Dependent T and existence of limit modelsS. Shelah
Does the class of linear orders have (one of the variants of) the so
called
(λ,κ)-limit model? It is necessarily unique, and
naturally assuming some instances of G.C.H. we get some positive
results. More generally, letting T be a complete first order
theory and for simplicity assume G.C.H., for
regular λ > κ > |T| does T have
(variants of) a (λ,κ)-limit models, except for stable
T? For some, yes, the theory of dense linear order, for some, no.
Moreover, for independent T we get negative results. We deal more
with linear orders.
