The $\kappa$-Strongly Proper Forcing Axiom

Logic 2024-03-19 v2

Abstract

We study methods to obtain the consistency of forcing axioms, and particularly higher forcing axioms. We first force over a model with a supercompact cardinal θ>κ\theta>\kappa to get the consistency of the forcing axiom for κ\kappa-strongly proper forcing notions which are also κ\kappa-lattice, and then eliminate the need for large cardinals. The proof goes through a natural reflection property for κ\kappa-strongly proper forcings. We also produce a model of this forcing axiom with 2κ2^\kappa arbitrarily large, and prove the inconsistency of certain natural strengthenings of the axiom.
