In 1984 Shelah showed the consistency of $\aleph_1=\mathfrak b<\mathfrak s=\mathfrak a=\aleph_2$, however the original paper is hard to read, because of the old typesetting.
Is there a more modern exposition of this result in some paper or textbook?
Best Answer
After some googling a proof of the consistency of $\mathfrak b<\mathfrak s$, which seems to be following Shelah's construction, can be found as theorem 4.5 in Uri Abraham's chapter of the handbook.
