Abstract

Let ℒ be a finite relational language and α = (αR: R ∈ ℒ) a tuple with 0 < αR ≤ 1 for each R ∈ ℒ. Consider a dimension function

δα(A) = |A| - ΣR ∈ ℒα_R e_R(A)

where each eR(A) is the number of realizations of R in A. Let Kα be the class of finite structures A such that δα(X) ≥ 0 for any substructure X of A. We show that the theory of the generic model of Kα is AE-axiomatizable for any α.
