The classification of small weakly minimal sets. III: Modules
AbstractTheorem A. Let M be a left R-module such that Th(M) is small and weakly minimal, but does not have Morley rank 1. Let A = acl(∅) ⋂ M and I = {r ∈ R: rM ⊂ A}. Notice that I is an ideal.(i) F = R/Iis a finite field.(ii) Suppose that a, b0,…,bn, ∈ M and . Then there are s, ri ∈ R, i ≤ n, such that sa + Σi≤nribi ∈ A and s ∉ I.It follows from Theorem A that algebraic closure in M is modular. Using this and results in [B1] and [B2], we obtainTheorem B. Let M be as in Theorem A. Then Vaught's conjecture holds for Th(M).
