Synopsis

Large cardinal hypotheses play a central role in modern set theory. One important way to understand such hypotheses is to construct concrete, minimal universes, or "core models", satisfying them. Since Gödel's pioneering work on the universe of constructible sets, several larger core models satisfying stronger hypotheses have been constructed, and these have proved quite useful. Here the author extends this theory so that it can produce core models satisfying "There is a Woodin cardinal", a large cardinal hypothesis which is the focus of much current research. The book is intended for advanced graduate students and reseachers in set theory.

Revue de presse

'Steel's monograph is a masterpiece in terms of both research and exposition. The reviewer ranks it amongst the most significant works in set theory, because of its fundamental advances and broadly applicable new methods. It is required reading for anyone wishing to get up to date on core model theory, and it leads to many beautiful open problems for research.' Ernest Schimmerling, Journal of Symbolic Logic
