Todorčević's Tukey basis conjecture for binary relations

At least 20 years old · documented by

Let RR be a binary relation. Write \fulldiamond\fulldiamond for the proper forcing axiom appearing in the source, and let β→(β1;β2)22\beta\to(\beta_1;\beta_2)^2_2 denote the corresponding partition relation. Todorčević's Tukey basis conjecture. In the presence of \fulldiamond\fulldiamond, either

R≤ℵ0⋅ω1R\leq\aleph_0\cdot\omega_1

or

[ω1]<ℵ0≤R.[\omega_1]^{<\aleph_0}\leq R.

This is a basis conjecture for binary relations on ω1\omega_1 in the Tukey order; the paper presents it as a conjecture associated with Todorčević, and the supplied material gives no resolution.
