Those are equivalent to Cohen forcing and Random Real forcing for N N; in spite of this similarity, the Cohen forcing and Random Real forcing have very different shapes. One of these differences is in the fact that the Cohen forcing has an easy natural generalization for λ 2 for regular λ > ℵ 0 , corresponding to an extension for the meagre sets, while the Random Real forcing didn't seem to have a natural generalization, as Lebesgue measure doesn't have a generalization for space 2 λ while λ > ℵ 0. The work [6] found a forcing resembling the properties of Random Real forcing for 2 λ while λ is a weakly compact cardinal. Here we describe, with additional assumptions, such a forcing for 2 λ while λ is just an Inaccessible Cardinal; this forcing is strategically < λ-complete and satisfies the λ +-c.c. hence preserves cardinals and cofinalities, however unlike Cohen forcing, does not add an undominated real.
