On the ideal J[kappa]

Abstract. Motivated by a question from a recent paper by Gilton, Levine and Stejskalova, we obtain a new characterization of the ideal $J[\kappa]$, from which we confirm that $\kappa$-Souslin trees exist in various models of interest. As a corollary we … Continue reading

Bell’s theorem on the cardinal invariant $\mathfrak p$

In this post, we shall provide a proof to a famous theorem of Murray Bell stating that $MA_\kappa(\text{the class of }\sigma\text{-centered posets})$ holds iff $\kappa<\mathfrak p$. We commence with defining the cardinal invariant $\mathfrak p$. For sets $A$ and $B$, … Continue reading
