Superstrong and other large cardinals are never Laver indestructible (1307.3486v2)

Abstract: Superstrong cardinals are never Laver indestructible. Similarly, almost huge cardinals, huge cardinals, superhuge cardinals, rank-into-rank cardinals, extendible cardinals, 1-extendible cardinals, 0-extendible cardinals, weakly superstrong cardinals, uplifting cardinals, pseudo-uplifting cardinals, superstrongly unfoldable cardinals, \Sigma_n-reflecting cardinals, \Sigma_n-correct cardinals and \Sigma_n-extendible cardinals (all for n>2) are never Laver indestructible. In fact, all these large cardinal properties are superdestructible: if \kappa\ exhibits any of them, with corresponding target \theta, then in any forcing extension arising from nontrivial strategically <\kappa-closed forcing Q in V_\theta, the cardinal \kappa\ will exhibit none of the large cardinal properties with target \theta\ or larger.
