Abstract:
We define a countable antichain condition (ccc) property for partial orderings, weaker than precalibre-\aleph_1, and show that Martin’s axiom restricted to the class of partial orderings that have the property does not imply Martin’s axiom for \sigma-linked partial orderings. This yields a new solution to an old question of the first author about the relative strength of Martin’s axiom for \sigma-centered partial orderings together with the assertion that every Aronszajn tree is special. We also answer a question of J. Steprans and S. Watson (1988) by showing that, by a forcing that preserves cardinals, one can destroy the precalibre-\aleph_1 property of a partial ordering while preserving its ccc-ness. - Version 2015-06-15_11 (15p) published version (18p)
