Review text

Generic extensions are constructed in which the weak compactness of an uncountable regular cardinal K is characterized, as in L, by Souslin's hypothesis and by the stationary reflection property. Supercompactness can be preserved in the extension, and then the weak compactness of K is characterized by the stationary reflection property and by the conjunction of Souslin's hypothesis and not being the successor of a singular cardinal.
