Abstract

We collect results related to generic constructions and generic limits for semantic and syntactic cases. It is considered both by pure model theory approach and by the institutional approach.

Notes

  1. 1.

    Note that \(\mathbf{D}_0\) is closed under bijective substitutions since \(\preceq \) is preserved by bijective substitutions and \(\preceq \) is reflexive.

  2. 2.

    Note that \(\varPhi (A) \preceq \Psi (B)\) implies \(A \subseteq B\), since if \(a\in A\) then \((a\approx a)\in \varPhi (A)\), so \(\varPhi (A) \preceq \Psi (B)\) implies \(\varPhi (A) \subseteq \Psi (B)\) and we have \((a\approx a)\in \Psi (B)\), whence \(a\in B\).
