On properties of theories which preclude the existence of universal models
We introduce the oak property of first order theories, which is a syntactical condition that we show to be sufficient for a theory not to have universal models in cardinality whe...

More on SOP1 and SOP2
This paper continues [Sh500] and [DzSh692]. We present a rank function for NSOP1 theories and give an example of a theory which is NSOP1 but not simple. We also investigate the con...

Pairs, sets and sequences in first-order theories
In this paper we study the idea of theories with containers, like sets, pairs, sequences. We provide a modest framework to study such theories. We prove two concrete results. Firs...

Effectively inseparable Boolean algebras in lattices of sentences
We show the non-arithmeticity of 1st order theories of lattices of n sentences modulo provable equivalence in a formal theory, of diagonalizable algebras of a wider class of arithm...

The First Order Theories of the Medvedev and Muchnik Lattices
We show that the first order theories of the Medevdev lattice and the Muchnik lattice are both computably isomorphic to the third order theory of the natural numbers.
