Abstract

In [15] we defined and proved the consistency of the principle $\mathrm {GM}^+(\omega _3,\omega _1)$ which implies that many consequences of strong forcing axioms hold simultaneously at $\omega _2$ and $\omega _3$. In this paper we formulate a strengthening of $\mathrm {GM}^+(\omega _3,\omega _1)$ that we call $\mathrm {SGM}^+(\omega _3,\omega _1)$. We also prove, modulo the consistency of two supercompact cardinals, that $\mathrm {SGM}^+(\omega _3,\omega _1)$ is consistent with ZFC. In addition to all the consequences of $\mathrm {GM}^+(\omega _3,\omega _1)$, the principle $\mathrm {SGM}^+(\omega _3,\omega _1)$, together with some mild cardinal arithmetic assumptions that hold in our model, implies that any forcing that adds a new subset of $\omega _2$ either adds a real or collapses some cardinal. This gives a partial answer to a question of Abraham [1] and extends a previous result of Todorčević [16] in this direction.
