Closures and generating sets related to combinations of structures

Abstract

We investigate closure operators and describe their properties for EE-combinations and PP-combinations of structures and their theories. We prove, for EE-combinations, that the existence of a minimal generating set of theories is equivalent to the existence of the least generating set, and characterize syntactically and semantically the property of the existence of the least generating set. For the class of linearly ordered language uniform theories we solve the problem of the existence of least generating set with respect to EE-combinations and characterize that existence in terms of orders.
