    Abstract

    We define the class of $\tilde\tau_{low}^f$-sets. This is a class of
    type-definable sets defined in terms of forking by low formulas. We prove a
    model theoretic Baire category theorem for $\tilde\tau_{low}^f$-sets in a
    countable simple theory in which the extension property is first-order and show
    some of its applications. A typical application is the following. Let $T$ be a
    countable theory with the wnfcp (weak nonfinite cover property) and assume for
    every non-algebraic $a$ there exists a non-algebraic $a'\acl(a)$ such that
    $SU(a')<\omega$.

  2. Countable imaginary simple unidimensional theories.

    Abstract

    We prove that a countable simple unidimensional theory that eliminates
    hyperimaginaries is supersimple. This solves a problem of Shelah in the more
    general context of simple theories under weak assumptions.
