AbstractWe demonstrate that the technology of Radin forcing can be used to transfer compactness properties at a weakly inaccessible but not strong limit cardinal to a strongly inaccessible cardinal. As an application, relative to the existence of large cardinals, we construct a model of set theory in which there is a strongly inaccessible cardinal that is ‐‐stationary for all but not weakly compact. This is in sharp contrast to the situation in the constructible universe , where being ‐‐stationary is equivalent to being ‐indescribable. We also show that it is consistent that there is a cardinal such that is ‐stationary for all and , answering a question of Sakai.
