Abstract

Let σ() denote the number of automorphisms of a model of power ω1. We derive a necessary and sufficient condition in terms of trees for the existence of an with . We study the sufficiency of some conditions for . These conditions are analogous to conditions studied by D. Kueker in connection with countable models.
