265. Artem Chernikov and Pierre Simon Externally definable sets and dependent pairs E-mail: Submission date: 27 July 2010. Abstract: We prove that externally definable sets in first order NIP theories have honest definitions, giving a new proof of Shelah's expansion theorem. Also we discuss a weak notion of stable embeddedness true in this context. Those results are then used to prove a general theorem on dependent pairs, which in particular answers a question of Baldwin and Benedikt on naming an indiscernible sequence. Mathematics Subject Classification: 03Cxx Keywords and phrases: NIP, dependent theories, pairs, indiscernible sequences, externally definable sets. |
