Combinatorial Properties Related to the Higher Baumgartner's Axiom

Logic 2026-03-24 v1

Abstract

We isolate two combinatorial properties, each expressible by a Π2\Pi_2-sentence over the structure (H(ω3),,ω1,ω2,NSω2)(H(\omega_3),\in,\omega_1,\omega_2,\text{NS}_{\omega_2}), such that each property is consistent with CH, and their conjunction together with 2ωω22^\omega \le \omega_2 and 2ω1=2ω2=ω32^{\omega_1} = 2^{\omega_2} = \omega_3 implies the existence of a c.c.c. forcing which forces the higher Baumgartner's axiom.
