Wilson's conjecture on the first Solovay ordinal of a derived model
Let satisfy PFA, let be a limit of Woodin cardinals, and let denote the derived model at . Write for the first level of its Solovay hierarchy. Wilson's conjecture. Assume PFA and that is a limit of Woodin cardinals. Then
and
Wilson's original conjecture removes the countable-cofinality assumption from his earlier theorem bounding the first Solovay ordinal. The paper presents this as an open generalization; the supplied source gives no resolution.
