Iteration theorems for subversions of forcing classes
Abstract
We prove various iteration theorems for forcing classes related to subproper and subcomplete forcing, introduced by Jensen. In the first part, we use revised countable support iterations, and show that 1) the class of subproper, -bounding forcing notions, 2) the class of subproper, -preserving forcing notions (where is a fixed Souslin tree) and 3) the class of subproper, -preserving forcing notions (where is an -tree) are iterable with revised countable support. In the second part, we adopt Miyamoto's theory of nice iterations, rather than revised countable support. We show that this approach allows us to drop a technical condition in the definitions of subcompleteness and subproperness, still resulting in forcing classes that are iterable in this way, preserve , and, in the case of subcompleteness, don't add reals. Further, we show that the analogs of the iteration theorems proved in the first part for RCS iterations hold for nice iterations as well.
