Another ordering of the ten cardinal characteristics in Cicho\'n's diagram

TL;DR

This paper demonstrates the consistency of a new ordering of the ten cardinal characteristics in Cichoń's diagram, extending previous results with additional inequalities assuming large cardinal axioms.

Contribution

It introduces a novel consistent ordering of the ten cardinal characteristics in Cichoń's diagram, assuming four strongly compact cardinals, expanding the known possible configurations.

Findings

New ordering of cardinal characteristics established

Assumption of four strongly compact cardinals required

Extends previous consistency results in set theory

Abstract

It is consistent that \[ \aleph_1 < \mathrm{add}(\mathrm{Null}) < \mathrm{add}(\mathrm{Meager})= \mathfrak{b} < \mathrm{cov}(\mathrm{Null}) < \mathrm{non}(\mathrm{Meager}) < \mathrm{cov}(\mathrm{Meager}) = 2^{\aleph_0}. \] Assuming four strongly compact cardinals, it is consistent that \[ \aleph_1 < \mathrm{add}(\mathrm{Null}) <\mathrm{add}(\mathrm{Meager})=\mathfrak{b} < \mathrm{cov}(\mathrm{Null}) < \mathrm{non}(\mathrm{Meager}) < \mathrm{cov}(\mathrm{Meager}) < \mathrm{non}(\mathrm{Null}) < \mathrm{cof}(\mathrm{Meager})= \mathfrak{d} < \mathrm{cof}(\mathrm{Null}) < 2^{\aleph_0}. \]
