We show that metric abstract elementary classes (mAECs) are, in the sense of [LR] (i.e. arXiv:1404.2528), coherent accessible categories with directed colimits, with concrete $\aleph_1$-directed colimits and concrete monomorphisms. More…

We study when a union of saturated models is saturated in the framework of tame abstract elementary classes (AECs) with amalgamation. We prove: $\mathbf{Theorem}$ If $K$ is a tame AEC with amalgamation satisfying a natural definition of…

We prove that if there is an elementary embedding from the universe to itself, then there is a proper class of measurable successor cardinals.

Let K be an abstract elementary class of models. Assume that there are less than the maximal number of models in K_{\lambda^{+n}} (namely models in K of power \lambda^{+n}) for all n. We provide conditions on K_\lambda, that imply the…

We show that in a weak globular $\omega$-category, all composition operations are equivalent and commutative for cells with sufficiently degenerate boundary, which can be considered a higher-dimensional generalisation of the Eckmann-Hilton…

We prove that the problem of deciding the consequence relation of the full Lambek calculus with weakening is complete for the class HAck of hyper-Ackermannian problems (i.e., level F_{\omega}^{\omega} of the ordinal-indexed hierarchy of…

We prove that every abstract elementary class (a.e.c.) with LST number $\kappa$ and vocabulary $\tau$ of cardinality $\leq \kappa$ can be axiomatized in the logic ${\mathbb L}_{\beth_2(\kappa)^{+++},\kappa^+}(\tau)$. In this logic an a.e.c.…

We show that a number of results on abstract elementary classes (AECs) hold in accessible categories with concrete directed colimits. In particular, we prove a generalization of a recent result of Boney on tameness under a large cardinal…

We study the problem of extending an abstract independence notion for types of singletons (what Shelah calls a good frame) to longer types. Working in the framework of tame abstract elementary classes, we show that good frames can always be…

We exhibit an equivalence between the model-theoretic framework of universal classes and the category-theoretic framework of locally multipresentable categories. We similarly give an equivalence between abstract elementary classes (AECs)…

If cf(kappa) = kappa, kappa^+< cf(lambda) = \lambda, then there is a stationary subset S of {delta<lambda:cf(delta)=kappa} in I[lambda]. Moreover, we can find <C_delta :delta in S>, C_delta a club of lambda, otp(C_delta)=kappa, guessing…

Suppose L is a relational language and P in L is a unary predicate. If M is an L-structure then P(M) is the L-structure formed as the substructure of M with domain {a: M models P(a)}. Now suppose T is a complete first order theory in L with…
