Streszczenie
By an $ω_1$- tree we mean a tree of power $ω_1$ and height $ω_1$. Under CH and $2^{ω_{1}} > ω_2$ we call an $ω_1$-tree a Jech-Kunen tree if it has κ-many branches for some κ strictly between $ω_1$ and $2^{ω_{1}}$. In this paper we prove that, assuming the existence of one inaccessible cardinal, (1) it is consistent with CH plus $2^{ω_{1}} > ω_2$ that there exist Kurepa trees and there are no Jech-Kunen trees, which answers a question of [Ji2], (2) it is consistent with CH plus $2^{ω_{1}} = ω_4$ that there only exist Kurepa trees with $ω_{3}$-many branches, which answers another question of [Ji2].
