Abstract

An inaccessible cardinal κ is supercompact when (κ, λ)-ITP holds for all λ ≥ κ. We prove that if there is a model of ZFC with two supercompact cardinals, then there is a model of ZFC where simultaneously \({(\aleph_2, \mu)}\) -ITP and \({(\aleph_3, \mu')}\) -ITP hold, for all \({\mu\geq \aleph_2}\) and \({\mu'\geq \aleph_3}\) .
