Vector spaces of the same dimension are isomorphic, thus it is obvious that
$\cV$ is essentially countable. Also $HP$ and $JEP$ are obvious, as we can
- always embed space with smaller dimension into the bigger one. Amalgamation
- works exactly the same. In fact, such amalgamation is indeed canonical.
+ always embed space with smaller dimension into the bigger one.
+
+ Amalgamation is a little more complex but still comes intuitively. Let $A$,
+ $B$ and $C$ be finitely dimensional vector spaces such that $C = A\cap B$.
+ Thus, we can write that $A = C\oplus C_A$ and $B = C\oplus C_B$. Then let
+ $D = C_A \oplus C \oplus C_B$ with embedding of $A$ and $B$ into $C_A\oplus C$
+ and $C_B\oplus C$ respectively. This is also canonical amalgamation.
+
+ The Fraïssé limit of $\cV$ is an $\omega$-dimensional vector space (which
+ is easy to see by Theorem \ref{theorem:fraisse_thm}). Hence we can conclude
+ that it has a generic automorphism.
Now we give some anti-examples:
