Sparse graphs and the fixed points on type spaces property

Abstract

We examine the topological dynamics of the automorphism groups of ω-categorical sparse graphs resulting from Hrushovski constructions. Specifically, we consider the fixed points on type spaces property, which a structure M has if, for all n , every Aut (M)-subflow of the space Sn(M) of n-types has a fixed point. Extending a result of Evans, Hubička and Nešetřil, we show that there exists an ω-categorical structure M, resulting from a Hrushovski construction, such that no ω-categorical expansion of M has the fixed points on type spaces property.
