Mixed identities for oligomorphic automorphism groups

Group Theory 2025-08-20 v3 Logic

Abstract

We study mixed identities for oligomorphic automorphism groups of countable relational structures. Our main result gives sufficient conditions for such a group to not admit a mixed identity without particular constants. We study numerous examples and prove in many cases that there cannot be a non-singular mixed identity.
