متن کاملViolating the Singular Cardinals Hypothesis Without
We extend a transitive model V of ZFC +GCH cardinal preservingly to a model N of ZF + “GCH holds below אω” + “there is a surjection from the power set of אω onto λ” where λ is an arbitrarily high fixed cardinal in V . The construction can roughly be described as follows: add אn+1 many Cohen subsets of אn+1 for every n < ω , and adjoin λ many subsets of אω which are unions of ω-sequences of thos...
متن کامل5 D ec 1 99 5 The A , B , C of pcf : a companion to pcf theory , part
This paper is intended to assist the reader learn, or even better, teach a course in pcf theory. Pcf theory can be described as the journey from the function i — the second letter of the Hebrew alphabet — to the function א, the first letter. For English speaking readers the fewer the Hebrew letters the better, of course; but during 1994-95 it seemed that for a group of 6 post doctoral students ...
متن کاملBorel Extensions of Baire Measures in Zfc
We prove: (1) Every Baire measure on the Kojman-Shelah Dowker space [10] admits a Borel extension. (2) If the continuum is not a real-valued measurable cardinal then every Baire measure on the M. E. Rudin Dowker space [16] admits a Borel extension. Consequently, Balogh’s space [3] remains as the only candidate to be a ZFC counterexample to the measure extension problem of the three presently kn...
متن کاملEmbedding Cohen algebras using pcf theory
Using a theorem from pcf theory, we show that for any singular cardinal ν, the product of the Cohen forcing notions on κ, κ < ν adds a generic for the Cohen forcing notion on ν. The following question (problem 5.1 in Miller’s list [Mi91]) is attributed to Rene David and Sy Friedman: Does the product of the forcing notions n2 add a generic for the forcing ω+12? We show here that the answer is ye...
