A dependent theory is a (first order complete theory) T which does not have the independence property. A main result here is: if we expand a model of T by the traces on it of sets definable in a bigger model then we preserve its being…
Let $T$ be a (first order complete) dependent theory, ${\mathfrak{C}}$ a $\bar\kappa$-saturated model of $T$ and $G$ a definable subgroup which is abelian. Among subgroups of bounded index which are the union of $<\bar\kappa$ type definable…
We begin a systematic development of structure theory for a first order theory, which is stable over a monadic predicate. We show that stability over a predicate implies quantifier free definability of types over stable sets, introduce an…
We continue investigating the structure of externally definable sets in NIP theories and preservation of NIP after expanding by new predicates. Most importantly: types over finite sets are uniformly definable; over a model, a family of…
This note concerns bounded derivations on maximal triangular operator algebras on a Hilbert space. Given any bounded derivation $\delta$ on a maximal triangular algebra whose invariant lattice is continuous at 1, an operator which is shown…
Consider the expansion $T_S$ of a theory $T$ by a predicate for a submodel of a reduct $T_0$ of $T$. We present a setup in which this expansion admits a model companion $TS$. We show that the nice features of the theory $T$ transfer to…
We note a parallel between some ideas of stable model theory and certain topics in finite combinatorics related to the sum-product phenomenon. For a simple linear group G, we show that a finite subset X with |X X \^{-1} X |/ |X| bounded is…
We prove that if K is an infinite stable field whose generic type has weight 1 then K is separably closed. We also obtain partial results when the generic of K has finite weight and when K is strongly stable.
We give several characterizations of when a complete first-order theory $T$ is monadically NIP, i.e. when expansions of $T$ by arbitrary unary predicates do not have the independence property. The central characterization is a condition on…
We introduce the notions of a mutually algebraic structures and theories and prove many equivalents. A theory $T$ is mutually algebraic if and only if it is weakly minimal and trivial if and only if no model $M$ of $T$ has an expansion…
It is proved that the derivation algebra of a centerless perfect Lie algebra of arbitrary dimension over any field of arbitrary characteristic is complete and that the holomorph of a centerless perfect Lie algebra is complete if and only if…
We extend the notion of Heyting algebra to a notion of truth values algebra and prove that a theory is consistent if and only if it has a B-valued model for some non trivial truth values algebra B. A theory that has a B-valued model for all…
In this paper, we present some basic properties concerning the derivation algebra ${\rm Der}(T)$, the quasiderivation algebra ${\rm QDer}(T)$ and the generalized derivation algebra ${\rm GDer}(T)$ of a Lie triple system $T$, with the…
We study a variant of algebraic K-theory and prove that it is stable and preserves module structures.
For every algebraically closed field $\boldsymbol k$ of characteristic different from $2$, we prove the following: (1) Generic finite dimensional (not necessarily associative) $\boldsymbol k$-algebras of a fixed dimension, considered up to…
We prove that some natural "outside" property is equivalent (for a first order class) to being stable. For a model, being resplendent is a strengthening of being kappa-saturated. Restricting ourselves to the case kappa > |T| for…
We present a new proof of descent for stably dominated types in any theory, dropping the hypothesis of the existence of global invariant extensions. Additionally, we give a much simpler proof of descent for stably dominated types in…
We study definable topological dynamics of some algebraic group actions over an arbitrary NIP field $K$. We show that the Ellis group of the universal definable flow of $\mathrm{SL}_2(K)$ is non-trivial if the multiplicative group of $K$ is…
We establish a correspondence between automorphisms and derivations on certain algebras of generalised power series. In particular, we describe a Lie algebra of derivations on a field $k(\!(G)\!)$ of generalised power series, exploiting our…
We observe that a simple condition suffices to describes non-forking independence over models in a stable theory. Under mild assumptions, this description can be extended to non-forking independence over algebraically closed subsets,…
