Genericity for Mathias forcing over general Turing ideals

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: In Mathias forcing, conditions are pairs (D,S) of sets of natural numbers, in which D is finite, S is infinite, and maxD<minS. The Turing degrees and computational characteristics of generics for this forcing in the special (but important) case where the infinite sets S are computable were thoroughly explored by Cholak, Dzhafarov, Hirst, and Slaman~cite{CDHS-2014}. In this paper, we undertake a similar investigation for the case where the sets S are members of general countable Turing ideals, and give conditions under which generics for Mathias forcing over one ideal compute generics for Mathias forcing over another. It turns out that if mathcalI does not contain only the computable sets, then non-trivial information can be encoded into the generics for Mathias forcing over mathcalI. We give a classification of this information in terms of computability-theoretic properties of the ideal, using coding techniques that also yield new results about introreducibility. In particular, we extend a result of Slaman and Groszek and show that there is an infinite Delta30 set with no introreducible subset of the same degree.
