a shorter proof: Martin’s axiom and the continuum hypothesis
This is another, shorter, proof for the fact that MAℵ0 always holds.
Let (P,≤) be a partially ordered set and 𝒟 be a collection
of subsets of P. We remember that a filter G on (P,≤) is 𝒟-generic
if G∩D≠∅ for all D∈𝒟 which are dense in (P,≤). (In this context “dense” means: If D is dense in (P,≤), then for every p∈P there’s a d∈D such that d≤p.)
Let (P,≤) be a partially ordered set and 𝒟 a countable collection of dense subsets of P. Then there exists a 𝒟-generic filter G on P. Moreover, it could be shown that for every p∈P there’s such a 𝒟-generic filter G with p∈G.
Proof.
