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…
The randomization of a complete first order theory $T$ is the complete continuous theory $T^R$ with two sorts, a sort for random elements of models of $T$, and a sort for events in an underlying atomless probability space. We study…
Let $1 < p < \infty$, $p\neq 2$. We prove that if $d\geq d_p$ is sufficiently large, and $A\subs\R^d$ is a measurable set of positive upper density then there exists $\la_0=\la_0(A)$ such for all $\la\geq\la_0$ there are $x,y\in\R^d$ such…
Let T be a countable, small simple theory. In this paper, we prove for such T, the notion of Lascar Strong type coincides with the notion of a strong type,over an arbitrary set.
We give a detailed and self-contained introduction to the theory of $\lambda $-toposes and prove the following: 1) A $\lambda $-separable $\lambda $-topos has enough $\lambda $-points. 2) The classifying $\lambda $-topos of a $\kappa $-site…
A condition, in two variants, is given such that if a property P satisfies this condition, then every logic which is at least as strong as first-order logic and can express P fails to have the compactness property. The result is used to…
This paper deals with strong invariance principles (known also as strong approximation theorems) for sums of the form $\sum_{n=1}^{[Nt]}F\big(X(n),X(2n),...,X(kn), X(q_{k+1}(n)),X(q_{k+2}(n)),..., X(q_\ell(n))\big)$
For a theory $T$ in $L, T_\sigma$ is the theory of the models of $T$ with an automorphism $\sigma$. If $T$ is an unstable model complete theory without the independence property, then $T_\sigma$ has no model companion. If $T$ is an unstable…
We consider the space $A(\mathbb{T}^d)$ of absolutely convergent Fourier series on the torus $\mathbb{T}^d$. The norm on $A(\mathbb{T}^d)$ is naturally defined by $\|f\|_{A}=\|\widehat{f}\|_{l^1}$, where $\widehat{f}$ is the Fourier…
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.
SAT is not in P, is true and provable in a simply consistent extension B' of a first order theory B of computing, with a single finite axiom characterizing a universal Turing machine. Therefore, P is not equal to NP, is true and provable in…
We develop the theory of generically stable types, independence relation based on nonforking and stable weight in the context of dependent (NIP) theories.
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 the following conjecture of Leighton and Moitra. Let $T$ be a tournament on $[n]$ and $S_n$ the set of permutations of $[n]$. For an arc $uv$ of $T$, let $A_{uv}=\{\sigma \in S_n \, : \, \sigma(u)<\sigma(v) \}$. $\textbf{Theorem.}$…
For every natural $n>1$, there is an operator $T$ of dynamical origin such that its tensor power $T^{\otimes n}$ has singular spectrum, and $T^{\otimes (n+1)}$ has absolutely continuous one. For a set $D$ of positive measure there are…
In NIP theories, generically stable Keisler measures can be characterized in several ways. We analyze these various forms of "generic stability" in arbitrary theories. Among other things, we show that the standard definition of generic…
It is known that if X is uniformly distributed modulo 1 and Y is an arbitrary random variable independent of X then Y+X is also uniformly distributed modulo 1. We prove a converse for any continuous random variable Y (or a reasonable…
We ask the following question: If all instantiations of a propositional formula $A(x_1,...,x_n)$ in $n$ propositional variables are decidable in some sufficiently strong recursive theory, does it follow that $A$ is tautological or…
We prove that for any monotone class of finite relational structures, the first-order theory of the class is NIP in the sense of stability theory if, and only if, the collection of Gaifman graphs of structures in this class is nowhere…
Quantum field theories with quenched disorder are so hard to study that even exactly solvable free theories present puzzling aspects. We consider a free scalar field $\phi$ in $d$ dimensions coupled to a random source $h$ with quenched…
