Ultrahomogeneity and $\omega$-categoricity are two central concepts arising from model theory, with strong connections with oligomorphic permutation groups and quantifier elimination. In particular, both are conditions on the automorphism…
We define the projective stable category of a coherent scheme. It is the homotopy category of an abelian model structure on the category of unbounded chain complexes of quasi-coherent sheaves. We study the cofibrant objects of this model…
I discuss a family of statistical-mechanics models in which (some classes of) elements of a finite group $G$ occupy the (directed) edges of a lattice; the product around any plaquette is constrained to be the group identity $e$. Such a…
The well known stability conjecture of Palis and Smale states that if a diffeomorphism is structurally stable then the chain recurrent set is hyperbolic. It is natural to ask if this type of results is true for an individual chain class,…
We give a model-theoretic characterization of the class of geometric theories classified by an atomic topos having enough points; in particular, we show that every complete geometric theory classified by an atomic topos is countably…
An $\omega_1$-compact space is a space in which every closed discrete subspace is countable. We give various general conditions under which a locally compact, $\omega_1$-compact space is $\sigma$-countably compact, i.e., the union of…
We prove that for any superatomic Boolean Algebra of cardinality >beth_omega there is an automorphism moving uncountably many atoms. Similarly for larger cardinals. Any of those results are essentially best possible.
Any Littlestone class, or stable graph, has finite sets which function as ``virtual elements'': these can be seen from the learning side as representing hypotheses which are expressible as weighted majority opinions of hypotheses in the…
For anisotropic attenuating media, the albedo operator determines the scattering and the attenuation coefficients up to a gauge transformation. We show that such a determination is stable.
We prove that every \omega-categorical, generically stable group is nilpotent-by-finite and that every \omega-categorical, generically stable ring is nilpotent-by-finite.
We prove a new localization theorem for stable model categories if the localizing subcategory is generated by a precovering class in the model category. We use this to show how one may explicitly realize certain Bousfield localization…
We analyze the stability under time evolution of complexifier coherent states (CCS) in one-dimensional mechanical systems. A system of coherent states is called stable if it evolves into another coherent state. It turns out that a system…
Let $T$ be a complete, superstable theory with fewer than $2^{\aleph_{0}}$ countable models. Assuming that generic types of infinite, simple groups definable in $T^{eq}$ are sufficiently non-isolated we prove that $\omega^{\omega}$ is the…
This article deals with the quotient category of the category of coherent sheaves on an irreducible smooth projective variety by the full subcategory of sheaves supported in codimension greater than c. It turns out that this category has…
We introduce and study some general principles and hierarchical properties of expansions and restrictions of structures and their theories The general approach is applied to describe these properties for classes of $\omega$-categorical…
We characterize stability of graph C*-algebras by giving five conditions equivalent to their stability. We also show that if G is a graph with no sources, then C*(G) is stable if and only if each vertex in G can be reached by an infinite…
In this short note we prove that a definable set $X$ over $\mathbb F_n$ is superstable only if $X(\mathbb F_n)=X(\mathbb F_{\omega})$.
Given two baric algebras $(A_1,\omega_1)$ and $(A_2,\omega_2)$ we describe a way to define a new baric algebra structure over the vector space $A_1\oplus A_2$, which we shall denote $(A_1\bowtie A_2,\omega_1\bowtie\omega_2)$. We present…
This paper is concerned with extensions of geometric stability theory to some nonelementary classes. We prove the following theorem: Theorem: Let C be a large homogeneous model of a stable diagram D. Let p, q in S_D(A), where p is…
We observe that there is an example of an automorphism group of a model of an omega-stable theory---in fact, the prime model of an uncountably-categorical theory---that is not locally (OB), answering a question of C. Rosendal.
