Higher instability non-structure conjecture over a predicate
Let be a countable theory and let be a distinguished unary predicate. Assume that is -unstable over for some . For every sufficiently large regular cardinal and every , consider models of of cardinality , with isomorphism taken over .
Higher instability conjecture. The theory has models of cardinality that are pairwise non-isomorphic over .
This is the paper's restatement of the non-structure direction of the generalized Gaifman conjecture. The source presents it as unproved and notes that proving it may be challenging.
