An important dividing line in the class of unstable theories is being NSOP$_1$, which is more general than being simple. In NSOP$_1$ theories forking independence may not be as well-behaved as in stable or simple theories, so it is replaced…
We study Kim-independence over arbitrary sets. Assuming that forking satisfies existence, we establish Kim's lemma for Kim-dividing over arbitrary sets in an NSOP$_{1}$ theory. We deduce symmetry of Kim-independence and the independence…
We study NSOP$_{1}$ theories. We define Kim-independence, which generalizes non-forking independence in simple theories and corresponds to non-forking at a generic scale. We show that Kim-independence satisfies a version of Kim's lemma,…
We adapt the properties of Kim-independence in NSOP1 theories with existence proven in [5],[4] and [2] by Ramsey, Kaplan, Chernikov, Dobrowolski and Kim to hyperimaginaries by adding the assumption of existence for hyperimaginaries. We show…
We prove several results on the behavior of Kim-independence upon changing the base in NSOP$_{1}$ theories. As a consequence, we prove that Kim-independence satisfies transitivity and that this characterizes NSOP$_{1}$. Moreover, we…
We develop the theory of Kim-independence in the context of NSOP$_{1}$ theories satsifying the existence axiom. We show that, in such theories, Kim-independence is transitive and that $\ind^{K}$-Morley sequences witness Kim-dividing. As…
Kim's Lemma is a key ingredient in the theory of forking independence in simple theories. It asserts that if a formula divides, then it divides along every Morley sequence in type of the parameters. Variants of Kim's Lemma have formed the…
We give definitions of the properties OP, IP, $k$-TP, TP$_1$, $k$-TP$_2$, SOP$_1$, SOP$_2$ and SOP$_3$ in positive logic, and prove various implications and equivalences between them. We also provide a characterisation of stability in…
We show that NSOP$_{1}$ theories are exactly the theories in which Kim-independence satisfies a form of local character. In particular, we show that if $T$ is NSOP$_{1}$, $M\models T$, and $p$ is a type over $M$, then the collection of…
In the first part of this work the notion of stable Kim-forking is discussed and some context on this matter is given. In the second part a general way of building some examples of NSOP1 theories as the limit of some Fraisse class…
In this paper, we axiomatize the negatable consequences in dependence and independence logic by extending the systems of natural deduction of the logics given in (Kontinen and Vaananen 2013) and (Hannula 2015). We prove a characterization…
It has been widely acknowledged that probabilistic independence and logical independence cannot be coherently reconciled. By bridging these two notions, this paper addresses three long-standing problems that have puzzled the field of…
We develop a framework, in the style of Adler, for interpreting the notion of "witnessing" that has appeared (usually as a variant of Kim's Lemma) in different areas of neostability theory as a binary relation between abstract independence…
We study expansions of NSOP$_1$ theories that preserve NSOP$_1$. We prove that if $T$ is a model complete NSOP$_1$ theory eliminating the quantifier $\exists^{\infty}$, then the generic expansion of $T$ by arbitrary constant, function, and…
We initiate the study of a generalization of Kim-independence, Conant-independence, based on the "strong Kim-dividing" of Kaplan, Ramsey and Shelah. We introduce an axiom on stationary independence relations essentially generalizing the…
We show that Kim-forking satisfies existence in all NSOP$_1$ theories.
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…
Answering a question of Dobrowolski, Kim and Ramsey, we find an $\mathrm{NSOP}_{1}$ theory that does not satisfy the existence axiom.
The ancillary file Corrigendum.pdf contains an explanation why our proof does not work.
We give an overview of some developments in dependence and independence logic. This is a tiny selection, intended for a newcomer, from a rapidly growing literature on the topic. Furthermore, we discuss conditional independence atoms and we…
