Abstract

It is well known that saturation of ideals is closely related to the “antichain-catching” phenomenon from Foreman-Magidor-Shelah [10]. We consider several antichain-catching properties that are weaker than saturation, and prove: (1) If I is a normal ideal on ω2 which satisfies stationary antichain catching, then there is an inner model with a Woodin cardinal; (2) For any n ∈ ω, it is consistent relative to large cardinals that there is a normal ideal I on ωn which satisfies projective antichain catching, yet I is not saturated (or even strong). This provides a negative answer to Open Question number 13 from Foreman’s chapter in the Handbook of Set Theory ([7]).
