Abstract: We use orthogonality calculus to prove a downward transfer from categoricity in a successor in abstract elementary classes (AECs) that have a good frame (a forking-like notion for types of singletons) on an interval of cardinals: mathbfTheorem Let K be an AEC and let extLS(K)lelambda<heta be cardinals. If K has a type-full good [lambda,heta]-frame and K is categorical in both lambda and heta+, then K is categorical in all lambdain[lambda,heta]. We deduce improvements on the threshold of several categoricity transfers that do not mention frames. For example, the threshold in Shelah's transfer can be improved from to assuming that the AEC is extLS(K)-tame. The successor hypothesis can also be removed from Shelah's result by assuming in addition either that the AEC has primes over sets of the form Mcupa or (using an unpublished claim of Shelah) that the weak generalized continuum hypothesis holds.
