Abstract

We analyze the modified extender based forcing from Assaf Sharon’s PhD thesis. We show there is a bad scale in the extension and therefore weak square fails. We also present two metatheorems which give a rough characterization of when a diagonal Prikry-type forcing forces the failure of weak square.
