Jul 16, 2017 at 17:28 comment added Ashutosh Call an infinite cardinal $\kappa$ Kunen if the sigma algebra generated by $\{A \times B : A, B \subseteq \kappa\}$ contains every subset of $\kappa \times \kappa$. The set of Kunen cardinals forms an initial segment of cardinals, closed under countable suprema, with the psuedointersection number (denoted $\mathfrak{p}$) as a member. In the Cohen real model (obtained by adding $\aleph_2$ Cohen reals to $L$) the continuum is not Kunen (see Kunen's 1968 thesis). This also holds in the random real model (obtained by adding $\aleph_2$ random reals to $L$).
