how the entire class of weakly compact cardinals, a proper class, can be made to coincide with the class of unfoldable cardinals, with the class of weakly measurable cardinals or with the class of nearly $\\theta_\\kappa$-supercompact cardinals $\\kappa$, for nearly any desired function $\\kappa\\mapsto\\theta_\\kappa$. These results answer several questions that had been open in the literature and extend to these large cardinals the identity-crises phenomenon, first identified by Magidor with the strongly compact cardinals.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2013-05-25T19:35:26.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "weakly compact cardinal", "weakly measurable", "unfoldable", "suitable large cardinal hypotheses", "identity-crises phenomenon" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 25, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2013arXiv1305.5961C" } } }
