For any nondecreasing sequence (lambda2,lambda3, ...) of infinite cardinals it is consistent that there is a linear order L such that L^n has an antichain of cardinality lambda_n, but not one of cardinality lambda_n^+ .", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "1999-02-08T16:01:49.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "03E35", "03E04", "06A05" ], "keywords": [ "linear order", "singular strong limit cardinals", "cardinality lambda", "regular cardinals lambda", "singular omega-limits" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 9, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "1999math......2054G" } } }
