Full Amalgamation Classes with Intrinsic Transcendentals

Logic 2015-12-15 v1

Abstract

We develop some basic results about full amalgamation classes with intrinsic trascendentals. These classes have generics whose models may have finite subsets whose intrinsic closure is not contained in its algebraic closure. We will show that under fairly natural conditions the generic will have an essentially undecidable theory, but we will also exhibit strictly superstable and strictly simple examples. Separating types over a model into those that are intrinsic and those that are extrinsic, we will demonstrate that the complexity exceeding that of a simple theory in the classes with essentially undecidable theories of [1] comes from the intrinsic types by deriving a class from them which has a strictly simple theory with few intrinsic types. 1.
