Small u(kappa) at singular kappa with compactness at kappa++

Abstract: We show that the tree property, stationary reflection and the failure of approachability at

k a p p a^{+ +}

are consistent with

m a t h f r a k u (k a p p a) = k a p p a^{+} < 2^{k} a p p a

, where

k a p p a

is a singular strong limit cardinal with the countable or uncountable cofinality. As a by-product, we show that if

l a m b d a

is a regular cardinal, then stationary reflection at

l a m b d a^{+}

is indestructible under all

l a m b d a

-cc forcings (out of general interest, we also state a related result for the preservation of club stationary reflection).
