$\omega_2$-sequence of Suslin trees
Is it possible to have an $\omega_2$-length sequence of ($\omega_1$-)Suslin trees such that if one builds the product of finitely many trees in that sequence, one ends up with a Suslin tree again?
Th …

What ccc forcings add a Suslin tree?
It is consistent that the answer is no.
If we start with $L$ as our ground model then whenever $T$ is a Suslin tree, the forcing $\mathbb{P}_T$ which shoots a branch through $T$ will always introduce …

The origins of forcing in mathematical logic and other branches of mathematics
One application I know is Scott's construction of forcing extensions of models of higher order theories of the Real numbers. Scott quickly after the invention of forcing, used a forcing argument to sh …

Formal proof of Con(ZFC) => Con(ZFC + not CH) in ZFC
The usual strategy to prove that the negation of $CH$ is consistent with $ZFC$ is the following: One shows (under the assumption $Con(ZFC)$ that for any finite fragment $T$ of $ZFC$ we have that $T+ …

Complexity of the statement 'P is proper'
Assume that $(P,\le)$ is a notion of forcing. There are several ways to define what it means for $P$ being proper and I would like to know: What is the complexity (in terms of the Levy-Hierarchy) of t …

Complexity of the statement 'P is proper'
I think that I might have found a solution to this rather dispensable question. I will sketch it:
Consider the following characterization of properness:
$P$ is proper iff for all $\lambda > 2^{|P|}$ …

Equivalent definitions of $(M,P)$-genericity
Hi!
I started to read the chapter 31 in Jechs book about proper forcing. Unfortunately it is written in a rather sketchy way and I do have some issues in proving a lemma about two equivalent definiti …

Why is this set stationary?
Hi
I really need a proof for the following statement by Baumgartner:
There exists a stationary subset of $[\omega_2]^{\omega}$ of size $\aleph_2$.
This is Exercise 38.15. in Jechs Book (2003) and …

Set theory and Model Theory
I totally agree with the answers already given but I still want to say something to your question, which emphasizes probably the formalist side. To cut a long story short the foundation of model theor …
