Comparing forcing approaches to dense ideals

Logic 2025-03-04 v1

Abstract

We analyze some posets involved in forcing constructions for dense ideals, showing that the Anonymous Collapse and the Dual Shioya Collapse are equivalent for collapsing a large cardinal to ω2\omega_2. We also give a somewhat simplified construction of a normal ideal II on ω2\omega_2 such that P(ω2)/ICol(ω1,ω2)\mathcal{P}(\omega_2)/I \sim \mathrm{Col}(\omega_1,\omega_2).
