Why is this absoluteness of ℵ1-categoricity true for AEC? Using Set theory in model theory Kilpisjarvi¨ Fact 2013 John T. Suppose that K is an analytically presented AEC. Then the Baldwin following statements are equivalent. Context 1 There exist a countable M ∈ K and an N ∈ K of Absoluteness cardinality ℵ1 such that: of Existence M ≺K N; Set Theoretic Method the set of Galois types over M realized in N is Analytically countable; Presented AEC some Galois type over M is not realized in N. ◦ Almost Galois 2 There is a countable model of ZFC whose ω1 is ω-stability and absoluteness well-founded and which contains trees on ω giving rise of ℵ1- categoricity to K, ≺K and the associated relation ∼0, and satisfies Models in ℵ2 statement 1.
