Abstract
As consequence of the VC theorem, any pseudo-finite measure over an NIP ultraproduct is generically stable. We demonstrate a converse of this theorem and prove that any finitely approximable measure over an ultraproduct is itself pseudo-finite (even without the NIP assumption). We also analyze the connection between the Morley product and the pseudo-finite product. In particular, we show that if μ is definable and both μ and ν are pseudo-finite, then the Morley product of μ and ν agrees with the pseudo-finite product of μ and ν. Using this observation, we construct generically stable idempotent measures on pseudo-finite NIP groups.
期刊介绍:
The journal Annals of Pure and Applied Logic publishes high quality papers in all areas of mathematical logic as well as applications of logic in mathematics, in theoretical computer science and in other related disciplines. All submissions to the journal should be mathematically correct, well written (preferably in English)and contain relevant new results that are of significant interest to a substantial number of logicians. The journal also considers submissions that are somewhat too long to be published by other journals while being too short to form a separate memoir provided that they are of particular outstanding quality and broad interest. In addition, Annals of Pure and Applied Logic occasionally publishes special issues of selected papers from well-chosen conferences in pure and applied logic.
