Definition 2.1. A cardinal κ is said to be an l3 cardinal if it is the critical point of an elementary embedding j:Vδ ≺ Vδ. I3 is the asser-tion that an l3 cardinal exists,and l3(κ,δ) is the assertion that the first statement holds for a particular pair of ordinals κ,δ such that κ<δ.
Definition 2.2. A cardinal κ is said to be an I2 cardinal if it is the critical point of an elementary embedding j:V ≺ M such that Vδ ⊂ M where δ is the least ordinal greater than κ such that j(δ)=δ. l2 is the assertion that an I2 cardinal exists,and I2(κ,δ) is the assertion that the first statement holds for a particular pair of ordinals κ,δ suchthat
κ<δ.
In this section we wish to show that the α-tremendous cardinals and hyper-tremendous cardinals have consistency strength strictly between I3 and I2.
Theorem 2.3. Suppose that κ is ω-tremendous αs ωitnessed by 〈κᵢ: i<ω〉.Then there is α normαl ultrαflter U on κ₀ such thαt the set of αll κ'<κ₀ such thαt I3(κ',δ) for some δ<κ₀,is α member of U.
Proof.Suppose that κ is ω-tremendous and that 〈κᵢ:i ∈ ω〉to-gether with a certain family F of elementary embeddings witness the ω-tremendousness of κ .It can be assumed without loss of generality that all the embeddings in F with critical point κ₀ give rise to the same
