Equiconsistency of -compactness and -subcompactness
A cardinal is -compact when it has the compactness property described in the surrounding discussion, and a cardinal is --subcompact when it has the corresponding elementary-embedding property. The claim concerns the existence of cardinals with these properties.
Equiconsistency conjecture. The existence of which is -compact is equiconsistent with the existence of a cardinal which is --subcompact.
The conjecture is motivated by reflection results connecting strong compactness, compactness, and -subcompactness, together with inner-model consequences from failures of square. Its resolution is not supplied in the source.
