Fraenkel \(\cal N10\): Höft/Howard/Mostowski Model | Back to this models page

Description: (The model is a variation of\(\cal N3\).) \(A\) as ordered by \(\precsim\) has the same order type as therationals; \(\cal G\) is the group of all order automorphisms of \(A\); \(S\) isthe set of all subsets \(E\) of \(A\) that satisfy the following threeconditions:\item{1.} \(E\) is well ordered by \(\precsim\).\item{2.} \(E\) is bounded in \(A\).\item{3.} If \(b:\alpha\to E\) is an order preserving bijection from\(\alpha\) onto \(E\) and if \(\lambda < \alpha\) is a limit ordinal then\(\{b(\beta) : \beta < \gamma\}\) has no least upper bound in\((A,\precsim)\).\par\noindentIn H\"oft/Howard [1994] it is shown that, in \(\cal N10\), everyDedekind finite set is finite (9 is true), but \((A,\precsim)\) is alinearly ordered set with no infinite descending sequences that cannot bewell ordered (77 is false)

When the book was first being written, only the following form classes were known to be true in this model:

Form Howard-Rubin Number Statement
6

\(UT(\aleph_0,\aleph_0,\aleph_0,\Bbb R)\): The union of a denumerable  family  of denumerable subsets of \({\Bbb R}\) is denumerable.

9

Finite \(\Leftrightarrow\) Dedekind finite: \(W_{\aleph_{0}}\) Jech [1973b]: \(E(I,IV)\) Howard/Yorke [1989]): Every Dedekind finite set is finite.

37

Lebesgue measure is countably additive.

63

\(SPI\): Weak ultrafilter principle: Every infinite set has a non-trivial ultrafilter.
Jech [1973b], p 172 prob 8.5.

91

\(PW\):  The power set of a well ordered set can be well ordered.

130

\({\cal P}(\Bbb R)\) is well orderable.

191

\(SVC\): There is a set \(S\) such that for every set \(a\), there is an ordinal \(\alpha\) and a function from \(S\times\alpha\) onto \(a\).

273

There is a subset of \({\Bbb R}\) which is not Borel.

305

There are \(2^{\aleph_0}\) Vitali equivalence classes. (Vitali equivalence classes are equivalence classes of the real numbers under the relation \(x\equiv y\leftrightarrow(\exists q\in{\Bbb Q})(x-y=q)\).). \ac{Kanovei} \cite{1991}.

309

The Banach-Tarski Paradox: There are three finite partitions \(\{P_1,\ldots\), \(P_n\}\), \(\{Q_1,\ldots,Q_r\}\) and \(\{S_1,\ldots,S_n, T_1,\ldots,T_r\}\) of \(B^3 = \{x\in {\Bbb R}^3 : |x| \le 1\}\) such that \(P_i\) is congruent to \(S_i\) for \(1\le i\le n\) and \(Q_i\) is congruent to \(T_i\) for \(1\le i\le r\).

313

\(\Bbb Z\) (the set of integers under addition) is amenable.  (\(G\) is {\it amenable} if there is a finitely additive measure \(\mu\) on \(\cal P(G)\) such that \(\mu(G) = 1\) and \(\forall A\subseteq G, \forall g\in G\), \(\mu(gA)=\mu(A)\).)

361

In \(\Bbb R\), the union of a denumerable number of analytic sets is analytic. G. Moore [1982], pp 181 and 325.

363

There are exactly \(2^{\aleph_0}\) Borel sets in \(\Bbb R\). G. Moore [1982], p 325.

368

The set of all denumerable subsets of \(\Bbb R\) has power \(2^{\aleph_0}\).

369

If \(\Bbb R\) is partitioned into two sets, at least one of them has cardinality \(2^{\aleph_0}\).

When the book was first being written, only the following form classes were known to be false in this model:

Form Howard-Rubin Number Statement
77

A linear ordering of a set \(P\) is a well ordering if and only if \(P\) has no infinite descending sequences. Jech [1973b], p 23.

88

  \(C(\infty ,2)\):  Every family of pairs has a choice function.

106

Baire Category Theorem for Compact Hausdorff Spaces: Every compact Hausdorff space is Baire.

344

If \((E_i)_{i\in I}\) is a family of non-empty sets, then there is a family \((U_i)_{i\in I}\) such that \(\forall i\in I\), \(U_i\) is an ultrafilter on \(E_i\).

Historical background: In addition (see Note 113) there is aninfinite set of pairs with no choice function (88 is false). Since 70(There is a non-trivial ultrafilter on \(\omega\).) is true in every FMmodel and 9 + 70 implies 63 (Every infinite set has a non-trivialultrafilter.), 63 is also true.
