Abstract:We show the theory of pointed R-trees with radius at most r is axiomatizable in a suitable continuous signature. We identify the model companion rbRTr of this theory and study its properties. In particular, the model companion is complete and has quantifier elimination; it is stable but not superstable. We identify its independence relation and find built-in canonical bases for non-algebraic types. Among the models of rbRTr are R-trees that arise naturally in geometric group theory. In every infinite cardinal,… Show more
