Based on the work of Shelah, Kellner, and T\u{a}nasie (Fund. Math., 166(1-2):109-136, 2000 and Comment. Math. Univ. Carolin., 60(1):61-95, 2019), and the recent developments in the third author's master's thesis, we develop a general theory…
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…
A central theme in set theory is to find universes with extreme, well-understood behaviour. The case we are interested in is assuming GCH and has a strong forcing axiom of higher order than usual. Instead of "for every suitable forcing…
Cicho\'n's diagram describes the connections between combinatorial notions related to measure, category, and compactness of sets of irrational numbers. In the second part of the 2010's, Goldstern, Kellner and Shelah constructed a forcing…
This dissertation surveys several topics in the general areas of iterated forcing, infinite combinatorics and set theory of the reals. There are two parts. In the first half I consider alternative versions of the Cicho\'n diagram. First I…
Ramsey theory and forcing have a symbiotic relationship. At the RIMS Symposium on Infinite Combinatorics and Forcing Theory in 2016, the author gave three tutorials on Ramsey theory in forcing. The first two tutorials concentrated on…
We lay the ground for an Isabelle/ZF formalization of Cohen's technique of forcing. We formalize the definition of forcing notions as preorders with top, dense subsets, and generic filters. We formalize the definition of forcing notions as…
Forcing axioms are generalizations of Baire category principles that allow one to intersect more dense open sets and to do so in a wider variety of circumstances. In this paper we introduce two new forcing axioms related to posets which…
We work on the family of topologies for the Minkowski manifold M. We partially order this family by inclusion to form the lattice \Sigma(M), and focus on the sublattice Z of topologies that induce the Euclidean metric space on every time…
We present a version with non-definable forcing notions of Shelah's theory of iterated forcing along a template. Our main result, as an application, is that, if $\kappa$ is a measurable cardinal and $\theta<\kappa<\mu<\lambda$ are…
We introduce the notion of a tight cofinitary group, which captures forcing indestructibility of maximal cofinitary groups for a long list of partial orders, including Cohen, Sacks, Miller, Miller partition forcing and Shelah's poset for…
We use known finite support iteration techniques to present various examples of models where several cardinal characteristics of Cicho\'n's diagram are pairwise different. We show some simple examples forcing the left-hand side of…
A forcing extension may create new isomorphisms between two models of a first order theory. Certain model theoretic constraints on the theory and other constraints on the forcing can prevent this pathology. A countable first order theory is…
The technique of symmetric extensions is derived from forcing and it is one of the most important tools for studying models without the Axiom of Choice. Despite being incredibly successful since the 1960s, our understanding of the technique…
We show that after forcing with a countable support iteration or a finite product of Sacks or splitting forcing over $L$, every analytic hypergraph on a Polish space admits a $\mathbf{\Delta}^1_2$ maximal independent set. As a main…
We prove the following theorem: For a partially ordered set Q such that every countable subset has a strict upper bound, there is a forcing notion satisfying ccc such that, in the forcing model, there is a basis of the meager ideal of the…
We introduce the forcing model of IZFA (Intuitionistic Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory with Atoms) for every Grothendieck topology and prove that the topos of sheaves on every site is equivalent to the category of 'sets in this forcing model'.
We show that the conformal data of a range of large-$N$ CFTs, the melonic CFTs, are specified by constrained extremization of the universal part of the sphere free energy $F=-\log Z_{S^d}$, called $\tilde{F}$. This family includes the…
We introduce a new class of ultrafilters which generalizes the well-known class of simple $P$-point ultrafilters. We prove that for any well-founded $\sigma$-directed partial order $\mathbb{D}$ there is a mild forcing extension where there…
We formalize the theory of forcing in the set theory framework of Isabelle/ZF. Under the assumption of the existence of a countable transitive model of ZFC, we construct a proper generic extension and show that the latter also satisfies…
