Motivated by work of Hrushovski on pseudofinite fields with an additive character we investigate the theory ACFA+ which is the model companion of the theory of difference fields with an additive character on the fixed field working in (a mild version of) continuous logic. Building on results by Hrushovski we can recover it as the characteristic 0 asymptotic theory of the algebraic closure of finite fields with the Frobenius-automorphism and the standard character on the fixed field. We characterise 3-amalgamation in ACFA+ and obtain that ACFA+ is simple as well as a description of the connected component of the Kim-Pillay group. If time permits we present some results on higher amalgamation. |
