We answer a question of Moore by building a forcing extension satisfying measuring together with CH. The construction works over any model of ZFC and can be described as a forcing iteration with countable structures as side conditions and…

We introduce Strong Measuring, a maximal strengthening of J. T. Moore's Measuring principle, which asserts that every collection of fewer than continuum many closed bounded subsets of $\omega_1$ is measured by some club subset of…

We introduce a new method for building models of CH, together with $\Pi_2$ statements over $H(\omega_2)$, by forcing. Unlike other forcing constructions in the literature, our construction adds new reals, although only $\aleph_1$-many of…

One of the most frustrating problems faced by set theorists working with iterated proper forcing is the lack of techniques for producing models in which the continuum has size greater than the second uncountable cardinal. In this paper we…

Chang's Conjecture (CC) asserts that for every $F:[\omega_2]^{<\omega} \to \omega_2$, there exists an $X$ that is closed under $F$ such that $|X|=\omega_1$ and $|X \cap \omega_1| =\omega$. By classic results of Silver and Donder, CC is…

We show that the Proper Forcing Axiom for forcing notions of size $\aleph_1$ is consistent with the continuum being arbitrarily large. In fact, assuming $GCH$ holds and $\kappa\geq\omega_2$ is a regular cardinal, we prove that there is a…

We prove that any countable support iteration formed with posets with $\omega_2$-p.i.c.\ has $\omega_2$-c.c., assuming CH in the ground model and assuming also that $\omega_1$ is not collapsed. This improves earlier results of Shelah by…

Given a Woodin cardinal $\delta$, I show that if $F$ is any Easton function with $F"\delta\subseteq\delta$ and $\GCH$ holds, then there is a cofinality-preserving forcing extension in which $2^\gamma= F(\gamma)$ for each regular cardinal…

We develop a general framework for forcing with coherent adequate sets on $H(\lambda)$ as side conditions, where $\lambda \ge \omega_2$ is a cardinal of uncountable cofinality. We describe a class of forcing posets which we call coherent…

We give two results on guessing unbounded subsets of lambda^+. The first is a positive result and applies to the situation of lambda regular and at least equal to aleph_3, while the second is a negative consistency result which applies to…

This is an overview about a method of constructing ccc forcings: Suppose first that a continuous, commutative system of complete embeddings between countable forcings indexed along $\omega_1$ is given. Then its direct limit satisfies ccc by…

We use forcing over admissible sets to show that, for every ordinal $\alpha$ in a club $C\subset\omega_1$, there are copies of $\alpha$ such that the isomorphism between them is not computable in the join of the complete $\Pi^1_1$ set…

We give an exposition of an iteration theorem for iterating $(<\lambda)$-closed stationary $\lambda^+$-cc forcing with supports of size $<\lambda$ and preserving these two properties. We discuss the relation of this theorem with other…

With a new proof approach we prove in a more general setting the classical convergence theorem that almost everywhere convergence of measurable functions on a finite measure space implies convergence in measure. Specifically, we generalize…

We continue the development of the theory of capturing schemes over $\omega_1$ by analyzing the relation between the capturing construction schemes (whose existence is implied by Jensen's $\Diamond$-principle) and both the Continuum…

A metric space $\mathbf{X}$ is called densely complete if there exists a dense set $D$ in $\mathbf{X}$ such that every Cauchy sequence of points of $D $ converges in $\mathbf{X}$. One of the main aims of this work is to prove that the…

We show that for a Suslin ccc forcing notion $\mathbb Q$ adding a Hechler real, ``$\text{ZF}+\text{DC}_{\omega_1}+$all sets of reals are $I_{\mathbb Q,\aleph_0}$-measurable'' implies the existence of an inner model with a measurable…

We investigate iterating the construction of $C^{*}$, the $L$-like inner model constructed using first order logic augmented with the "cofinality $\omega$" quantifier. We first show that $\left(C^{*}\right)^{C^{*}}=C^{*}\ne L$ is…

We study some variants of the Erd\H{o}s similarity problem. We pose the question if every measurable subset of the real line with positive measure contains a similar copy of an infinite geometric progression. We construct a compact subset…

Absolute model companionship (AMC) is a strict strengthening of model companionship defined as follows: For a theory $T$, $T_{\exists\vee\forall}$ denotes the logical consequences of $T$ which are boolean combinations of universal…
