    On model theory of covers of algebraically closed fields

    Full text link
    We study covers of the multiplicative group of an algebraically closed field as quasiminimal pregeometry structures and prove that they satisfy the axioms for Zariski-like structures presented in \cite{lisuriart}, section 4. These axioms are intended to generalize the concept of a Zariski geometry into a non-elementary context. In the axiomatization, it is required that for a structure \M, there is, for each nn, a collection of subsets of \M^n, that we call the \emph{irreducible sets}, satisfying certain properties. These conditions are generalizations of some qualities of irreducible closed sets in the Zariski geometry context. They state that some basic properties of closed sets (in the Zariski geometry context) are satisfied and that specializations behave nicely enough. They also ensure that there are some traces of Compactness even though we are working in a non-elementary context
