The definable tree property for successors of cardinals

Abstract

Strengthening a result of Leshem (J Symb Logic 65(3):1204–1214, 2000), we prove that the consistency strength of $$\textit{GCH}$$ GCH together with the definable tree property for all successors of regular cardinals is precisely equal to the consistency strength of existence of proper class many $$\varPi ^{1}_1$$ Π 1 1 -reflecting cardinals. Moreover it is proved that if $$\kappa $$ κ is a supercompact cardinal and $$\lambda > \kappa $$ λ > κ is measurable, then there is a generic extension of the universe in which $$\kappa $$ κ is a strong limit singular cardinal of cofinality $$\omega , ~ \lambda =\kappa ^+,$$ ω , λ = κ + , and the definable tree property holds at $$\kappa ^+$$ κ + . Additionally we can have $$2^\kappa > \kappa ^+,$$ 2 κ > κ + , so that $$\textit{SCH}$$ SCH fails at $$\kappa $$ κ .
