Rank-into-rank hypotheses and the failure of GCH

In this paper we are concerned about the ways GCH can fail in relation to rank-into-rank hypotheses, i.e., very large cardinals usually denoted by I3, I2, I1 and I0. The main results are a satisfactory analysis of the way the power function can vary on regular cardinals in the presence of rank-into-rank hypotheses and the consistency under I0 of the existence of ${j : V_{lambda+1} {prec} V_{lambda+1}}$ with the failure of GCH at ${lambda}$ .
