The assumption that an AEC is tame is a powerful assumption permitting development of stability theory for AECs with the amalgamation property. Lately several upward categoricity theorems were discovered where tameness replaces strong…

By providing a procedure to apply Hrushovski's amalgamation method to the setting of classes of infinite structures, we introduce the notion of \textit{paracollapsed} structures. We show that this approach provides existentially closed…

We prove that for a stable theory $T,$ if $M$ is a saturated model of $T$ of cardinality $\lambda$ where $\lambda > \big|T\big|,$ then $Aut(M)$ has a dense free subgroup on $2^{\lambda}$ generators. This affirms a conjecture of Hodges.

Building on the work of \.{I}nan and of Almahariq--Peters--Vergili, we develop an axiomatic framework for approximate algebra based on an algebra-compatible closure operator $\Phi^{\!*}$ on a unital ring. The operator is assumed to be…

In this paper we study stable finiteness of ample groupoid algebras with applications to inverse semigroup algebras and Leavitt path algebras, recovering old results and proving some new ones. In addition, we develop a theory of (faithful)…

We characterize stable T for which the model completion of T_{aut} is stable (i.e., every completion is). Then we prove that ``some completion is stable'' is different and we characterize it. Finally we show that if T is stable, T_{aut} has…

This paper continues the study of generalized amalgamation properties. Part of the paper provides a finer analysis of the groupoids that arise from failure of 3-uniqueness in a stable theory. We show that such groupoids must be abelian and…

Given a structure $\mathcal{M}$ and a stably embedded $\emptyset$-definable set $Q$, we prove tameness preservation results when enriching the induced structure on $Q$ by some further structure $\mathcal{Q}$. In particular, we show that if…

We prove that unital graph C*-algebras often admit a convenient decomposition into amalgamated free products. We use this to give a complete characterization of when a unital graph C*-algebra is residually finite-dimensional and when it is…

We investigate the set of maximally mixed states of a C*-algebra, extending previous work by Alberti on von Neumann algebras. We show that, unlike for von Neumann algebras, the set of maximally mixed states of a C*-algebra may fail to be…
