We prove that any two general probabilistic theories (GPTs) are entangleable, in the sense that their composite exhibits either entangled states or entangled measurements, if and only if they are both non-classical, meaning that neither of…
We develop the complex-analytic viewpoint on the tree convolutions studied by the second author and Weihua Liu in "An operad of non-commutative independences defined by trees" (Dissertationes Mathematicae, 2020, doi:10.4064/dm797-6-2020),…
We prove that any tame abstract elementary class categorical in a suitable cardinal has an eventually global good frame: a forking-like notion defined on all types of single elements. This gives the first known general construction of a…
In the setup of abstract elementary classes satisfying a local version of superstability, we prove the uniqueness property for $\mu$-forking, a certain independence notion arising from splitting. This had been a longstanding technical…
The paper deals with two issues: the existence of universal models of a theory T and related properties when cardinal arithmetic does not give this existence offhand. In the first section we prove that simple theories (e.g., theories…
We introduce notions of stationarily ordered types and theories; the latter generalizes weak o-minimality and the first is a relaxed version of weak o-minimality localized at the locus of a single type. We show that forking, as a binary…
We introduce MTT, a dependent type theory which supports multiple modalities. MTT is parametrized by a mode theory which specifies a collection of modes, modalities, and transformations between them. We show that different choices of mode…
We develop a general theory of extensions of flat functors along geometric morphisms of toposes, and apply it to the study of the class of theories whose classifying topos is equivalent to a presheaf topos. As a result, we obtain a…
Taking inspiration from [1, 21, 24], we develop a general framework to deal with the model theory of open incidence structures. In this first paper we focus on the study of systems of points and lines (rank $2$). This has a number of…
We show that we can interpret concatenation theories in arithmetical theories without coding sequences.
Tangle-tree theorems are an important tool in structural graph theory, and abstract separation systems are a very general setting in which tangle-tree theorems can still be formulated and proven. For infinite abstract separation systems, so…
We show that for each property $\mathsf{P}\in \{\mathsf{OP}, \mathsf{IP}, \mathsf{TP}_1, \mathsf{TP}_2, \mathsf{ATP}, \mathsf{SOP}_3\}$ there is a poset $\Sigma_{\mathsf{P}}$ such that a theory has property $\mathsf{P}$ if and only if some…
We give an overview of some developments in dependence and independence logic. This is a tiny selection, intended for a newcomer, from a rapidly growing literature on the topic. Furthermore, we discuss conditional independence atoms and we…
Models of dependent type theories are contextual categories with some additional structure. We prove that if a theory $T$ has enough structure, then the category $T\text{-}\mathbf{Mod}$ of its models carries the structure of a model…
We consider the problem of formalizing the familiar notion of widening in abstract interpretation in higher-order logic. It turns out that many axioms of widening (e.g. widening sequences are ascending) are not useful for proving…
We introduce and examine some special classes of invariant types$\unicode{x2014}$bi-invariant, strongly bi-invariant, extendibly invariant, and reliably invariant types$\unicode{x2014}$and show that they are related to certain…
We look for partition theorems for large subtrees for suitable uncountable trees and colourings. We concentrate on sub-trees of $^{\kappa \ge} 2$ expanded by a well ordering of each level. Unlike earlier works, we do not ask the embedding…
We present a general and user-extensible equality checking algorithm that is applicable to a large class of type theories. The algorithm has a type-directed phase for applying extensionality rules and a normalization phase based on…
If $T$ has dependent dividing, then the burden agrees with the dp-rank witnessed by NIP formulas. We use this observation to prove that if $T$ has dependent dividing, then the burden is sub-additive. We also state a connection between the…
Type theory plays an important role in foundations of mathematics as a framework for formalizing mathematics and a base for proof assistants providing semi-automatic proof checking and construction. Derivation of each theorem in type theory…
