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…
This paper provides a full characterization for when the expansion of a complete o-minimal theory by a unary predicate that picks out a divisible dense and codense subgroup has a model companion. This result is motivated by criteria and…
The theory of fields that are equipped with a countably infinite family of commuting derivations is not companionable; but if the axiom is added whereby the characteristic of the fields is zero, then the resulting theory is companionable.…
Let K be an algebraically bounded structure and T be its theory. If T is model complete, then the theory of K endowed with a derivation, denoted by $T^{\delta}$, has a model completion. Additionally, we prove that if the theory T is…
In this paper we explore the representation property over sets. This property generalizes constructibility, however is weak enough to enable us to prove that the class of theories $T$ whose models are representable is exactly the class of…
A first-order theory $T$ is a model-complete core theory if every first-order formula is equivalent modulo $T$ to an existential positive formula; the core companion of a theory $T$ is a model-complete core theory $S$ such that every model…
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…
We prove that the NTP$_1$ property of a geometric theory $T$ is inherited by theories of lovely pairs and $H$-structures associated to $T$. We also provide a class of examples of nonsimple geometric NTP$_1$ theories.
The paper deals with two issues: the existence of universal models of a theory T and related properties when cardinal arithmetic does not give this existence offhand. In the first section we prove that simple theories (e.g., theories…
We prove that in a countable theory T fully stable over a predicate P, any complete set A has the existence property. This means that A can be extended to a model of T without changing the P-part. In particular, T has the Gaifman property:…
For every natural number $m$, the existentially closed models of the theory of fields with $m$ commuting derivations can be given a first-order geometric characterization in several ways. In particular, the theory of these differential…
We study a class of tame $\mathcal{L}$-theories $T$ of topological fields and their $\mathcal{L}_\delta$-extension $T_{\delta}^*$ by a generic derivation $\delta$. The topological fields under consideration include henselian valued fields…
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…
Let T be an algebraically bounded theory. We consider the $L(\bar\delta)$-expansions of T by a tuple $\bar \delta$ of derivations (which may be commuting or not). We investigate the model completion of either of the above theories, whose…
Many modern learning tasks require models that can take inputs of varying sizes. Consequently, dimension-independent architectures have been proposed for domains where the inputs are graphs, sets, and point clouds. Recent work on graph…
We introduce the notion of first order amenability, as a property of a first order theory $T$: every complete type over $\emptyset$, in possibly infinitely many variables, extends to an automorphism-invariant global Keisler measure in the…
We study one way in which stable phenomena can exist in an NIP theory. We start by defining a notion of 'pure instability' that we call 'distality' in which no such phenomenon occurs. O-minimal theories and the p-adics for example are…
This paper builds model-theoretic tools to detect changes in complexity among the simple theories. We develop a generalization of dividing, called shearing, which depends on a so-called context c. This leads to defining c-superstability, a…
We initiate a systematic study of \emph{generic stability independence} and introduce the class of \emph{treeless theories} in which this notion of independence is particularly well-behaved. We show that the class of treeless theories…
The change of variable theorem is proved under the sole hypothesis of differentiability of the transformation. Specifically, it is shown under this hypothesis that the transformed integral equals the given one over every measurable subset…
