Adding many Baumgartner clubs

I define a homogeneous ℵ2–c.c. proper product forcing for adding many clubs of ω1 with finite conditions. I use this forcing to build models of b(ω1)=ℵ2, together with d(ω1) and 2ℵ0 large and with very strong failures of club guessing at ω1

A forcing notion collapsing \aleph_3 and preserving all other cardinals

I construct, in ZFC, a forcing notion that collapses \aleph_3 and preserves all other cardinals. The existence of such a forcing answers a question of Uri Abraham from 1983

Separating club-guessing principles in the presence of fat forcing axioms

We separate various weak forms of Club Guessing at $\omega_1$ in the presence of $2^{\aleph_0}$ large, Martin's Axiom, and related forcing axioms. We also answer a question of Abraham and Cummings concerning the consistency of the failure of a certain polychromatic Ramsey statement together with the continuum large. All these models are generic extensions via finite support iterations with symmetric systems of structures as side conditions, possibly enhanced with $\omega$-sequences of predicates, and in which the iterands are taken from a relatively small class of forcing notions. We also prove that the natural forcing for adding a large symmetric system of structures (the first member in all our iterations) adds $\aleph_1$-many reals but preserves CH
