A Universal Continuum of Weight ℵ

چکیده
We prove that every continuum of weight א1 is a continuous image of the Čech-Stone-remainder R of the real line. It follows that under CH the remainder of the half line [0,∞) is universal among the continua of weight c. We complement this result by showing that 1) under MA every continuum of weight less than c is a continuous image of R, 2) in the Cohen model the long segment of length ω2 + 1 is not a continuous image of R, and 3) PFA implies that Iu is not a continuous image of R, whenever u is a c-saturated ultrafilter.

A Universal Continuum of Weight ℵ
We prove that every continuum of weight ℵ 1 is a continuous image of thě Cech-Stone-remainder R * of the real line. It follows that under CH the remainder of the half line [0, ∞) is universal among the continua of weight c — universal in the 'mapping onto' sense. We complement this result by showing that 1) under MA every continuum of weight less than c is a continuous image of R * , 2) in the ...
متن کاملLarge Continuum, Oracles Sh895
Our main theorem is about iterated forcing for making the continuum larger than ℵ 2. We present a generalization of [Sh:669] which dealt with oracles for random, (also for other cases and generalities), by replacing ℵ 1 , ℵ 2 by λ, λ + (starting with λ = λ <λ > ℵ 1). Well, we demand absolute c.c.c. So we get, e.g. the continuum is λ + but we can get cov(meagre) = λ and we give some applications...
متن کاملUniversal in (< Λ)-stable Abelian Group
A characteristic result is that if 2 ℵ 0 < µ < µ + < λ = cf(λ) < µ ℵ 0 , then among the separable reduced p-groups of cardinality λ which are (< λ)-stable there is no universal one.
متن کامل5 Counterexamples to Vaught ’ s Conjecture
A sentence σ ∈ L ω1,ω is a counterexample to Vaught's Conjecture, or simply a counterexample, if ℵ 0 < I(σ, ℵ 0) < 2 ℵ0 , i.e., σ has uncountably many countable models but fewer than continuum many models. Fix σ a counterexample. A key fact about counterexamples is that there are few types for any count-able fragment. Let F be a fragment. Let
متن کاملA COMMENT ON “p < t”
A COMMENT ON " p < t " SAHARON SHELAH Abstract. Dealing with the cardinal invariants p and t of the continuum we prove that m ≥ p = ℵ 2 ⇒ t = ℵ 2. In other words, if MA ℵ 1 (or a weak version of this) holds, then (of course ℵ 2 ≤ p ≤ t and) p = ℵ 2 ⇒ p = t. The proof is based on a criterion for p < t. 0. Introduction We are interested in two cardinal invariants of the continuum, p and t. The ca...
