Abstract

For a theory T in L, Tσ is the theory of the models of T with an automorphism σ. If T is an unstable model complete theory without the independence property, then Tσ has no model companion. If T is an unstable model complete theory and Tσ has the amalgamation property, then Tσ has no model companion. If T is model complete and has the fcp, then Tσ has no model completion.
