Extract

In [KP] we have studied the problem of determining when a subset of a (countable) model M of PA can be coded in an elementary end extension of M. Sets with this property are called elementary extensional. In particular we can ask whether there are elementary extensional subsets of a model which have order type ω. It turns out that having elementary extensional subsets of order type ω is an interesting property connected with other structural properties of models of PA. We will call this property the ω-property. In [KP] the problem of characterizing models with the ω-property was left open. It is still open, and the aim of this paper is to present a collection of results pertaining to it. It should be mentioned that the same notion was studied by Kaufmann and Schmerl in [KS2] in connection with some weak notions of saturation which they discuss there. Our notion of a model with the ω-property corresponds to the notion of an upward monotonically ω-lofty cut.

It is fairly easy to see that countable recursively saturated models (or in fact all recursively saturated models with cofinality ω) and all short recursively saturated models have the ω-property (Proposition 1.2 below). On the other hand, if we had asked the question about the existence of models with the ω-property before 1975 (when recursively saturated models were introduced) the answer would probably not have been that easy and we would have to come to notions close to recursive saturation.
