Abstract

Suppose D is an ultrafilter on κ and λ^κ = λ. We prove that if B_i is a Boolean algebra for every i < κ and λ bounds the depth of every B_i , then the depth of the ultraproduct of the B_i 's mod D is bounded by λ⁺. We also show that for singular cardinals with small cofinality, there is no gap at all. This gives a partial answer to a previous problem raised by Monk.
