In mathematical logic, model theory is the study of the relationship between formal theories (a collection of sentences in a formal language expressing statements about a mathematical structure), and their models (those structures in which the statements of the theory hold). [1]
Let M be a structure in a first-order language L.An extended language L(M) is obtained by adding to L a constant symbol c a for every element a of M.The structure M can be viewed as an L(M) structure in which the symbols in L are interpreted as before, and each new constant c a is interpreted as the element a.
Model theory is the study of the relationship between formal theories (a collection of sentences in a formal language expressing statements about a mathematical structure), and their models (those structures in which the statements of the theory hold). The aspects investigated include the number and size of models of a theory, the relationship ...
In model theory and related areas of mathematics, a type is an object that describes how a (real or possible) element or finite collection of elements in a mathematical structure might behave. More precisely, it is a set of first-order formulas in a language L with free variables x 1 , x 2 ,..., x n that are true of a set of n -tuples of an L ...
In model theory, the case of being algebraically closed and its prime field is especially important. While vector spaces are modular and affine spaces are "almost" modular (i.e. everywhere locally modular), algebraically closed fields are examples of the other extremity, not being even locally modular (i.e. none of the localizations is modular).
The "passivity" agreement FDIC wants BlackRock to sign is designed to assure bank regulators that the giant money manager will remain a "passive" owner of an FDIC-supervised bank and won’t exert ...
