### Definable Types Over Banach Spaces

José Iovino

#### Abstract

We study connections between asymptotic structure in a Banach space and model theoretic properties of the space. We show that, in an asymptotic sense, a sequence in a Banach space X generates copies of one of the classical sequence spaces or inside X (almost isometrically) if and only if the quantifier-free types approximated by inside X are quantifier-free definable. More precisely, if is a bounded sequence X such that no normalized sequence of blocks of converges, then the following two conditions are equivalent. (1) There exists a sequence of blocks of such that for every finite dimensional subspace E of X, every quantifier-free type over is quantifier-free definable. (2) One of the following two conditions holds: (a) there exists such that for every and every finite dimensional subspace E of X there exists a sequence of blocks of which is -equivalent over E to the standard unit basis of ; (b) for every and every finite dimensional subspace E of X there exists a sequence of blocks of which is -equivalent over E to the standard unit basis of . Several byproducts of the proof are analyzed.
