Trace definability II: model-theoretic linearity

逻辑 2026-05-13 v1

摘要

We give examples of NIP\mathrm{NIP} structures in which new algebraic structure appears in the Shelah completion. In particular we construct a weakly o-minimal structure M\mathscr{M} such that M\mathscr{M} does not interpret an infinite group but the Shelah completion of M\mathscr{M} interprets an infinite field. We introduce a weak notion of interpretability called local trace definability between first order structures and an associated weak notion of equivalence. We give a dichotomy between ``linearity" and ``field structure" for dp-minimal expansions of archimedean ordered abelian groups. We also prove several other results about trace definability and local trace definability between various classes of structures.
