Aug 23, 2020 at 0:28 | comment | added | Gabe Goldberg | @MattF Thanks for pointing out that typo. The question asks for a way of recovering the forcing machinery from the proof that forcing preserves ZFC. That's all I tried to accomplish in my answer. $\Vdash$ is motivated by a natural question: what can we conclude about a good extension $M[G]$ given that $p\in G$? We allow terms for elements of $M[G]$, elements of $M$, and a constant for $G$. This notation is used to express hypotheses on good $G$. The first three hypotheses are exactly what's required for the short proof that $M[G]$ satisfies ZFC. And $\dot{G}$ is pronounced "gee dot." | |

Aug 22, 2020 at 16:15 | comment | added | Timothy Chow | @MattF. : I think I can answer the first question, which is that the intent was to say "for all good $G$ containing $p$." | |
Aug 22, 2020 at 7:56 | comment | added | user44143 | As someone who has never found forcing intuitive...I lose you at the word “write”. Why do we say “write $p$...” when the definition does not involve $p$? How are we supposed to pronounce this $\dot G$? Why did we switch from figuring out which sets are good to figuring out which $\sigma$ and $a$ satisfy a criterion for all good sets? | |
