contents We analyze the intermediate models of the strongly compact Prikry forcing. We exhibit a simple combinatorial property which, for a given supercompact cardinal $κ$, characterize the projections of all projections of the strongly compact Prikry forcing using $κ$-complete fine measures. Considering level-by-level results, if $κ$ is $2^λ$-strongly compact, we characterize the forcings of size $\leqλ$ which are projections of that $λ$-strongly compact Prikry forcing. Our characterization generalizes several known results, including those of Benhamou-Hayut-Gitik and folklore results regarding the class of $κ$-distributive forcing notions which are embedded into the supercompact Prikry forcing. Fixing a $κ$-complete fine measure $\mathcal{U}$ on $P_κ(λ)$, we also provide Rudin-Keisler like critiria for the existence projections from the strongly compact Prikry forcing with $\mathcal{U}$. Finally, we prove that among all projections of the $λ$-strongly compact Prikry forcing, the class of forcings of cardinality $λ$ are exactly those for which there is a projection map which depends only on the stem of the Prikry condition. We also give partial results regarding projections of arbitrary cardinality.

We analyze the intermediate models of the strongly compact Prikry forcing. We exhibit a simple combinatorial property which, for a given supercompact cardinal $κ$, characterize the projections of all projections of the strongly compact Prikry forcing using $κ$-complete fine measures. Considering level-by-level results, if $κ$ is $2^λ$-strongly compact, we characterize the forcings of size $\leqλ$ which are projections of that $λ$-strongly compact Prikry forcing. Our characterization generalizes several known results, including those of Benhamou-Hayut-Gitik and folklore results regarding the class of $κ$-distributive forcing notions which are embedded into the supercompact Prikry forcing. Fixing a $κ$-complete fine measure $\mathcal{U}$ on $P_κ(λ)$, we also provide Rudin-Keisler like critiria for the existence projections from the strongly compact Prikry forcing with $\mathcal{U}$.
