Abstract: It is known that the assumption that ``GCH first fails at aleph_{omega} leads to large cardinals in ZFC. Gitik and Koepke have demonstrated that this is not so in ZF: namely there is a generic cardinal-preserving extension of L (or any universe of ZFC + GCH in which all ZF axioms hold, the axiom of choice fails, GCH holds for all cardinals aleph_n, but there is a surjection from PowerSet(aleph_{omega}) onto {lambda}, where {lambda} is any previously chosen cardinal in L greater than aleph_{omega}, for instance, aleph_{omega +17}. In other words, in such an extension GCH holds in proper sense for all cardinals aleph_n but fails at aleph_{omega} in Hartogs' sense. The goal of this note is to analyse the system of automorphisms involved in the Gitik -- Koepke proof.
