Ample Pairs

We show that the ample degree of a stable theory with trivial forking is preserved when we consider the corresponding theory of belles paires, if it exists. This result also applies to the theory of $H$-structures of a trivial theory of rank $1$.Comment: Research partially supported by the program MTM2014-59178-P.

Amalgamation of types in pseudo-algebraically closed fields and applications

This paper studies unbounded PAC fields and shows an amalgamation result for types over algebraically closed sets. It discusses various applications, for instance that omega-free PAC fields have the property NSOP3. It also contains a description of imaginaries in PAC fields.Comment: Minor changes in v3.
