Abstract: | It is known that if are such that κ is indestructibly supercompact and λ is 2λ supercompact, then level by level equivalence between strong compactness and supercompactness fails. We prove a theorem which
points towards this result being best possible. Specifically, we show that relative to the existence of a supercompact cardinal,
there is a model for level by level equivalence between strong compactness and supercompactness containing a supercompact
cardinal κ in which κ’s strong compactness is indestructible under κ-directed closed forcing.
