The elementary-equivalence classes of clopen algebras of P-spaces

Brian Wynne (2008)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Two Boolean algebras are elementarily equivalent if and only if they satisfy the same first-order statements in the language of Boolean algebras. We prove that every Boolean algebra is elementarily equivalent to the algebra of clopen subsets of a normal P-space.

The number of countable isomorphism types of complete extensions of the theory of Boolean algebras

Paul Iverson (1991)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

There is a conjecture of Vaught [17] which states: Without The Generalized Continuum Hypothesis one can prove the existence of a complete theory with exactly ω 1 nonisomorphic, denumerable models. In this paper we show that there is no such theory in the class of complete extensions of the theory of Boolean algebras. More precisely, any complete extension of the theory of Boolean algebras has either 1 or 2 ω nonisomorphic, countable models. Thus we answer this conjecture in the negative...

On Marczewski-Burstin representable algebras

Marek Balcerzak, Artur Bartoszewicz, Piotr Koszmider (2004)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

We construct algebras of sets which are not MB-representable. The existence of such algebras was previously known under additional set-theoretic assumptions. On the other hand, we prove that every Boolean algebra is isomorphic to an MB-representable algebra of sets.
