Abstract

There exists a family of sets of countable ordinals such that:

(1) max Bα = α,

(2) if α ∈ Bβ then Bα ⊆ Bβ,

(3) if λ ≤ α and λ is a limit ordinal then Bα ∩ λ is not in the ideal generated by the Bβ, β < α, and by the bounded subsets of λ,

(4) there is a partition of ω1 such that for every α and every n, Bα ∩ An is finite.
