Abstract:

The general type of problem considered here is the following. Suppose $I$ is a countably complete ideal on ${\omega _1}$ satisfying some fairly strong saturation requirement (e.g. $I$ is precipitous or ${\omega _2}$-saturated), and suppose that $P$ is a partial ordering satisfying some kind of chain condition requirement (e.g. $P$ has the c.c.c. or forcing with $P$ preserves ${\omega _1}$). Does it follow that forcing with $P$ preserves the saturation property of $I$? In this context we consider not only precipitous and ${\omega _2}$-saturated ideals, but we also introduce and study a class of ideals that are characterized by a property lying strictly between these two notions. Some generalized versions of Chang’s conjecture and Kurepa’s hypothesis also arise naturally from these considerations.
