More on the density zero ideal

Publication date 8 December 2017

Abstract: The main result of this paper is an improvement of the upper bound on the cardinal invariant

{m a t h o r d m a t h r m c o v}^{a s t} ({m a t h c a l Z}_{0})

that was discovered by Raghavan and Shelah in an earlier paper. Here

{m a t h c a l Z}_{0}

is the ideal of subsets of the set of natural numbers that have asymptotic density zero. This improved upper bound is also dualized to get a better lower bound on the cardinal

{m a t h o r d m a t h r m n o n}^{a s t} ({m a t h c a l Z}_{0})

. En route some variations on the splitting number are introduced and several relationships between these variants are proved.
