We consider $(<\lambda)$-support iterations of a version of $(<\lambda)$-strategically complete $\lambda^+$-c.c. definable forcing notions along partial orders. We show that such iterations can be corrected to yield an analog of a result by…
We introduce a method of constructing a forcing along a simplified $(\kappa,1)$-morass such that the forcing satisfies the $\kappa$-chain condition. Alternatively, this may be seen as a method to thin out a larger forcing to get a chain…
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 show that many countable support iterations of proper forcings preserve Souslin trees. We establish sufficient conditions in terms of games and we draw connections to other preservation properties. We present a proof of preservation…
Measuring says that for e\-very sequence $(C_\delta)_{\delta<\omega_1}$ with each $C_\delta$ being a closed subset of $\delta$ there is a club $C\subseteq\omega_1$ such that for every $\delta\in C$, a tail of $C\cap\delta$ is either…
We consider the cardinal sequences of compact scattered spaces in models where CH is false. We describe a number of models where the continuum is aleph_2 in which no such space can have aleph_2 countable levels.
We construct a normal countably tight $T_1$ space $X$ with $t(X_\delta) >2^\omega$. This is an answer to the question posed by Dow-Juh\'asz-Soukup-Szentmikl\'ossy-Weiss. We also show that if the continuum is not so large, then the tightness…
We prove that a wide class of strongly proper forcing posets have quotients with strong properties. Specifically, we prove that quotients of forcing posets which have simple universal strongly generic conditions on a stationary set of…
The purpose of this article is to prove that the forcing axiom for completely proper forcings is inconsistent with the Continuum Hypothesis. This answers a longstanding problem of Shelah. The corresponding completely proper forcing which…
We deal with (< kappa)-supported iterated forcing notions which are (E_0,E_1)-complete, have in mind problems on Whitehead groups, uniformizations and the general problem. We deal mainly with the successor of a singular case. This continues…
We present a general framework for forcing on $\omega_2$ with finite conditions using countable models as side conditions. This framework is based on a method of comparing countable models as being membership related up to a large initial…
We introduce a forcing that adds a $\square(\aleph_2,\aleph_0)$-sequence with countable conditions under CH. Assuming the consistency of a weakly compact cardinal, we can find a forcing extension by our new poset in which both…
We introduce a forcing technique to construct three-dimensional arrays of generic extensions through FS (finite support) iterations of ccc posets, which we refer to as 3D-coherent systems. We use them to produce models of new constellations…
We develop a unified framework for iterated symmetric extensions with countable support and, more generally, with $<\kappa$-support. Set-length iterations are treated uniformly, and when the iteration template is first-order definable over…
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…
Building on previous work of [BPS] we investigate $\sigma$-closed partial orders of size continuum. We provide both an internal and external characterization of such partial orders by showing that (1) every $\sigma$-closed partial order of…
In the paper, we investigate (scattered) compact spaces with a $P$-base for some poset $P$. More specifically, we prove that, under the assumption $\omega_1<\mathfrak{b}$, any compact space with an $\omega^\omega$-base is first-countable…
The consistency of a second-order version of a theorem of Morley on the number of countable models was proved in arXiv:2107.07636 with the aid of large cardinals. We here dispense with them.
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…
We show that if for any two elementary equivalent structures $\mathbf{M}, \mathbf{N}$ of size at most continuum in a countable language, $\mathbf{M}^{\omega}/ \mathcal{U} \simeq \mathbf{N}^\omega / \mathcal{U}$ for some ultrafilter…
