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…

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…

Positive indiscernibles

Mark Kamsma

We generalise various theorems for finding indiscernible trees and arrays to positive logic: based on an existing modelling theorem for s-trees, we prove modelling theorems for str…

Dividing Lines between Positive Theories

Anna Dmitrieva, Francesco Gallinaro, Mark Kamsma

We give definitions of the properties OP, IP, -TP, TP, -TP, SOP, SOP and SOP in positive logic, and prove various implications and equivalences between th…

Independence relations for exponential fields

Vahagn Aslanyan, Robert Henderson, Mark Kamsma +1

We give four different independence relations on any exponential field. Each is a canonical independence relation on a suitable Abstract Elementary Class of exponential fields, sho…

Bilinear spaces over a fixed field are simple unstable

Mark Kamsma

We study the model theory of vector spaces with a bilinear form over a fixed field. For finite fields this can be, and has been, done in the classical framework of full first-order…

NSOP-like independence in AECats

Mark Kamsma

The classes stable, simple and NSOP in the stability hierarchy for first-order theories can be characterised by the existence of a certain independence relation. For each of th…

Kim-independence in positive logic

Jan Dobrowolski, Mark Kamsma

An important dividing line in the class of unstable theories is being NSOP, which is more general than being simple. In NSOP theories forking independence may not be as wel…

Type space functors and interpretations in positive logic

Mark Kamsma

We construct a 2-equivalence . Here is the 2-category of positive theories and $\mathfrak{Typ…

The Kim-Pillay theorem for Abstract Elementary Categories

Mark Kamsma

We introduce the framework of AECats (abstract elementary categories), generalising both the category of models of some first-order theory and the category of subsets of models. An…
