More notions of forcing add a square

Joint work with Yair Hayut and Zhixing You. Abstract.  Foreman and Magidor showed that the continuum hypothesis implies the existence of a countably-closed $\aleph_2$-cc forcing notion $\mathbb P$ for adding $\square_{\omega_1}$. Here, we show that $\mathbb P$ may consistently be … Continue reading →

A model for global compactness

Joint work with Sittinon Jirattikansakul and Inbar Oren. Abstract. In a classical paper by Ben-David and Magidor, a model of set theory was exhibited in which $\aleph_{\omega+1}$ carries a uniform ultrafilter that is $\theta$-indecomposable for every uncountable $\theta<\aleph_\omega$. In this … Continue reading →

Full Souslin trees at small cardinals

Joint work with Shira Yadai and Zhixing You. Abstract. A $\kappa$-tree is full if each of its limit levels omits no more than one potential branch. Kunen asked whether a full $\kappa$-Souslin tree may consistently exist. Shelah gave an affirmative … Continue reading →

A forcing axiom deciding the generalized Souslin Hypothesis

Joint work with Chris Lambie-Hanson. Abstract. We derive a forcing axiom from the conjunction of square and diamond, and present a few applications, primary among them being the existence of super-Souslin trees. It follows that for every uncountable cardinal $\lambda$, … Continue reading →
