Decompositions of saturated models of stable theories

M. C. Laskowski, S. Shelah (2006)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We characterize the stable theories T for which the saturated models of T admit decompositions. In particular, we show that countable, shallow, stable theories with NDOP have this property.

Dense pairs of o-minimal structures

Lou van den Dries (1998)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

The structure of definable sets and maps in dense elementary pairs of o-minimal expansions of ordered abelian groups is described. It turns out that a certain notion of "small definable set" plays a special role in this description.

Existentially closed II₁ factors

Ilijas Farah, Isaac Goldbring, Bradd Hart, David Sherman (2016)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We examine the properties of existentially closed ( ω -embeddable) II₁ factors. In particular, we use the fact that every automorphism of an existentially closed ( ω -embeddable) II₁ factor is approximately inner to prove that Th() is not model-complete. We also show that Th() is complete for both finite and infinite forcing and use the latter result to prove that there exist continuum many nonisomorphic existentially closed models of Th().

Locally finite theories with model companion

Paolo Lipparini (1982)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

Si dà, mediante condizioni per l'amalgamabilità di tre modelli, una caratterizzazione completa delle teorie localmente finite con model-compagno. Si introduce inoltre un concetto intermedio tra quelli di model-compagno e model-completamento.

On embedding models of arithmetic of cardinality ℵ₁ into reduced powers

Juliette Kennedy, Saharon Shelah (2003)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

In the early 1970’s S. Tennenbaum proved that all countable models of PA₁¯ + ∀₁ -Th(ℕ) are embeddable into the reduced product ω / , where ℱ is the cofinite filter. In this paper we show that if M is a model of PA¯ + ∀₁ - Th(ℕ), and |M| = ℵ₁, then M is embeddable into ω / D , where D is any regular filter on ω.
