Cohen \(\cal M45\): Pincus' Model VII | Back to this models page

Description: This is the model of Pincus [1977a], Theorem 2.1 \((C)\)

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
30

Ordering Principle: Every set can be linearly ordered.

43

\(DC(\omega)\) (DC), Principle of Dependent Choices: If \(S\)  is  a relation on a non-empty set \(A\) and \((\forall x\in A) (\exists y\in A)(x S y)\)  then there is a sequence \(a(0), a(1), a(2), \ldots\) of elements of \(A\) such that \((\forall n\in\omega)(a(n)\mathrel S a(n+1))\).  See Tarski [1948], p 96, Levy [1964], p. 136.

214

\(Z(\omega)\): For every family \(A\) of infinite sets, there is a function \(f\) such that for all \(y\in A\), \(f(y)\) is a non-empty subset of \(y\) and \(|f(y)|=\aleph_{0}\).

295

DO:  Every infinite set has a dense linear ordering.

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
49

Order Extension Principle: Every partial ordering can be extended to a linear ordering.  Tarski [1924], p 78.

67

\(MC(\infty,\infty)\) \((MC)\), The Axiom of Multiple Choice: For every set \(M\) of non-empty sets there is a function \(f\) such that \((\forall x\in M)(\emptyset\neq f(x)\subseteq x\) and \(f(x)\) is finite).

91

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

99

Rado's Selection Lemma: Let \(\{K(\lambda): \lambda \in\Lambda\}\) be a family  of finite subsets (of \(X\)) and suppose for each finite \(S\subseteq\Lambda\) there is a function \(\gamma(S): S \rightarrow X\) such that \((\forall\lambda\in S)(\gamma(S)(\lambda)\in K(\lambda))\).  Then there is an \(f: \Lambda\rightarrow X\) such that for every finite \(S\subseteq\Lambda\) there is a finite \(T\) such that \(S\subseteq T\subseteq\Lambda\) and such that \(f\) and \(\gamma (T)\) agree on S.

133  

Every set is either well orderable or has an infinite amorphous subset.

151

\(UT(WO,\aleph_{0},WO)\) (\(U_{\aleph_{1}}\)): The union of a well ordered set of denumerable sets is well  orderable. (If \(\kappa\) is a well ordered cardinal, see note 27 for \(UT(WO,\kappa,WO)\).)

163

Every non-well-orderable set has an infinite, Dedekind finite subset.

328

\(MC(WO,\infty)\): For  every well ordered set \(X\) such that for all \(x\in X\), \(|x|\ge 1\), there is a function \(f\) such that and for every \(x\in X\), \(f(x)\) is a finite, non-empty subset of \(x\). (See Form 67.)

329

\(MC(\infty,WO)\): For  every set \(M\) of well orderable sets such that for all \(x\in X\), \(|x|\ge 1\), there is a function \(f\) such that for every \(x\in X\), \(f(x)\) is a finite, non-empty subset of \(x\).  (See Form 67.)

Historical background: (C). It uses Pincus' general method foradding dependent choice (43). Beginning with a model \(\cal M\) of ZF +``The class form of choice'', Pincus adds three generic \(\omega_1\)sequences: \(\langle I_\alpha : \alpha < \omega_1 \rangle\), \(\langleA_\alpha : \alpha < \omega_1 \rangle\) and \(\langle \frak A_\alpha : \alpha< \omega_1 \rangle\). The sets \(I_\alpha\), \(\alpha < \omega_1\) areobtained as in \(\cal M1(\langle\omega_1\rangle)\), \(A_\alpha\) is a genericset of disjoint subsets of \(I_\alpha\) and \(\frak A_\alpha\) is agenerically added universal homogeneous structure for the theory ofpartial orders together with a dense linear order both with domain\(A_\alpha\). (See Pincus [1977a] for definitions.) In Pincus [1977a], it is shown that in \(\cal M45\) the Ordering Principle (30)is true, Dependent Choice (43) is true, ``For every collection \(A\) of setseach of which has cardinality at least \(\aleph_0\), there is a function \(f\)with domain \(A\) such that \(\forall x\in A\), \(f(x)\subseteq x\) and \(|f(x)|= \aleph_0\).'' (214) is true but the Order Extension Principle (49) isfalse.Form 43 impliesForm 296 (Every infinite set is the disjoint unionof infinitely many infinite sets.) and it is shown in Pincus [1997] that 30 + 296 implies 295 (Every infinite set has a denselinear ordering.) Thus,Form 295 is true.
