Remarks on weak amalgamation and large conjugacy classes in non-archimedean groups

Abstract

Abstract We study the notion of weak amalgamation in the context of diagonal conjugacy classes. Generalizing results of Kechris and Rosendal, we prove that for every countable structure M , Polish group G of permutations of M , and $$n \ge 1$$ <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mml:mrow> <mml:mi>n</mml:mi> <mml:mo>≥</mml:mo> <mml:mn>1</mml:mn> </mml:mrow> </mml:math> , G has a comeager n -diagonal conjugacy class iff the family of all n -tuples of G -extendable bijections between finitely generated substructures of M , has the joint embedding property and the weak amalgamation property. We characterize limits of weak Fraïssé classes that are not homogenizable. Finally, we investigate 1- and 2-diagonal conjugacy classes in groups of ball-preserving bijections of certain ordered ultrametric spaces.
