Supercompactness and Failures of GCH
Original language description
Let $kappa < lambda$ be regular cardinals. We say that an embedding $j: Vto M$ with critical point $kappa$ is emph{$lambda$-tall} if $lambda<j(kappa)$ and $M$ is closed under $kappa$-sequences in $V$. Silver showed that GCH can fail at a measurable cardinal $kappa$, starting with $kappa$ being $kappa^{++}$-supercompact. Later, Woodin improved this result, starting from the optimal hypothesis of a $kappa^{++}$-tall measurable cardinal $kappa$. Now more generally, suppose that $kappa le lambda$ are regular and one wishes the GCH to fail at $lambda$ with $kappa$ being $lambda$-supercompact. Silver's methods show that this can be done starting with $kappa$ being $lambda^{++}$-supercompact (note that Silver's result above is the special case when $kappa = lambda$). One can ask if there is an analogue of Woodin's result for $lambda$-supercompactness. We answer this question in the following strong sense: starting with the GCH and $kappa$ being $lambda$-supercompact
