Directed schemes of ideals and cardinal characteristics. I: The meager additive ideal
[Schémas dirigés d’idéaux et caractéristiques cardinales. I : L’idéal maigre-additif]
Comptes Rendus. Mathématique, Volume 364 (2026), pp. 107-125

We introduce the notion of directed scheme of ideals to characterize peculiar ideals on the reals, which comes from a formalization of the framework of Yorioka ideals for strong measure zero sets. We prove general theorems for directed schemes and propose a directed scheme $\vec{\mathcal{M}} = \lbrace \mathcal{M}_I : I\in \mathbb{I}\rbrace $ for the ideal $\mathcal{MA}$ of meager-additive sets of reals. This directed scheme does not only helps us to understand more the combinatorics of $\mathcal{MA}$ and its cardinal characteristics, but provides us new characterizations of the additivity and cofinality numbers of the meager ideal of the reals.

In addition, we display connections between the characteristics associated with $\mathcal{M}_I$ and other classical characteristics. Furthermore, we demonstrate the consistency of $\operatorname{cov}(\mathcal{NA})<\mathfrak{c}$ and $\operatorname{cof}(\mathcal{MA})<\operatorname{non}(\mathcal{SN})$. The first one answers a question raised by the authors in [14].

Nous introduisons la notion de schéma orienté d’idéaux pour caractériser les idéaux particuliers sur les réels, qui provient d’une formalisation du cadre des idéaux de Yorioka pour les ensembles de mesure fortement nulle. Nous prouvons des théorèmes généraux pour les schémas orientés et proposons un schéma orienté $\vec{\mathcal{M}} = \lbrace \mathcal{M}_I : I\in \mathbb{I}\rbrace $ pour l’idéal $\mathcal{MA}$ des ensembles maigres-additifs de réels. Ce schéma orienté nous aide non seulement à mieux comprendre la combinatoire de $\mathcal{MA}$ et ses caractéristiques cardinales, mais nous fournit également de nouvelles caractérisations des nombres d’additivité et de cofinalité de l’idéal maigre des réels.

De plus, nous montrons les liens entre les caractéristiques associées à $\mathcal{M}_I$ et d’autres caractéristiques classiques. En outre, nous démontrons la cohérence de $\operatorname{cov}(\mathcal{NA})<\mathfrak{c}$ et $\operatorname{cof}(\mathcal{MA})<\operatorname{non}(\mathcal{SN})$. Le premier de ces deux résultats répond à une question soulevée par les auteurs dans [14].
