Synopsis
Model theory is a branch of mathematical logic where we study mathem- ical structures by considering the ?rst-order sentences true in those str- turesandthesetsde'nableby'rst-orderformulas.Traditionallytherehave been two principal themes in the subject: *startingwithaconcretemathematicalstructure,suchasthe'eldofreal numbers, and using model-theoretic techniques to obtain new information about the structure and the sets de'nable in the structure; * looking at theories that have some interesting property and proving general structure theorems about their models. A good example of the ?rst theme is Tarski's work on the ?eld of real numbers. Tarski showed that the theory of the real ?eld is decidable. This is a sharp contrast to G¨ odel's Incompleteness Theorem, which showed that the theory of the seemingly simpler ring of integers is undecidable. For his proof, Tarski developed the method of quanti'er elimination which can be n used to show that all subsets of R de'nable in the real ?eld are geom- rically well-behaved. More recently, Wilkie [103] extended these ideas to prove that sets de'nable in the real exponential ?eld are also well-behaved. ThesecondthemeisillustratedbyMorley'sCategoricityTheorem,which says that if T is a theory in a countable language and there is an uncou- able cardinal ? such that, up to isomorphism, T has a unique model of cardinality ?,then T has a unique model of cardinality ? for every - countable'.ThislinehasbeenextendedbyShelah[92],whohasdeveloped deep general classi'cation results., Assumes only a familiarity with algebra at the beginning graduate level; Stresses applications to algebra; Illustrates several of the ways Model Theory can be a useful tool in analyzing classical mathematical structures, Preliminary Text. Do not use. This book offers an introductory course in model theory emphasizing connections to algebra. It will be an appropriate introduction both for graduate students interested in advanced work in model theory and for students and researchers in logic or algebra who want to learn the basic results and themes of model theory. In the end, the reader will have a firm background in model theory and be well motivated and well prepared for more advanced treatments like Pillay's "Geometric Model Theory" or Buechler's "Essential Stability Theory."
