The purpose of the paper is to produce models V_1 \subset V_2 such that adding kappa-many Cohen reals to V_2 adds lambda Cohen reals to V_1. Some of the results: 1. Suppose that V satisfies GCH, kappa = \cup kappa_n= \cup o(kappa_n). Then…

In this paper we produce models $V_1\subseteq V_2$ of set theory such that adding $\kappa$-many Cohen reals to $V_2$ adds $\lambda$-many Cohen reals to $V_1$, for some $\lambda>\kappa$. We deal mainly with the case when $V_1$ and $V_2$ have…

We show that if we add any number of Cohen reals to the ground model then, in the generic extension, a locally compact scattered space has at most (2^{aleph_0})^V many levels of size omega. We also give a complete ZFC characterization of…

Let $\kappa$ be an infinite cardinal. Then, forcing with $\mathbb{R}(\kappa)$$\times$$\mathbb{R}(\kappa)$ adds a generic filter for $\mathbb{C}(\kappa);$ where $\mathbb{R}(\kappa)$ and $\mathbb{C}(\kappa)$ are the forcing notions for adding…

We study pairs $(V, V_{1})$, $V \subseteq V_1$, of models of $ZFC$ such that adding $\kappa-$many Cohen reals over $V_{1}$ adds $\lambda-$many Cohen reals over $V$ for some $\lambda> \kappa$.

Abstractly, the generic extensions after $\aleph_\omega$-many Cohen reals and $\aleph_{\omega+1}$-many Cohen reals must be different for reasons of uniform density the relevant Boolean algebras. Nevertheless this is not satisfying and it…

We show that if $\kappa < \aleph_\omega$ Cohen reals are added to a model of $\mathsf{CH}$, then there are nontrivial automorphisms of $\mathcal P(\omega)/\mathrm{Fin}$ in the extension. Under some further hypotheses on the ground model,…

We prove that any suitable generalization of Laver forcing to the space $ \kappa^\kappa$, for uncountable regular $\kappa$, necessarily adds a Cohen $\kappa$-real. We also study a dichotomy and an ideal naturally related to generalized…

Starting from the $\rm{GCH},$ we build a cardinal and $\rm{GCH}$ preserving generic extension of the universe, in which there exists a set $A \subseteq \omega_2$ of size $\aleph_2$ so that every countably infinite subset of $A$ or $\omega_2…

We generalize to the relations $(\lambda, \mu) \stackrel{\kappa}{\Rightarrow} (\lambda', \mu')$ and $\alm (\lambda, \mu) \stackrel{\kappa}{\Rightarrow} \alm (\lambda', \mu')$ some results obtained in Parts II and IV. We also present a…

We study combinatorial principles we call Homogeneity Principle HP(\kappa) and Injectivity Principle IP(\kappa,\lambda) for regular \kappa>\aleph_1 and \lambda\leq\kappa which are formulated in terms of coloring the ordinals <\kappa by…

Given an inner model $W \subset V$ and a regular cardinal $\kappa$, we consider two alternatives for adding a subset to $\kappa$ by forcing: the Cohen poset $Add(\kappa,1)$, and the Cohen poset of the inner model $Add(\kappa,1)^W$. The…

We generalize the combinatorial principles $C_n(\kappa), C^s_n(\kappa)$ and $Princ(\kappa)$ introduced by various authors, and prove some of their properties and connections between them. We also answer a question asked by Juhasz-Kunen…

Assume ZFC. Let $\kappa$ be a cardinal. A ${<\kappa}$-ground is a transitive proper class $W$ modelling ZFC and such that $V$ is a generic extension of $W$ via a forcing $\mathbb{P}\in W$ of cardinality ${<\kappa}$. The $\kappa$-mantle is…

We begin the study of the consequences of the existence of certain infinite matrices. Our present application is to compactness of products of topological spaces.

We find many conditions equivalent to the model-theoretical property $\lambda \stackrel{\kappa}{\Rightarrow} \mu$ introduced in [L1]. Our conditions involve uniformity of ultrafilters, compactness properties of products of topological…

Using a theorem from pcf theory, we show that for any singular cardinal nu, the product of the Cohen forcing notions on kappa, kappa < nu adds a generic for the Cohen forcing notion on nu^+. This solves Problem 5.1 in Miller's list…

We discuss the effect of adding a single real (for various forcing notions adding reals) on cardinal invariants associated with the continuum (like the unbounding or the dominating number or the cardinals related to measure and category on…

Let GCH hold and let $j:V\longrightarrow M$ be a definable elementary embedding such that $crit(j)=\kappa$, $^{\kappa}M\subseteq M$ and $\kappa^{++}=\kappa_{M}^{++}$. H. Woodin proved that there is a cofinality preserving generic extension…

The $k$ multiplicative and $k$ additive compounds of a matrix play an important role in geometry, multi-linear algebra, the asymptotic analysis of nonlinear dynamical systems, and in bounding the Hausdorff dimension of fractal sets. These…
