Kenneth Kunen

Herbert Kenneth Kunen (born August 2, 1943) is an emeritus professor of mathematics at the University of Wisconsin–Madison〔http://www.math.wisc.edu/~apache/emeriti.html〕 who works in set theory and its applications to various areas of mathematics, such as set-theoretic topology and measure theory. He also works on non-associative algebraic systems, such as loops, and uses computer software, such as the Otter theorem prover, to derive theorems in these areas.
Kunen showed that if there exists a nontrivial elementary embedding ''j'':''L''→''L'' of the constructible universe, then 0# exists.
He proved the consistency of a normal, \aleph_2-saturated ideal on \aleph_1 from the consistency of the existence of a huge cardinal. He introduced the method of iterated ultrapowers, with which he proved that if \kappa is a measurable cardinal with 2^\kappa>\kappa^+ or \kappa is a strongly compact cardinal then there is an inner model of set theory with \kappa many measurable cardinals. He proved Kunen's inconsistency theorem showing the impossibility of a nontrivial elementary embedding V\to V, which had been suggested as a large cardinal assumption (a Reinhardt cardinal).
Away from the area of large cardinals, Kunen is known for intricate forcing and combinatorial constructions. He proved that it is consistent that the Martin Axiom first fails at a singular cardinal and constructed
under CH a compact L-space supporting a nonseparable measure. He also showed that P(\omega)/Fin has no increasing chain of length \omega_2 in the standard Cohen model
where the continuum is \aleph_2. The concept of a Jech–Kunen tree is named after him and Thomas Jech.
Kunen received his Ph.D. in 1968 from Stanford University, where he was supervised by Dana Scott.
