Abstract

A theory T is said to have exact saturation at a singular cardinal ? if it has a ?-saturated model which is not ?+-saturated. We show, under some set-Theoretic assumptions, that any simple theory has exact saturation. Also, an NIP theory has exact saturation if and only if it is not distal. This gives a new characterization of distality.
