Projective Games on the Reals


الملخص بالإنكليزية

Let $M^sharp_n(mathbb{R})$ denote the minimal active iterable extender model which has $n$ Woodin cardinals and contains all reals, if it exists, in which case we denote by $M_n(mathbb{R})$ the class-sized model obtained by iterating the topmost measure of $M_n(mathbb{R})$ class-many times. We characterize the sets of reals which are $Sigma_1$-definable from $mathbb{R}$ over $M_n(mathbb{R})$, under the assumption that projective games on reals are determined: (1) for even $n$, $Sigma_1^{M_n(mathbb{R})} = Game^mathbb{R}Pi^1_{n+1}$; (2) for odd $n$, $Sigma_1^{M_n(mathbb{R})} = Game^mathbb{R}Sigma^1_{n+1}$. This generalizes a theorem of Martin and Steel for $L(mathbb{R})$, i.e., the case $n=0$. As consequences of the proof, we see that determinacy of all projective games with moves in $mathbb{R}$ is equivalent to the statement that $M^sharp_n(mathbb{R})$ exists for all $ninmathbb{N}$, and that determinacy of all projective games of length $omega^2$ with moves in $mathbb{N}$ is equivalent to the statement that $M^sharp_n(mathbb{R})$ exists and satisfies $mathsf{AD}$ for all $ninmathbb{N}$.
