${\rm AD}_{\mathbb R}$ is a strengthening of the determinacy axiom that states that all games on the real numbers are determined. It is a Theorem of Solovay that under ${\rm ZF}+{\rm AD}_{\mathbb R}$ there is a fine, countably complete and normal filter on $P_{\omega_1}(\mathbb R)$, so $\omega_1$ is $\mathbb R$-supercompact. The exact consistency strength of the theory ${\rm ZF}+ {\rm AD}+$“$\omega_1$ is $\mathbb{R}$-supercompact” is, however, weaker than the one of ${\rm ZF}+{\rm AD}_{\mathbb R}$.
One central interest of Inner Model Theory is to construct/find canonical models for theories extending ${\rm ZF}$. A natural question is, then, whether there is a canonical model for the theory ${\rm ZF}+ {\rm AD}+$“$\omega_1$ is $\mathbb{R}$-supercompact”.
In this talk, we will discuss the consistency strength and minimal models of this theory. We will discuss the proof of the uniqueness of minimal models of this theory, under various appropriate hypotheses. And time permitting we will discuss the proof of the result that under ${\rm ZFC}$ there is at most one minimal model of this theory. This is joint work with Nam Trang.

We will discuss the propagation of certain tree representations in the presence of very large cardinals. These tree representations give generic absoluteness results and have structural consequences in the area of generalized descriptive set theory. In fact these representations give us a method for producing models of strong determinacy axioms.
