Cellular generation revisited

Sean Cox, Mark Kamsma, Jiří Rosický

Cellular generation, which generalises cofibrant generation, is an important categorical smallness condition on a class of morphisms. A general challenge is to determine whether a…

Positive Logic: An Introduction for Model Theorists

Mark Kamsma

Positive logic is a generalisation of full first-order logic that does not have negation built in. Still, many model-theoretic ideas, tools and techniques work perfectly fine in po…

Cofibrant generation of pure monomorphisms in presheaf categories

Sean Cox, Jonathan Feigert, Mark Kamsma +2

We characterise when the pure monomorphisms in a presheaf category are cofibrantly generated in terms of the category . In particular, when…

Lifting independence along functors

Mark Kamsma, Jiří Rosický

Given a functor and a model-theoretic independence relation on , we can lift that independence relation along to by…

Existentially closed models and locally zero-dimensional toposes

Mark Kamsma, Joshua Wrigley

The notion of an existentially closed model is generalised to a property of geometric morphisms between toposes. We show that important properties of existentially closed models ex…

Corrigendum to "Kim-independence in positive logic"

Jan Dobrowolski, Mark Kamsma

The proof of the Independence Theorem for Kim-independence in positive thick NSOP theories from (Dobrowolski and Kamsma, 2022) contains a gap. The theorem is still true, and in…
