We develop the theory of germs of generic functions in simple theories. Starting with an algebraic quadrangle (or other similar hypotheses), we obtain an "almost" generic...
We present a self-contained exposition of the basic aspects of simple theories while developing the fundamentals of forking calculus. We expound also the deeper aspects of S. Shela...
We study the notion of weak dividing introduced by S. Shelah. In particular we prove that T is stable iff weak dividing is symmetric. In order to study simple theories Shelah orig...
