Abstract

Assume ZFC. Let κ be a cardinal. Recall that a <κ-ground is a transitive proper class W modelling ZFC such that V is a generic extension of W via a forcing ℙ∈ W of cardinality <κ, and the κ-mantle is the intersection of all <κ-grounds. Assume there is a Woodin cardinal and a proper class of measurables, and let x be a real of sufficiently high Turing degree. Let κ be a limit cardinal of L[x] of uncountable cofinality in L[x]. Using methods from Woodin's analysis of HODL[x,G], we analyze the κ-mantle of L[x], and show that it models ZFC + GCH + "There is a Woodin cardinal". Moreover, we show that it is a fully iterable strategy mouse (analogous to HODL[x,G]). We also analyze another form of "local mantle", partly assuming also a weak form of Turing determinacy. We also compute bounds on how much iteration strategy can be added to M1 before M1^# is added.
