Transfer of generalized amalgamation in simple theories

Baptiste Schilling

Abstract

We give an abstract framework to transfer generalized amalgamation from a simple theory to another, and we apply it to theories of lovely pairs and of bounded PAC structures. We show in particular that bounded pseudo-algebraically closed fields have generalized amalgamation, regardless of their imperfection degree.

Key Result

Lemma 2.6

Let $(p_w(x_w), w\in W)$ be an amalgamation system over a set of parameters $A$. If $B$ is a superset of $A$ such every $p_w(x_w)$ has a unique nonforking extension $q_w(x_w)$ to $B$, then $(q_w(x_w), w\in W)$ is an amalgamation system over $B$.
