With this paper's order convention, larger conditions are stronger. A generic filter over is nonempty, closed toward weaker conditions, and directed toward stronger conditions: if , some satisfies . It also meets every which regards as dense in .
For a countable transitive , such a filter containing any prescribed condition can be built by enumerating its dense sets and successively choosing stronger conditions in them. The definition does not require : for an atomic forcing a generic filter may already belong to .
