Abstract: We reformulate Hrushovski's definability patterns from the setting of first order logic to the setting of positive logic. Given an h-universal theory T we put two structures on the type spaces of models of T in two languages, mathcal{L} and mathcal{L}_{pi}. It turns out that for sufficiently saturated models, the corresponding h-universal theories mathcal{T} and mathcal{T}_{pi} are independent of the model. We show that there is a canonical model mathcal{J} of mathcal{T}, and in many interesting cases there is an analogous canonical model mathcal{J}_{pi} of mathcal{T}_{pi}, both of which embed into every type space. We discuss the properties of these canonical models, called cores, and give some concrete examples.
