Theory of stable models is the mathematical basis of answer set programming. Several results in that theory refer to the concept of the positive dependency graph of a logic program. We describe a modification of that concept and show that…

We study generically stable types/measures in both classical and continuous logics, and their connection with randomization and modes of convergence of types/measures.

This paper develops a version of dependent type theory in which isomorphism is handled through a direct generalization of the 1939 definitions of Bourbaki. More specifically we generalize the Bourbaki definition of structure from simple…

Let T be an NIP L-theory and T' be an enrichment. We give a sufficient condition on T' for the underlying L-type of any definable (respectively invariant) type over a model of T' to be definable (respectively invariant) as an L-type.…

We compute the rational stable homology of the automorphism groups of free nilpotent groups. These groups interpolate between the general linear groups over the ring of integers and the automorphism groups of free groups, and we employ…

We study non-orthogonality of symmetric, regular types and show that it preserves generic stability and is an equivalence relation on the set of all generically stable, regular types. We will also prove that some of the nice properties from…

We characterize nonforking (Morley) sequences in dependent theories in terms of a generalization of Poizat's special sequences and show that average types of Morley sequences are stationary over their domains. We characterize generically…

We presents an independence relation on sets, one can define dimension by it, assuming that we have an abstract elementary class with a forking notion that satisfies the axioms of a good frame minus stability.

We provide several crucial technical extensions of the theory of stable independence notions in accessible categories. In particular, we describe circumstances under which a stable independence notion can be transferred from a subcategory…

We develop foundational aspects of stability theory in affine logic. On the one hand, we prove appropriate affine versions of many classical results, including definability of types, existence of non-forking extensions, and other…

The classes stable, simple and NSOP$_1$ in the stability hierarchy for first-order theories can be characterised by the existence of a certain independence relation. For each of them there is a canonicity theorem: there can be at most one…

We give a category-theoretic construction of simple and NSOP$_1$-like independence relations in locally finitely presentable categories, and in the more general locally finitely multipresentable categories. We do so by identifying…

This technical report investigates Kripke-style modal type theories, both simply typed and dependently typed. We examine basic meta-theories of the type theories, develop their substitution calculi, and give normalization by evaluation…

The basics of Intuitionistic Kripke-Platek set theory are developed, and some independence results among related classically equivalent theories are shown using Kripke models.

A dependent theory is a (first order complete theory) T which does not have the independence property. A main result here is: if we expand a model of T by the traces on it of sets definable in a bigger model then we preserve its being…

Following the types-as-sets paradigm, we present a mechanized embedding of dependent function types with a hierarchy of universes into schematic first-order logic with equality, with axiom schemas of Tarski-Grothendieck set theory. We carry…

We give category-theoretic reformulations of stability, NIP, NTP, and non-dividing by observing that their characterisations in terms of indiscernible sequences are naturally expressed as Quillen lifting properties %(negation) of certain…

We show that if a universal theory is not monadically NIP, then this is witnessed by a canonical configuration defined by an existential formula. As a consequence, we show that a hereditary class of relational structures is NIP (resp.…

We develop normalisation by evaluation (NBE) for dependent types based on presheaf categories. Our construction is formulated in the metalanguage of type theory using quotient inductive types. We use a typed presentation hence there are no…

In this short note we show that if we add predicate for a dense complete indiscernible sequence in a dependent theory then the result is still dependent. This answers a question of Baldwin and Benedikt and implies that every unstable…
