In set theory, forcing is a technique for proving consistency and independence results. Intuitively, forcing can be thought of as a technique to expand the set theoretical universe V {\displaystyle V} to a larger universe V [ G ] {\displaystyle V[G]} by introducing a new "generic" object G {\displaystyle G} .
