  1. On PAC and Bounded Substructures of a Stable Structure.Anand Pillay & Dominika Polkowska - 2006 - Journal of Symbolic Logic 71 (2):460 - 472.
    We introduce and study the notions of a PAC-substructure of a stable structure, and a bounded substructure of an arbitrary substructure, generalizing [10]. We give precise definitions and equivalences, saying what it means for properties such as PAC to be first order, study some examples (such as differentially closed fields) in detail, relate the material to generic automorphisms, and generalize a "descent theorem" for pseudo-algebraically closed fields to the stable context. We also point out that the elementary invariants of pseudo-algebraically (...)

  • Existentially closed fields with finite group actions.Daniel M. Hoffmann & Piotr Kowalski - 2018 - Journal of Mathematical Logic 18 (1):1850003.
    We study algebraic and model-theoretic properties of existentially closed fields with an action of a fixed finite group. Such fields turn out to be pseudo-algebraically closed in a rather strong sense. We place this work in a more general context of the model theory of fields with a group scheme action.

  • (1 other version)The model theory of differential fields with finitely many commuting derivations.Tracey McGrail - 2000 - Journal of Symbolic Logic 65 (2):885-913.
    In this paper we set out the basic model theory of differential fields of characteristic 0, which have finitely many commuting derivations. We give axioms for the theory of differentially closed differential fields with m derivations and show that this theory is ω-stable, model complete, and quantifier-eliminable, and that it admits elimination of imaginaries. We give a characterization of forking and compute the rank of this theory to be ω m + 1.

  • Generic structures and simple theories.Z. Chatzidakis & A. Pillay - 1998 - Annals of Pure and Applied Logic 95 (1-3):71-92.
    We study structures equipped with generic predicates and/or automorphisms, and show that in many cases we obtain simple theories. We also show that a bounded PAC field is simple. 1998 Published by Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

  • Elementary equivalence theorem for Pac structures.Jan Dobrowolski, Daniel Max Hoffmann & Junguk Lee - 2020 - Journal of Symbolic Logic 85 (4):1467-1498.
    We generalize a well-known theorem binding the elementary equivalence relation on the level of PAC fields and the isomorphism type of their absolute Galois groups. Our results concern two cases: saturated PAC structures and nonsaturated PAC structures.

  • The definable multiplicity property and generic automorphisms.Hirotaka Kikyo & Anand Pillay - 2000 - Annals of Pure and Applied Logic 106 (1-3):263-273.
    Let T be a strongly minimal theory with quantifier elimination. We show that the class of existentially closed models of T{“σ is an automorphism”} is an elementary class if and only if T has the definable multiplicity property, as long as T is a finite cover of a strongly minimal theory which does have the definable multiplicity property. We obtain cleaner results working with several automorphisms, and prove: the class of existentially closed models of T{“σi is an automorphism”: i=1,2} is (...)
