Abstract

We continue the development of the theory of capturing schemes over ω1\omega_1 by analyzing the relation between the capturing construction schemes (whose existence is implied by Jensen's \Diamond-principle) and both the Continuum Hypothesis and Ostaszewski's \clubsuit-principle. Formally, we show that the property of being capturing can be viewed as the conjunction of two properties, one of which is implied by \clubsuit and the other one by CH. We apply these principles to construct multiple gaps, entangled sets and metric spaces without uncountable monotone subspaces.
