Dependence and isolated extensions

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: In this paper, we show that phi is a dependent formula if and only if all phi-types have an extension to a phi-isolated phi-type that is an "elementary phi-extension" (see Definition 2.3 in the paper). Moreover, we show that the domain of this extension adds at most 2 times the independence dimension of phi new elements to the domain of the original phi-type. We give corollaries to this theorem and discuss parallels to the stable setting.
