Abstract

It is proved that ifκ is supercompact, there are at least (2 P κ(β))+normal ultrafilters overP k (β) and ifV=H.O.D. exactly (22• P κ(β)) normal ultrafilters.

Additional information

This is a part of the author’s Ph.D. thesis prepared under the supervision of Professor Azriel Levy for whose help the author is grateful.

In 1966–67, Solovay proved Theorem 1 for the caseβ=κ without the condition of extendability. The same result, under a somewhat weaker assumption was proved by Namba in 1967–68. As noted by Solovay, his proof can be adapted to a generalβ (under weaker assumptions; if |P k (β) |=β it is only needed that ℵ is 2β-supercompact). Solovay’s result will be published in [3].
