Let be a universal class with categorical in a regular with arbitrarily large models, and let be the class of all for which there is such that. We prove that is totally categorical (i.e., ξ‐categorical for all ) and for. This result is partially stronger and partially weaker than a related result due to Vasey. In addition to small differences in our categoricity transfer results, we provide a shorter and simpler proof. In the end we prove the main theorem of (...) this paper: the models of are essentially vector spaces (or trivial, i.e., disintegrated). (shrink)

We investigate a notion called uniqueness in power κ that is akin to categoricity in power κ, but is based on the cardinality of the generating sets of models instead of on the cardinality of their universes. The notion is quite useful for formulating categoricity-like questions regarding powers below the cardinality of a theory. We prove, for universal theories T, that if T is κ-unique for one uncountable κ, then it is κ-unique for every uncountable κ; in particular, it is (...) categorical in powers greater than the cardinality of T.
