In this paper we study the notion of forcing for Lukasiewicz predicate logic ( L∀, for short), along the lines of Robinson’s forcing in classical model theory. We deal with both finite and infinite forcing. As regard to the former we prove a Generic Model Theorem for L∀, while for the latter, we study the generic and existentially complete standard models of L∀.

The forcing theorem is the most fundamental result about set forcing, stating that the forcing relation for any set forcing is definable and that the truth lemma holds, that is everything that holds in a generic extension is forced by a condition in the relevant generic filter. We show that both the definability (and, in fact, even the amenability) of the forcing relation and the truth lemma ca...

These notes present a compact and self contained development of the theory of iterated forcing with a focus on semiproperness and revised countable support iterations. We shall pursue the approach to iterated forcing devised by Donder and Fuchs in [4], thus we shall present iterated forcing by means of directed system of complete and injective homomorphisms of complete boolean algebras. A guidi...

For a connected graph G = (V,E), a set W ⊆ V is called a Steiner set of G if every vertex of G is contained in a Steiner W -tree of G. The Steiner number s(G) of G is the minimum cardinality of its Steiner sets and any Steiner set of cardinality s(G) is a minimum Steiner set of G. For a minimum Steiner set W of G, a subset T ⊆ W is called a forcing subset for W if W is the unique minimum Steine...
