ultra-universal


Let T be a first order theory. A model M of T is said to be an ultra-universal model of T iff for every model A of T there exists and ultra-power of M into which A can be embedded. [1, 3]

If T has an ultra-universal model it is referred to as an ultra-universal theory. The class of models of an ultra-universal theory is called an ultra-universal class. If T is an ultra-universal theory with elementary class K and ultra-universal model M then M is said to be ultra-universal in K. [3]

0.0.1 Characterizations

Ultra-universal classes are precisely the non-empty elementary classes having the joint embedding property. [3]

Ultra-universal models can be characterized in terms of universalPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath or existential sentences:

Let T be theory and let M be a model of T. The following are equivalentMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath: [3]

  1. 1.

    M is an ultra-universal model of T

  2. 2.

    Every universal sentence holding in M holds in all models of T

  3. 3.

    Every existential sentence holding in some model of T holds in M

A theory T is ultra-universal iff it is consistent and for all universal sentences ϕ and ψ, Tϕψ implies Tϕ or Tψ. [3]

A completePlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath consistent theory is always ultra-universal. More generally the set of universal sentences Σ of a complete consistent theory T is always an ultra-universal theory - a model of T is an ultra-universal model of Σ. Ultra-universal theories are precisely those theories T which are consistent and can be extended to a complete consistent theory without introducing any universal sentences that are not deducibleMathworldPlanetmath from T. [3]

In terms of the Lindenbaum-Tarski algebra for a first order language L, a theory T in L is ultra-universal iff the filter F that it generates in the Lindenbaum-Tarski algebra is proper and can be extended to an ultrafilterMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmath U such that FA=UA where A is the sub-lattice of universal sentences. Moreover T is ultra-universal iff FA is a prime proper filter in A. Thus ultra-universal theories correspond to prime proper filters in the boundedPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath distributive latticeMathworldPlanetmath of universal sentences. [3]

  • The productMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath of all fintely generated substructures (up to isomorphismMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath) of members of a factor embeddable universal Horn class (in particular a factor embeddable variety of algebraic structuresPlanetmathPlanetmath) is ultra-universal in the class. [3]

  • More generally, any model in an elementary class having the property that all fintely generated substructures of the class are embeddable in it, is ultra-universal in the class. [3]
