abstract

We investigate the descriptive complexity of the set of models of first-order theories. Using classical results of Knight and Solovay, we give a sharp condition for complete theories to have a $\pmb\Pi_\omega^0$-complete set of models. In particular, any sequential theory (a class of foundational theories isolated by Pudl\'ak) has a $\pmb\Pi_\omega^0$-complete set of models. We also give sharp conditions for theories to have a $\pmb\Pi^0_n$-complete set of models.
