Use standard notation for forcing: means that is stronger than . A closed forcing order is -closed when every decreasing sequence with has a common lower bound:
The chain condition for forcing is
An antichain in a forcing order consists of pairwise incompatible forcing conditions; incompatibility means having no common stronger extension. In particular, the -chain condition is the countable chain condition for forcing. These properties and their sequences or antichains are computed inside the ground model .
