"Existentially-atomic models"
We will talk about "Existentially atomic" and "Existentially algebraic" structures. We will give some examples and will show that being existentially algebraic implies being existentially atomic. As a particular example, we will prove a necessary and sufficient condition for a linear ordering to be existentially atomic.
