Categoricity in multiuniversal classes

The third author has shown that Shelah's eventual categoricity conjecture holds in universal classes: class of structures closed under isomorphisms, substructures, and unions of chains. We extend this result to the framework of multiuniversal classes. Roughly speaking, these are classes with a closure operator that is essentially algebraic closure (instead of, in the universal case, being essentially definable closure). Along the way, we prove in particular that Galois (orbital) types in multiuniversal classes are determined by their finite restrictions, generalizing a result of the second author.     

A note on the tameness of hyperbolic 3-manifolds

Among other related results we prove that a hyperbolic 3-manifold which admits an exhaustion by nested cores is tame.     

Wild theories with o-minimal open core

Let T be a consistent o-minimal theory extending the theory of densely ordered groups and let $T^{\prime }$ be a consistent theory. Then there is a complete theory $T^{?}$ extending T such that T is an open core of $T^{?}$, but every model of $T^{?}$ interprets a model of $T^{\prime }$. If $T^{\prime }$ is NIP, $T^{?}$ can be chosen to be NIP as well. From this we deduce the existence of an NIP expansion of the real field that has no distal expansion.     

A More General Valuation and Arbitrage Theory for Itô Processes

Abstract

Stochastic ordinary differential equations may have solutions that explode in finite or infinite time. In this article we design an adaptive numerical scheme that reproduces the explosive behavior. The time step is adapted according to the size of the computed solution in such a way that, under adequate hypotheses, the explosion of the solutions is reproduced.
