Research

Gitik proved the consistency of "all uncountable cardinals are singular" (a strong negation of the axiom of choice) from the consistency of "there is a proper class of strongly compact cardinals". He further proved the equiconsistency of the following statements: Gitik discovered several methods for building models of ZFC with complicated Cardinal Arithmetic structure. His main results deal with consistency and equi-consistency of non-trivial patterns of the Power Function over singular cardinals.
