The forcing construction ℛmax, invented by W. Hugh Woodin, produces a
model whose collection of subsets of ω₁ is in some sense maximal.
In this paper we study the Boolean algebra induced by the nonstationary ideal
on ω₁ in this model. Among other things we show that the induced
quotient does not have a simply definable form. We also prove several results
about saturation properties of the ideal in this extension.
