Bounding by canonical functions, with CH

Logic 2010-09-02 v2

Abstract

We show that that a certain class of semi-proper iterations does not add omega-sequences. As a result, starting from suitable large cardinals one can obtain a model in which the Continuum Hypothesis holds and every function from omega_1 to omega_1 is bounded by a canonical function on a club, and so omega_1 is the omega_2-nd canonical function.
