چکیده

This paper is a continuation of [8]. Let A and B be two first order structures of the same vocabulary L. We denote the domains of A and B by A and B respectively. All vocabularies are assumed to be relational. The Ehrenfeucht-Fräıssé-game of length γ of A and B denoted by EFGγ(A,B) is defined as follows: There are two players called ∀ and ∃. First ∀ plays x0 and then ∃ plays y0. After this ∀ plays x1, and ∃ plays y1, and so on. If 〈(xβ, yβ) : β < α〉 has been played and α < γ, then ∀ plays xα after which ∃ plays yα. Eventually a sequence 〈(xβ, yβ) : β < γ〉 has been played. The rules of the game say that both players have to play elements of A ∪ B. Moreover, if ∀ plays his xβ in A (B), then ∃ has to play his yβ in B (A). Thus the sequence 〈(xβ, yβ) : β < γ〉 determines a relation π ⊆ A×B. Player ∃ wins this round of the game if π is a partial isomorphism. Otherwise ∀

Almost free groups and Ehrenfeucht-Fraïssé games for successors of singular cardinals

We strengthen non-structure theorems for almost free Abelian groups by studying long Ehrenfeucht-Fräıssé games between a fixed group of cardinality λ and a free Abelian group. A group is called 2-game-free if the isomorphism player has a winning strategy in the game (of the described form) of length 2 ∈ λ. We prove for a large set of successor cardinals λ = μ the existence of nonfree (μ · ω1)-g...

Positional Strategies in Long Ehrenfeucht-FraïSSé Games

We prove that it is relatively consistent with ZF + CH that there exist two models of cardinality א2 such that the second player has a winning strategy in the Ehrenfeucht-Fräıssé-game of length ω1 but there is no σ-closed back-and-forth set for the two models. If CH fails, no such pairs of models exist.

Some model-theoretic remarks on structural Ramsey theory

We present one novel result and two novel proofs of previously known results in structural Ramsey theory. Regarding the former, we give a new characterization of the Ramsey property for a Fraïssé class in terms colorings of induced substructures of its generic model (or Fraïssé limit). This result is obtained as a corollary of a more general theorem in which we show that under relatively mild h...

Remarks on almost-sure theories of Fraïssé classes

In addition to demonstrations that certain concrete classes have 0,1-laws, there are a few general sufficient conditions now known guaranteeing that an א0-categorical theory is the almost-sure theory of some Fraïssé class – for example [3] and [16]. In this paper, we work on the converse project: determining what almost-sure theories must be like. We prove two theorems within this project. In t...
