In mathematics, a remarkable cardinal is a certain kind of large cardinal number.
A cardinal κ is called remarkable if for all regular cardinals θ > κ, there exist π, M, λ, σ, N and ρ such that
π : M → Hθ is an elementary embedding
M is countable and transitive
π(λ) = κ
σ : M → N is an elementary embedding with critical point λ
N is countable and transitive
ρ = M ∩ Ord is a regular cardinal in N
σ(λ) > ρ
M = HρN, i.e., M ∈ N and N ⊨ "M is the set of all sets that are hereditarily smaller than ρ"
Equivalently, is remarkable if and only if for every there is such that in some forcing extension , there is an elementary embedding satisfying . Although the definition is similar to one of the definitions of supercompact cardinals, the elementary embedding here only has to exist in , not in .
