Abstract

We show that each c-simple theory with an additional discreteness condition has an uncountable model Σ-definable in ℍ\( \mathbb{H} \)(\( \mathbb{L} \)), where \( \mathbb{L} \) is a dense linear order. From this we establish the same for all c-simple theories of finite signature that are submodel complete.
