Abstract

Suppose κ is a supercompact cardinal and λ≥κ. In [3], we studied the relationship between the weak partition property and the partition property for normal ultrafilters on Pκλ. In this paper we study a hierarchy of properties intermediate between the weak partition property and the partition property. Given appropriate large cardinal assumptions, we show that these properties are not all equivalent.
