Abstract

E. Hrushovski proved that the theory of difference-differential fields of characteristic zero has a model-companion. We denote it DCFA. In this paper we study definable abelian groups in a model of DCFA. First we prove that such a group is embeddable on an algebraic group. Then, we study one-basedeness, stability and stable embeddability of abelian definable groups.

Keywords: model theory of fields; supersimple theories; difference-differential fields; definable goups; abelian groups

Resumen

E. Hrushovski demostró que la teoría de cuerpos diferenciables de diferencia de característica cero tiene una modelo-compañera. La denotamos DCFA. En este artículo estudiamos los grupos abelianos en un modelo de DCFA. Primero demostramos que tales grupos son isomorfos a un subgrupo de un grupo algebraico. Posteriormente, estudiaremos las propiedades de ser monobasados, estables y establemente inmersibles de grupos definibles abelianos.

Palabras clave: teoría de modelos de cuerpos; teorías supersimples; cuerpos diferenciales de diferencia; grupos definibles; grupos abelianos.
