    Splitting of finite covers of א<inf>0</inf>-categorical structures

    , Journal of the London Mathematical Society, Vol: 54, Pages: 210-226, ISSN: 0024-6107

    Suppose that W is a countable א0-categorical structure. We investigate the question as to whether every finite cover of W splits, that is, has an expansion which is a trivial finite cover of W. We show that for most primitive structures W which are homogeneous for a single binary relation (homogeneous graphs, partial orderings, the Henson digraphs, ...) any finite cover splits. However, in contrast to this, we show that there are non-split covers (with finite kernels) of the countable, universal, homogeneous local order.

    On the automorphism groups of finite covers

    , Annals of Pure and Applied Logic, Vol: 62, Pages: 83-112, ISSN: 0168-0072

    We are concerned with identifying by how much a finite cover of an א0-categorical structure differs from a sequence of free covers. The main results show that (in the best circumstances) this is measured by automorphism groups which are nilpotent-by-abelian. In the language of covers, these results say that every finite (regular) cover can be decomposed naturally into linked, superlinked and free covers. The superlinked covers arise from covers over a different base, and to describe this properly we introduce the notion of a quasi-cover. These results generalise results of the second author obtained in the case where the base of the cover is a grassmannian of a disintegrated set. They also give a complete proof of a statement of the second author extending this case to the case of a grassmannian of a modular set. To do this, we need to analyse the possible superlinked covers of such a set. We also give a combinatorial condition on the base of a cover which guarantees various chain conditions on finite covers over this base, and introduce a pregeometry which is useful in the analysis of finite covers with simple fibre groups. © 1993.
