Atomless forcing order

ID: atomless-forcing-order

An order is atomless if it has no forcing atom, equivalently every condition has a pair of incompatible forcing conditions below it. For a fixed order belonging to a transitive model, this property is absolute because its quantifiers range over the unchanged set of conditions. Infinite-domain Fn forcing with at least two possible values is atomless: prescribe different values at one fresh coordinate.
