Omitting types for infinitary [0, 1]-valued logic

Logic 2019-05-31 v6

Abstract

We describe an infinitary logic for metric structures which is analogous to Lω1,ωL_{\omega_1, \omega}. We show that this logic is capable of expressing several concepts from analysis that cannot be expressed in finitary continuous logic. Using topological methods, we prove an omitting types theorem for countable fragments of our infinitary logic. We use omitting types to prove a two-cardinal theorem, which yields a strengthening of a result of Ben Yaacov and Iovino concerning separable quotients of Banach spaces.
