Open coloring and the cardinal invariant $\mathfrak b$
Nik Weaver asked for a direct proof of the fact that Todorcevic’s axiom implies the failure of CH fails. Here goes. Notation. For a set $X$, we write $[X]^2$ for the set of unordered pairs $\{ \{x,x’\}\mid x,x’\in X, x\neq … Continue reading

Hedetniemi’s conjecture for uncountable graphs
Abstract. It is proved that in Godel’s constructible universe, for every successor cardinal $\kappa$, there exist graphs $\mathcal G$ and $\mathcal H$ of size and chromatic number $\kappa$, for which the tensor product graph $\mathcal G\times\mathcal H$ is countably chromatic. … Continue reading

PFA and the tree property at $\aleph_2$
Recall that a poset $\langle T,\le\rangle$ is said to be a $\lambda^+$-Aronszajn tree, if it isomorphic to a poset $(\mathcal T,\subseteq)$ of the form: $\emptyset\in \mathcal T\subseteq{}^{<\lambda^+}\lambda$; Write $\mathcal T_\alpha:=\{\sigma\in\mathcal T\mid \text{dom}(\sigma)=\alpha\}$; for all $\alpha<\lambda^+$, $\mathcal T_\alpha$ has size $\le\lambda$, … Continue reading
A Kurepa tree from diamond-plus
Recall that $T$ is said to be a $\kappa$-Kurepa tree if $T$ is a tree of height $\kappa$, whose levels $T_\alpha$ has size $\le|\alpha|$ for co-boundedly many $\alpha<\kappa$, and such that the set of branches of $T$ has size $>\kappa$. … Continue reading

Chromatic numbers of graphs – large gaps
Abstract. We say that a graph $G$ is $(\aleph_0,\kappa)$-chromatic if $\text{Chr}(G)=\kappa$, while $\text{Chr}(G’)\le\aleph_0$ for any subgraph $G’$ of $G$ of size $<|G|$. The main result of this paper reads as follows. If $\square_\lambda+\text{CH}_\lambda$ holds for a given uncountable cardinal $\lambda$, … Continue reading

The S-space problem, and the cardinal invariant $\mathfrak b$
Recall that an S-space is a regular hereditarily separable topological space which is not hereditarily Lindelöf. In a previous post, we showed that such a space exists after adding a Cohen real. Here, we shall construct one from an arithmetic … Continue reading
An $S$-space from a Cohen real
Recall that an $S$-space is a regular hereditarily separable topological space which is not hereditarily Lindelöf. In this post, we shall establish the consistency of the existence of such a space. Theorem (Roitman, 1979). Let $\mathbb C=({}^{<\omega}\omega,\subseteq)$ be the notion of … Continue reading
Forcing with a Souslin tree makes $\mathfrak p=\omega_1$
I was meaning to include a proof of Farah’s lemma in my previous post, but then I realized that the slick proof assumes some background which may worth spelling out, first. Therefore, I am dedicating a short post for a … Continue reading
