| contents | We show that if $κ< \aleph_ω$ Cohen reals are added to a model of $\mathsf{CH}$, then there are nontrivial automorphisms of $\mathcal P(ω)/\mathrm{Fin}$ in the extension. Under some further hypotheses on the ground model, namely the existence of long enough sage Davies trees (which follows from $\mathsf{SCH}$ plus $\square_λ$ for every $λ$ with $\mathrm{cf}(λ) = ω$), we prove the same result for cardinals $κ\geq \aleph_ω$ as well. This extends a result a Shelah and Steprāns, who proved the result for $κ= \aleph_2$. |
