%0 Journal Article %T Superatomic Boolean algebras constructed from strongly unbounded functions %A Juan Carlos Martinez %A Lajos Soukup %J Mathematics %D 2010 %I arXiv %X Using Koszmider's strongly unbounded functions, we show the following consistency result: Suppose that $\kappa,\lambda$ are infinite cardinals such that $\kappa^{+++} \leq \lambda$, $\kappa^{<\kappa}=\kappa$ and $2^{\kappa}= \kappa^+$, and $\eta$ is an ordinal with $\kappa^+\leq \eta <\kappa^{++}$ and $cf(\eta) = \kappa^+$. Then, in some cardinal-preserving generic extension there is a superatomic Boolean algebra $B$ such that - $ht(B) = \eta + 1$, - the cardinality of the $\alpha$th level of $B$ is $\kappa$ for every $\alpha <\eta$, - and the cardinality of the $\eta$th level of $B$ is $\lambda$ Especially, $\<{\omega}\>_{{\omega}_1}\concatenation \<{\omega}_3\>$ and $\<{\omega}_1\>_{{\omega}_2}\concatenation \<{\omega}_4\>$ can be cardinal sequences of superatomic Boolean algebras. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1004.4798v1
