Power set in a generic extension

ID: power-set-in-a-generic-extension

For a forcing name , let consist of pairs where for some . Every ground-model subset of is a name whose value is contained in . Every subset has an equivalent such name: retain those with . The atomic membership truth lemma for forcing proves equality of values. Collect all these names from the ground-model power set into a single outer name, pairing each with every condition. Its value is the full internal power set, without presupposing that power set in the extension.
