Uncountable categoricity of local abstract elementary classes with amalgamation
نویسندگان
چکیده
We give a complete and elementary proof of the following upward categoricity theorem: LetK be a local abstract elementary class with amalgamation and joint embedding, arbitrarily large models, and countable LöwenheimSkolem number. If K is categorical in א1 then K is categorical in every uncountable cardinal. In particular, this provides a new proof of the upward part of Morley’s theorem in first order logic without any use of prime models or heavy stability theoretic machinery (dependence relations, Morley rank, etc.).

Shelah's categoricity conjecture from a successor for tame abstract elementary classes
We prove a categoricity transfer theorem for tame abstract elementary classes. Theorem 0.1. Suppose that K is a χ-tame abstract elementary class and satisfies the amalgamation and joint embedding properties and has arbitrarily large models. Let λ ≥ Max{χ,LS(K)}. If K is categorical in λ and λ, then K is categorical in λ. Combining this theorem with some results from [Sh 394], we derive a form o...

متن کاملCategoricity in Abstract Elementary Classes with No Maximal Models
The results in this paper are in a context of abstract elementary classes identified by Shelah and Villaveces in which the amalgamation property is not assumed. The long-term goal is to solve Shelah’s Categoricity Conjecture in this context. Here we tackle a problem of Shelah and Villaveces by proving that in their context, the uniqueness of limit models follows from categoricity under the assu...

متن کاملLimit Models in Classes with Amalgamation
In abstract elementary classes limit models are sometimes the appropriate substitute for saturated models. For Galois-stable abstract elementary classes which satisfy the amalgamation property, we prove under the assumption that there is a mildly behaved dependence relation, that for any model M , any two limit models over M of the same cardinality are isomorphic. This is useful in dealing with...
