The structure Dense /nwd and gaps in analytic quotients of equation image have been studied in the literature 2, 3, 1. We prove that the structures Dense /nwd and equation image have gaps of type equation image, and there are no -gaps for equation image, where equation image is the additivity number of the meager ideal. We also prove the existence of -gaps in these structures. Finally we characterize the cofinality of the meager ideal equation image using families of sets (...) in Dense /nwd. (shrink)

We also prove the existence of (ω1, ω1)-gaps in these structures. Finally we characterize the (...) cofinality of the meager ideal \documentclass{article}\usepackage{amssymb,mathrsfs}\begin{document}\pagestyle{empty}$\mathrm{cof}(\ mathscr {M})$\end{document} using families of sets in \documentclass{article}\usepackage{amssymb,mathrsfs}\begin{document}\pagestyle{empty}$\mathrm{Dense} (\mathbb {Q})/\mathbf {nwd}$\end{document}.
