Categoricity, External and Internal: An Excerpt from a Conversation with Saharon Shelah
View through CrossRef
AbstractA long series of conversations interweaving mathematical, historical and philosophical aspects of categoricity in model theory took place between the author and Saharon Shelah in 2016 and 2017. In this excerpt of that long conversation, we explore the relationship between explicit and implicit aspects of categoricity. We also discuss the connection with definability issues.
