Model Theory of Second Order Logic
... Let |A| = κ, |B| = λ. Both are second order characterizable, and so are B 0 = (λ ∪ P(κ), λ, <, P(κ), κ, π, N) and A0 = (κ, <, π, N), where π is a bijection of κ × κ onto κ. We show B 0 is not Turing-reducible to A0 . L = the vocabulary of B 0 , L0 ⊂ L that of A0 . Suppose for all second order L-sent ...
