Abstract.

In a simple theory with elimination of finitary hyperimaginaries if tp(a) is real and analysable over a definable set Q, then there exists a finite sequence (ai \ in*) ⊆ dcleq(a) with an* = a such that for every in* if pi = tp(ai/{aj |j < i}) then Aut(pi / Q) is type-definable with its action on . A unidimensional simple theory eliminates the quantifier ∃ and either interprets (in Ceq) an infinite type-definable group or has the property that ACL(Q) = C for every infinite definable set Q.
