We provide a partial answer to a question asked independently by Kim and d'Elb\'ee and show that, under the assumption of the stable Kim-forking conjecture, every $\mathrm{NSOP}_1$ rosy theory must be simple. We also prove that the theory…

We study the generic theory of algebraically closed fields of fixed positive characteristic with a predicate for an additive subgroup, called $\mathrm{ACFG}$. This theory was introduced recently as a new example of $\mathrm{NSOP}_1$ non…

We develop the theory of generically stable types, independence relation based on nonforking and stable weight in the context of dependent (NIP) theories.

We show that Kim-forking satisfies existence in all NSOP$_1$ theories.

This course introduces the fruitful links between model theory and a combinatoric of sets given by independence relations. An independence relation on a set is a ternary relation between subsets. Chapter 1 should be considered as an…

Forking is a central notion of model theory, generalizing linear independence in vector spaces and algebraic independence in fields. We develop the theory of forking in abstract, category-theoretic terms, for reasons both practical (we…

We develop a new notion of independence suggested by Scanlon (th-independence). We prove that in a large class of theories (which includes all simple theories) this notion has many of the properties needed for an adequate geometric…

We show that approximations of strict order can calibrate the fine structure of genericity. Particularly, we find exponential behavior within the $\mathrm{NSOP}_{n}$ hierarchy from model theory. Let $0$-$\eth$-independence denote…

We introduce some properties describing dependence in indiscernible sequences: $F_{ind}$ and its dual $F_{Mb}$, the definable Morley property, and $n$-resolvability. Applying these properties, we establish the following results: We show…

We give four different independence relations on any exponential field. Each is a canonical independence relation on a suitable Abstract Elementary Class of exponential fields, showing that two of these are NSOP$_1$-like and non-simple, a…

We introduce a family of local ranks DQ depending on a finite set Q of pairs of the form (\varphi(x,y),q(y)) where \varphi(x,y) is a formula and q(y) is a global type. We prove that in any NSOP1 theory these ranks satisfy some desirable…

We introduce the notion of dependence, as a property of a Keisler measure, and generalize several results of [HPS13] on generically stable measures (in $NIP$ theories) to arbitrary theories. Among other things, we show that this notion is…

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…

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 develop some model theory of multi-linear forms, generalizing Granger in the bi-linear case. In particular, after proving a quantifier elimination result, we show that for an NIP field K, the theory of infinite dimensional non-degenerate…

We establish several results regarding dividing and forking in NTP2 theories. We show that dividing is the same as array-dividing. Combining it with existence of strictly invariant sequences we deduce that forking satisfies the chain…

We try to understand complete types over a somewhat saturated model of a complete first order theory which is dependent (previously called NIP), by "decomposition theorems for such types". Our thesis is that the picture of dependent theory…

We study the theory $T_{m,n}$ of existentially closed incidence structures omitting the complete incidence structure $K_{m,n}$, which can also be viewed as existentially closed $K_{m,n}$-free bipartite graphs. In the case $m = n = 2$, this…

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.

In the classification of complete first-order theories, many dividing lines have been defined in order to understand the complexity and the behavior of some classes of theories. In this paper, using the concept of patterns of consistency…
