The main result of this paper is a partial answer to [math.LO/9909115, Problem 5.5]: a finite iteration of Universal Meager forcing notions adds generic filters for many forcing notions determined by universality parameters. We also give some results concerning cardinal characteristics of the sigma-ideals determined by those universality parameters.

In the present paper we are interested in simple forcing notions and Forcing Axioms. A starting point for our investigations was the article [JR1] in which several problems were posed. We answer some of those problems here.
With every $σ$-ideal $I$ on a Polish space we associate the $σ$-ideal $I^*$ generated by the closed sets in $I$. We study the forcing notions of Borel sets modulo the respective $σ$-ideals $I$ and $I^*$ and find connections between their forcing properties. To this end, we associate to a $σ$-ideal on a Polish space an ideal on a countable set and show how forcing properties of the forcing depend on combinatorial properties of the ideal. For $σ$-ideals generated by closed sets we also study the degrees of reals added in the forcing extensions. Among corollaries of our results, we get necessary …
We look for a parallel to the notion of ``proper forcing'' among lambda-complete forcing notions not collapsing lambda^+ . We suggest such a definition and prove that it is preserved by suitable iterations.
An $\aleph_1$-Souslin tree is a complicated combinatorial object whose existence cannot be decided on the grounds of ZFC alone. But 15 years after Tennenbaum and independently Jech devised notions of forcing for introducing such a tree, Shelah proved that already the simplest forcing notion --- Cohen forcing --- adds an $\aleph_1$-Souslin tree. In this paper, we identify a rather large class of notions of forcing that, assuming a GCH-type assumption, add a $λ^+$-Souslin tree. This class includes Prikry, Magidor and Radin forcing.
The present paper has three themes. First, we continue the investigations started in Judah, Roslanowski and Shelah \math.LO/9310224 and Roslanowski and Shelah math.LO/9807172, math.LO/9703222, and we investigate the method of norms on possibilities in the context of ccc forcing notions, getting a number of constructions of nicely definable ccc forcings. The second theme of the paper is a part of the general program ``how special are random and Cohen forcing notions (or: the respective ideals)''. Shelah math.LO/9303208 shows that the two forcing notions may occupy special positions in the realm…
Let I be a sigma-ideal sigma-generated by a projective collection of closed sets. The forcing with I-positive Borel sets is proper and adds a single real r of an almost minimal degree: if s is a real in V[r] then s is Cohen generic over V or V[s]=V[r].
We study the Mathias--Prikry and the Laver type forcings associated with filters and coideals. We isolate a crucial combinatorial property of Mathias reals, and prove that Mathias--Prikry forcings with summable ideals are all mutually bi-embeddable. We show that Mathias forcing associated with the complement of an analytic ideal always adds a dominating real. We also characterize filters for which the associated Mathias--Prikry forcing does not add eventually different reals, and show that they are countably generated provided they are Borel. We give a characterization of $ω$-hitting and $ω$-s…
We consider here Easton support iterations of Prikry type forcing notions. New ways of constructing normal ultrafilters in extensions are presented. It turns out that, in contrast with other supports, seemingly unrelated measures or extenders can be involved here.
We prove that if Q is a nw-nep forcing then it cannot add a dominating real. We also prove that Amoeba forcing cannot be P(X)/I if I is an aleph_1-complete ideal.
Boban Velickovic asked the following question: Is there a nontrivial forcing notion with the Sacks property which is also ccc? A ``definable'' variant of this question has been answered in [Sh:480] (math.LO/9303208): Every nontrivial Souslin forcing notion which has the Sacks property has an uncountable antichain. Here we show that it is consistent that every nontrivial forcing notion which has the Sacks property has an uncountable antichain. Independently, Velickovic has also proved the consistency of this statement.
We describe a method of building ``nice'' sigma-ideals from Souslin ccc forcing notions. [These notes were written down in 1992, but were not submitted to any journal. In a slightly modified form, they were incorporated to: T. Bartoszynski and H. Judah, Set Theory: on the structure of the real line, A K Peters, Wellesley, MA, 1995; pages 193-203.]
We prove that the Sacks forcing collapses the continuum onto the dominating number d, answering the question of Carlson and Laver. Next we prove that if a proper forcing of the size at most continuum collapses omega_2 then it forces diamond_{omega_1} .
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.
We show that for a Suslin ccc forcing notion $\mathbb Q$ adding a Hechler real, ``$\text{ZF}+\text{DC}_{ω_1}+$all sets of reals are $I_{\mathbb Q,\aleph_0}$-measurable'' implies the existence of an inner model with a measurable cardinal. We also introduce a wide class of Suslin ccc forcing notions which add a Hechler real, so that the above result applies to them.
On semiproperness of Namba forcings and Ideals in Prikry extensions
本文研究了$\mathcal{P}_κλ$上Namba力迫变体的半正则性，证明其蕴含$\mathrm{SSR}([λ]^ω,{<}κ)$，并指出Prikry型力迫扩张中不存在半正则饱和理想。
We present reasons for developing a theory of forcing notions which satisfy the properness demand for countable models which are not necessarily elementary submodels of some (H(chi), in). This leads to forcing notions which are ``reasonably'' definable. We present two specific properties materializing this intuition: nep (non-elementary properness) and snep (Souslin non-elementary properness). For this we consider candidates (countable models to which the definition applies), and the older Souslin proper. A major theme here is ``preservation by iteration'', but we also show a dichotomy: if suc…
We study an extensive connection between factor forcings of Borel subsets of Polish spaces modulo a sigma-ideal, and factor forcings of subsets of countable sets modulo an ideal.
We present a version with non-definable forcing notions of Shelah's theory of iterated forcing along a template. Our main result, as an application, is that, if $κ$ is a measurable cardinal and $θ<κ<μ<λ$ are uncountable regular cardinals, then there is a ccc poset forcing $\mathfrak{s}=θ<\mathfrak{b}=μ<\mathfrak{a}=λ$. Another application is to get models with large continuum where the groupwise-density number $\mathfrak{g}$ assumes an arbitrary regular value.
In this paper we analyse some notions of amoeba for tree forcings. In particular we introduce an amoeba-Silver and prove that it satisfies quasi pure decision but not pure decision. Further we define an amoeba-Sacks and prove that it satisfies the Laver property. We also show some application to regularity properties. We finally present a generalized version of amoeba and discuss some interesting associated questions.
This article continues Rosłanowski and Shelah math.LO/9906024, math.LO/0508272, math.LO/0210205, math.LO/0611131 and math.LO/0605067. We introduce here a new property of <lambda-strategically complete forcing notions which implies that their lambda-support iterations do not collapse lambda^+ (for a strongly inaccessible cardinal lambda).
Generalizing the proof for Sacks forcing, we show that the $h$-perfect tree forcing notions introduced by Goldstern, Judah and Shelah preserve selective independent families even when iterated. As a result we obtain new proofs of the consistency of $\mathfrak{i} = \mathfrak{u} < \mathrm{non} (\mathcal N) = \mathrm{cof} (\mathcal N)$ and $\mathfrak{i} < \mathfrak{u} = \mathrm{non} (\mathcal N) = \mathrm{cof}( \mathcal N)$ as well as some related results.
This is an expository paper about several sophisticated forcing techniques closely related to standard finite support iterations of ccc partial orders. We focus on the four topics of ultrapowers of forcing notions, iterations along templates, Boolean ultrapowers of forcing notions, and restrictions of forcing notions to elementary submodels.
We study which $κ$-distributive forcing notions of size $κ$ can be embedded into tree Prikry forcing notions with $κ$-complete ultrafilters under various large cardinal assumptions. An alternative formulation -- can the filter of dense open subsets of a $κ$-distributive forcing notion of size $κ$ be extended to a $κ$-complete ultrafilter.
We introduce more properties of forcing notions which imply that their lambda-support iterations are lambda-proper, where lambda is an inaccessible cardinal. This paper is a direct continuation of section A.2 of math.LO/0210205. As an application of our iteration result we show that it is consistent that dominating numbers associated with two normal filters on lambda are distinct.
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…

On fresh sets in iterations of Prikry type forcing notions
该研究考察 Prikry 型力迫迭代中 fresh sets 的存在与不存在性，推广已有结果并回答相关审稿问题，同时讨论驻集保持。
For certain weak versions of the Axiom of Choice (most notably, the Boolean Prime Ideal theorem), we obtain equivalent formulations in terms of partial orders, and filter-like objects within them intersecting certain dense sets or antichains. This allows us to prove some consequences of the Boolean Prime Ideal theorem using arguments in the style of those that use Zorn's Lemma, or Martin's Axiom.
Properties of Laver forcing associated with a co-ideal expressed via the Katetov order
本文研究了与co-ideal相关的Laver forcing的性质，分析其在Katetov序下的组合特性，并探讨了添加半Cohen实数而不添加Cohen实数的问题。
We study the influence of strong forcing axioms on the complexity of the non-stationary ideal on $ω_2$ and its restrictions to certain cofinalities. Our main result shows that the strengthening $MM^{++}$ of Martin's Maximum does not decide whether the restriction of the non-stationary ideal on $ω_2$ to sets of ordinals of countable cofinality is $Δ_1$-definable by formulas with parameters in $H(ω_3)$. The techniques developed in the proof of this result also allow us to prove analogous results for the full non-stationary ideal on $ω_2$ and strong forcing axioms that are compatible with CH. Fin…
The intersection number for forcing notions
本文定义力迫概念的相交数，证明其基本性质，并引入 μ-相交链这一新链式性质，为迭代力迫理论提供组合工具。
We deal with an iteration theorem of forcing notion with a kind of countable support of nice enough forcing notion which is proper aleph_2-c.c. forcing notions. We then look at some special cases (Q_D 's preceded by random forcing).
In Mathias forcing, conditions are pairs $(D,S)$ of sets of natural numbers, in which $D$ is finite, $S$ is infinite, and $\max D < \min S$. The Turing degrees and computational characteristics of generics for this forcing in the special (but important) case where the infinite sets $S$ are computable were thoroughly explored by Cholak, Dzhafarov, Hirst, and Slaman~\cite{CDHS-2014}. In this paper, we undertake a similar investigation for the case where the sets $S$ are members of general countable Turing ideals, and give conditions under which generics for Mathias forcing over one ideal compute…
We discuss the effect of adding a single real (for various forcing notions adding reals) on cardinal invariants associated with the continuum (like the unbounding or the dominating number or the cardinals related to measure and category on the real line). For random and Cohen forcing, this question was investigated by Cicho'n and Pawlikowski; for Hechler forcing, by Judah, Shelah and myself. We show here: (1) adding an eventually different or a localization real adjoins a Luzin set of size continuum and a mad family of size omega_1; (2) Laver and Mathias forcing collapse the dominating number …
Starting from large cardinals we construct a pair $V_1\subseteq V_2$ of models of $ZFC$ with the same cardinals and cofinalities such that $GCH$ holds in $V_1$ and fails everywhere in $V_2$.
Comparing forcing approaches to dense ideals
本文分析了稠密理想力迫构造中的偏序集，证明了两种坍缩方法在大基数坍缩到 $ω_2$ 时等价，并给出了 $ω_2$ 上正规理想 $I$ 的简化构造。
A central theme in set theory is to find universes with extreme, well-understood behaviour. The case we are interested in is assuming GCH and has a strong forcing axiom of higher order than usual. Instead of "for every suitable forcing notion for~$λ$" we shall say "for every such family of forcing notions, depending on stationary $S\subseteq λ$, for some such stationary set we have\dots". Such notions of forcing are important for Abelian group theory, but this application is delayed for a sequel.
We show that the cofinalities of both the Miller ideal m^0 (the sigma-ideal naturally related to Miller forcing) and the Laver ideal ell^0 (related to Laver forcing) are larger than the size of the continuum in ZFC.
Answering two questions of D. Fremlin [Real-valued measurable cardinals, in Set Theory of the Reals, H. Judah ed. 1993, 151-305 ] we show the following: (1) If c is real-valued measurable then the Maharam type of (c,P(c),sigma) is 2^c. (2) It is consistent to have k real-valued measurable but for every submodel V_1 with k measurable in it there are no k reals which are random over V_1.
In the paper we probe the possibilities of creating a Kurepa tree in a generic extension of a model of CH plus no Kurepa trees by an omega_1-preserving forcing notion of size at most omega_1. In the first section we show that in the Levy model obtained by collapsing all cardinals between omega_1 and a strongly inaccessible cardinal by forcing with a countable support Levy collapsing order many omega_1-preserving forcing notions of size at most omega_1 including all omega-proper forcing notions and some proper but not omega-proper forcing notions of size at most omega_1 do not create Kurepa tre…
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 meager 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.
We give some sufficient and necessary conditions on a forcing notion Q for preserving the forcing notion ([omega]^{aleph_0},supseteq^*) is proper. They cover many reasonable forcing notions.
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.
We present three natural combinatorial properties for class forcing notions, which imply the forcing theorem to hold. We then show that all known sufficent conditions for the forcing theorem (except for the forcing theorem itself), including the three properties presented in this paper, imply yet another regularity property for class forcing notions, namely that proper classes of the ground model cannot become sets in a generic extension, that is they do not have set-sized names in the ground model. We then show that over certain models of Gödel-Bernays set theory without the power set axiom, …
More notions of forcing add a square
研究在连续统假设下添加$\square_{\aleph_1}$的力迫概念$\mathbb P$，证明其可实现为$\aleph_2$-苏斯林树，更一般地，$\square_\lambda$可由$\lambda^+$-苏斯林树添加，构造统一且可扩展到不可达基数。
The Steprans forcing notion arises as a quotient of Borel sets modulo the ideal of $σ$-continuity of a certain Borel not $σ$-continuous function. We give a characterization of this forcing in the language of trees and using this characterization we establish such properties of the forcing as fusion and continuous reading of names. Although the latter property is usually implied by the fact that the associated ideal is generated by closed sets, we show it is not the case with Steprans forcing. We also establish a connection between Steprans forcing and Miller forcing thus giving a new descripti…
We develop a forcing poset with finite conditions which adds a partial square sequence on a given stationary set, with adequate sets of models as side conditions. We then develop a kind of side condition product forcing for simultaneously adding partial square sequences on multiple stationary sets. We show that certain quotients of such forcings have the $ω_1$-approximation property. We apply these ideas to prove, assuming the consistency of a greatly Mahlo cardinal, that it is consistent that the approachability ideal $I[ω_2]$ does not have a maximal set modulo clubs.
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.
We provide solutions to several problems of Foreman about ideals, several of which are closely related to Mitchell's notion of \emph{strongly proper} forcing. We prove: 1) Presaturation of a normal ideal implies projective antichain catching, enabling us to provide a solution to a problem from Foreman~\cite{MR2768692} about ideal projections which is more comprehensive and simpler than the solution obtained in \cite{MR3343538}. 2) We solve an older question from Foreman~\cite{MR819932} about the relationship between generic hugeness and generic almost hugeness. 3) Finally, we provide solutions…
We study the notion of $\mathcal J$-MAD families where $\mathcal J$ is a Borel ideal on $ω$. We show that if $\mathcal J$ is an arbitrary $F_σ$ ideal, or is any finite or countably iterated Fubini product of $F_σ$ ideals, then there are no analytic infinite $\mathcal J$-MAD families, and assuming Projective Determinacy there are no infinite projective $\mathcal J$-MAD families; and under the full Axiom of Determinacy + $V=\mathbf{L}(\mathbb{R})$ there are no infinite $\mathcal J$-mad families. These results apply in particular when $\mathcal J$ is the ideal of finite sets $\mathrm{Fin}$, which…
We continue investigations of forcing notions with strong ccc properties introducing new methods of building sweet forcing notions. We also show that quotients of topologically sweet forcing notions over Cohen reals are topologically sweet while the quotients over random reals do not have to be such.
A family $\mathscr{I} \subseteq [ω]^ω$ such that for all finite $\{X_i\}_{i\in n}\subseteq \mathcal I$ and $A \in \mathscr{I} \setminus \{X_i\}_{i\in n}$, the set $A \setminus \bigcup_{i < n} X_i$ is infinite, is said to be ideal independent. An ideal independent family which is maximal under inclusion is said to be a maximal ideal independent family and the least cardinality of such family is denoted $\mathfrak{s}_{mm}$. We show that $\mathfrak{u}\leq\mathfrak{s}_{mm}$, which in particular establishes the independence of $\mathfrak{s}_{mm}$ and $\mathfrak{i}$. Given an arbitrary set $C$ of un…
We show that it is consistent with MA + the negation of CH, that the Forcing Axiom fails for all forcing notions in the class of omega^omega-bounding forcing notions with norms of "Norms on possibilities I: forcing with trees and creatures"(by Roslanowski and Shelah - math.LO/9807172).
Let l^0 and m^0 be the ideals associated with Laver and Miller forcing, respectively. We show that add (l^0) < cov(l^0) and add (m^0) < cov(m^0) are consistent. We also show that both Laver and Miller forcing collapse the continuum to a cardinal <= h .
Some models of combinatorial principles have been obtained by collapsing a huge cardinal in the case of the successors of regular cardinals. For example, saturated ideals, Chang's conjecture, polarized partition relations, and transfer principles for chromatic numbers of graphs. In this paper, we study these in the case of the successors of singular cardinals. In particular, we show that Prikry forcing preserves the centeredness of ideals but kills the layeredness. We also study $\binom{μ^{++}}{μ^{+}}\to\binomκ{μ^{+}}_μ$ and $\mathrm{Tr}_{\mathrm{Chr}}(μ^{+++},μ^{+})$ in the extension by Prikr…
We make use of a forcing technique for extending Boolean algebras. The same type of forcing was employed in [BK81], [Kos99], and elsewhere. Using and modifying a lemma of Koszmider, and using CH, we obtain an atomless BA, A such that f(A) = smm(A) < u(A), answering questions raised by [Mon08] and [Mon11].
The Maximality Principle MP is a scheme which states that if a sentence of the language of ZFC is true in some forcing extension V^P, and remains true in any further forcing extension of V^P, then it is true in all forcing extensions of V. A modified maximality principle MP_Gamma arises when considering forcing with a particular class Gamma of forcing notions. A parametrized form of such a principle, MP_Gamma(X), considers formulas taking parameters; to avoid inconsistency such parameters must be restricted to a specific set X which depends on the forcing class Gamma being considered. A strong…
In the first part of the paper, we show that if $ω\le κ< λ$ are cardinals, $κ^{<κ} = κ$, and $λ$ is weakly compact, then in $V[\M(κ,λ)]$ the tree property at $λ= κ^{++V[\M(κ,λ)]}$ is indestructible under all $κ^+$-cc forcing notions which live in $V[\Add(κ,λ)]$, where $\Add(κ,λ)$ is the Cohen forcing for adding $λ$-many subsets of $κ$ and $\M(κ,λ)$ is the standard Mitchell forcing for obtaining the tree property at $λ= (κ^{++})^{V[\M(κ,λ)]}$. This result has direct applications to Prikry-type forcing notions and generalized cardinal invariants. In the second part, we assume that $λ$ is superco…
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 …
