Set-up

T is a countable complete theory, M is a model of T, G is a group definable in M. We work in a monster model C. Definition A ⊆ P(G) is a G-algebra if A is closed under: Boolean operations left translation by elements of G. Definition (1) U ⊆ G is generic if G = AU for some finite A ⊆ G. (2) U ⊆ G is strongly generic if every non-empty V ∈ A is generic, where A is the G-algebra generated by U.

Bounded external orbits

Definition Assume M is κ+-saturated strongly ℵ0-homogeneous and p ∈ Sext,G(M). The orbit of p is bounded if 2|I| ≤ κ, where I = cl(Gp). Proposition 4 Assume p ∈ Sext,G(M) has a bounded orbit. Then: (1) G ∞ exists and equals G 00. (2) The G-orbit of every almost periodic type in Sext,G(M) has size ≤ 2ℵ0. (3) Stab(q) = G 00 ∩ M for every almost periodic q ∈ Sext,G(M). Definition G has a bounded external orbit if there is a type p ∈ Sext,G(M) with a bounded orbit for every M that is κ+-saturated strongly ℵ0-homogeneous, where κ = 4(ℵ0).
