Model-theoretic aspects of the Gurarij operator system

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: We establish some of the basic model theoretic facts about the Gurarij operator system mathbbGS recently constructed by the second-named author. In particular, we show: (1) mathbbGS is the unique separable 1-exact existentially closed operator system; (2) mathbbGS is the unique separable nuclear model of its theory; (3) every embedding of mathbbGS into its ultrapower is elementary; (4) mathbbGS is the prime model of its theory; and (5) mathbbGS does not have quantifier-elimination, whence the theory of operator systems does not have a model companion. We also show that, for any qinmathbbN, the theories of Mq-spaces and Mq-systems do have a model companion, namely the Fra"{i}ss'{e} limit of the class of finite-dimensional Mq-spaces and Mq-systems respectively; moreover we show that the model companion is separably categorical. We conclude the paper by showing that no C algebra can be existentially closed as an operator system.
