In this paper we introduce a tree-like forcing notion extending some properties of the random forcing in the context of the generalised Cantor space and study its associated ideal of null sets and notion of measurability. This issue was also addressed by Shelah ([11, Problem 0.5]) and concerns the definition of a forcing which is $κ^kappa$-bounding, $< κ$-closed and $κ^+$-cc, for $κ$ inaccessible.
In this note we answer the following question of Grinblat: Is it consistent that for some set X, cov(NULL restriction X)=lambda is a weakly inaccessible cardinal (so X not null of course) while cov(meagre) is small, say it is aleph_1.
It is well known to generalize the meagre ideal replacing aleph_0 by a (regular) cardinal lambda > aleph_0 and requiring the ideal to be lambda^+-complete. But can we generalize the null ideal? In terms of forcing, this means finding a forcing notion similar to the random real forcing, replacing aleph_0 by lambda, so requiring it to be (<lambda)-complete. Of course, we would welcome additional properties generalizing the ones of the random real forcing. Returning to the ideal (instead forcing) we may look at the Boolean Algebra of lambda-Borel sets modulo the ideal. Surprisingly we get an posi…
This is a continuation of "Some results on nonstationry ideal". The upper bound on precipitousness of NS_lambda^+ for a regular lambda given in this paper is proved to be exact.It is shown that saturatedness of NS_kappa^aleph_0 over inaccessible kappa requires at least o(kappa)=kappa^++.The upper bounds on the strength of NS_kappa precipitous for inaccessible kappa are reduced quite close to the lower bounds.
We prove that a large class of presaturated ideals at inaccessible cardinals can be de-saturated while preserving their presaturation, answering both a question of Foreman and of Cox and Eskew. We do so by iterating a generalized version of Baumgartner and Taylor's forcing to add a club with finite conditions along an inaccessible cardinal, and invoking Foreman's Duality Theorem.
Our main result is that possibly some non-null set of reals cannot be divided to uncountably many non-null sets. We deal also with a non-null set of reals, the graph of any function from it is null and deal with our iterations somewhat more generally.
We are proving the following: (1) If $\kap$ is a weakly inaccessible then $NS_\kap$ is not $\kap^+$-saturated. (2) If $\kap$ is a weakly inaccessible and $\tet <\kap$ is regular then $NS^\tet_\kap$ is not $\kap^+$-saturated. (3) If $\kap$ is singular then $NS^{cf\kap}_{\kap^+}$ is not $\kap^{++}$-saturated. Combining this with previous results of Shelah, one obtains the following: (A) If $\kap >\aleph_1$ then $NS_\kap$ is not $\kap^+$-saturated. (B) If $\tet^+<\kap$ then $NS^\tet_\kap$ is not $\kap^+$-saturated.

We prove the following theorem: For a partially ordered set Q such that every countable subset has a strict upper bound, there is a forcing notion satisfying ccc such that, in the forcing model, there is a basis of the null ideal of the real line which is order-isomorphic to Q with respect to set-inclusion. This is a variation of Hechler's classical result in the theory of forcing, and the statement of the theorem for the meager ideal has been already proved by Bartoszynski and the author.
With each of the usual tree forcings I (e.g., I = Sacks forcing S, Laver forcing L, Miller forcing M, Mathias forcing R, etc.) we associate a sigma--ideal i^0 on the reals as follows: A \in i^0 iff for all T \in I there is S \leq T (i.e. S is stronger than T or, equivalently, S is a subtree of T) such that A \cap [S] = \emptyset, where [S] denotes the set of branches through S. So, s^0 is the ideal of Marczewski null sets, r^0 is the ideal of Ramsey null sets (nowhere Ramsey sets) etc. We show (in ZFC) that whenever i^0, j^0 are two such ideals, then i^0 \sem j^0 \neq \emptyset. E.g., for I=S …
We show that the set of codes for Ramsey positive analytic sets is $\mathbfΣ^1_2$-complete. This is a one projective-step higher analogue of the Hurewicz theorem saying that the set of codes for uncountable analytic sets is $\mathbfΣ^1_1$-complete. This shows a close resemblance between the Sacks forcing and the Mathias forcing. In particular, we get that the $σ$-ideal of Ramsey null sets is not ZFC-correct. This solves a problem posed by Ikegami, Pawlikowski and Zapletal.
We introduce the notion of effective Axiom A and use it to show that some popular tree forcings are Suslin+. We introduce transitive nep and present a simplified version of Shelah's "preserving a little implies preserving much": If I is a Suslin ccc ideal (e.g. Lebesgue-null or meager) and P is a transitive nep forcing (e.g. P is Suslin+) and P doesn't make any I-positive Borel set small, then P doesn't make any I-positive set small.
We propose a new, game-theoretic, approach to the idealized forcing, in terms of fusion games. This generalizes the classical approach to the Sacks and the Miller forcing. For definable ($\mathbfΠ^1_1$ on $\mathbfΣ^1_1) $σ$-ideals we show that if a $σ$-ideal is generated by closed sets, then it is generated by closed sets in all forcing extensions. We also prove an infinite-dimensional version of the Solecki dichotomy for analytic sets. Among examples, we investigate the $σ$-ideal $\E$ generated by closed null sets and $σ$-ideals connected with not piecewise continuous functions.
The $σ$-ideal $(v^0)$ is associated with the Silver forcing, see \cite{bre}. Also, it constitutes the family of all completely doughnut null sets, see \cite{hal}. We introduce segments and $*$-segments topologies, to state some resemblances of $(v^0)$ to the family of Ramsey null sets. To describe $add(v^0)$ we adopt a proof of Base Matrix Lemma. Consistent results are stated, too. Halbeisen's conjecture $cov(v^0) = add(v^0)$ is confirmed under the hypothesis $t= \min \{\cf (\frak c), r\} $. The hypothesis $h=ω_1$ implies that $(v^0)$ has the ideal type $(\frak c, ω_1,\frak c)$.
I prove forcing preservation theorems for products of definable partial orders preserving the cofinality of the meager or null ideal. Rectangular Ramsey theorems for related ideals follow from the proofs.
