Abstract

A number of related combinatorial properties of a cardinal κ contradicting AC are examined. Chief results include: (1) For many ordinals γ, к → (к)γ implies к к (к). (2) For many ordinals γ, if к к (к) αγ for all α<κ, then κ is γ-weakly ineffable. (3) For all infinite cardinals γ, к к (к) implies κ is <γ-weakly ineffable.
