Eventual Categoricity Conjecture


The eventual categoricity conjecture for abstract elementary classes asserts that, for every infinite cardinal lambda, there is a cardinal mu(lambda)>=lambda such that every abstract elementary class K with LS(K)<=lambda categorical in some kappa>=mu(lambda) is categorical in every kappa^'>=mu(lambda). Categoricity includes existence and uniqueness up to isomorphism.
