First-order free group factor alternative
First-order free group factor alternative
For , let be the interpolated free group factor, and let the first-order fundamental group of be the group of positive scalars such that the amplification of by is elementarily equivalent to . Let denote elementary equivalence. First-order free group factor alternative. One of the following two statements must hold:
- for all , and the first-order fundamental group of is for all .
- for all , and the first-order fundamental group of is for all .
This is the proposed analogue for first-order elementary equivalence of the free group factor alternative. The source presents it as conjectural and does not state that either alternative has been established.
