We prove that the Urysohn sphere is rosy (with respect to finitary imaginaries), providing the first example of an essentially continuous unstable theory with a nice notion of independence. In the process, we show that a real rosy theory which has weak elimination of finitary imaginaries is rosy with respect to finitary imaginaries, a fact which is new even for classical real rosy theories.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2009-11-18T00:44:14.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "03C45", "03C65" ], "keywords": [ "continuous logic", "real rosy theory", "finitary imaginaries", "classical real rosy theories", "nice notion" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 36, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2009arXiv0911.3446E" } } }
