Abstract:
We show that for every computable tree with no dead ends and all paths computable, and every , there is a -computable listing of the isolated paths of . It follows that for every complete decidable theory such that all the types of are computable and every , there is a -decidable prime model of . This result extends a theorem of Csima and yields a stronger version of the theorem, due independently to Slaman and Wehner, that there is a structure with presentations of every nonzero degree but no computable presentation.
