Abstract

This paper has three parts. First, we establish some of the basic model theoretic facts about MTM_{\mathcal{T}}, the Tsirelson space of Figiel and Johnson \cite{FJ}. Second, using the results of the first part, we give some facts about general Banach spaces. Third, we study model-theoretic dividing lines in some Banach spaces and their theories. In~particular, we show: (1) MTM_{\mathcal{T}} has the \emph{non independence property} (NIP); (2) every Banach space that is 0\aleph_0-categorical up to small perturbations embeds c0c_0 or p\ell_p (1p<1\leqslant p<\infty) almost isometrically; consequently the (continuous) first-order theory of MTM_{\mathcal{T}} does not characterize MTM_{\mathcal{T}}, up to almost isometric isomorphism.

Comments

In the new version, many changes have been made: (1) there are some necessary functional analysis background, (2) several results have been improved, (3) there are many rearrangements, (4) this version is probably more readable. There were some incomplete ideas in the previous version that were removed in this version
