Abstract
Given an infinite set and a ring as well as a group acting on them, we show that and a subgroup share the same canonical relational structure on if and only if the restriction functor gives an equivalence from the category of discrete representations of to that of . Moreover, the age of this relational structure satisfies the strong amalgamation property if and only if there is a canonical isomorphism from the category of finite substructures of and embeddings to the opposite category of the orbit category of . As an application, we prove that finitely generated discrete representations of highly homogeneous groups over the polynomial ring are Noetherian.
