The Number of Atomic Models of Uncountable Theories

preprint2016arXivOpen access

Abstract

We show there exists a complete theory in a language of size continuum possessing a unique atomic model which is not constructible. We also show it is consistent with ZFC+ℵ1<2ℵ0ZFC + \aleph_1 < 2^{\aleph_0} that there is a complete theory in a language of size ℵ1\aleph_1 possessing a unique atomic model which is not constructible. Finally we show it is consistent with ZFC+ℵ1<2ℵ0ZFC + \aleph_1 < 2^{\aleph_0} that for every complete theory TT in a language of size ℵ1\aleph_1, if TT has uncountable atomic models but no constructible models, then TT has 2ℵ12^{\aleph_1} atomic models of size ℵ1\aleph_1.
