Bi‐embeddability spectra and bases of spectra.

We study degree spectra of structures with respect to the bi‐embeddability relation. The bi‐embeddability spectrum of a structure is the family of Turing degrees of its bi‐embeddable copies. To facilitate our study we introduce the notions of bi‐embeddable triviality and basis of a spectrum. Using bi‐embeddable triviality we show that several known families of degrees are bi‐embeddability spectra of structures. We then characterize the bi‐embeddability spectra of linear orderings and study bases of bi‐embeddability spectra of strongly locally finite graphs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
