In [1], Baldwin and Shi studied the properties of generic structures built from

certain Fraı̈ssé classes of weighted hypergraphs equipped with a notion of strong

substructure. Here we focus on a particularly important class of such structures,

where much stronger results are possible.

We begin by fixing a finite relational language and a set of weights α. After

constructing certain weighted hypergraphs with carefully chosen properties, we use

these constructions to obtain an ∀∃-axiomatization for the theory of the generic,

denoted by S α , and a quantifier elimination result for S α . These results, which

extend those of Laskowski in [2] and Ikeda, Kikyo and Tsuboi in [3] are then used

to study atomic and existentially closed models of S α , resulting in a necessary and

sufficient condition on the weights that yields the existence of atomic models of thecorresponding theory.

We then proceed to obtain the stability of S α and a characertization of non-

forking, simplifying the proofs of some of these well known results (see [1], [4]) in the process. We identify conditions on α that guarantee that S α is non-trivial and prove

that S α has the dimensional order property, a result that has only been established

under certain additional hypothesis (see [5], [2]).

Restricting ourselves to the case where the weights are all rational (excluding,

what is essentially a single exception), we characterize the countable models up

to isomorphism and show that they form an elementary chain of order type ω +

1. We also characterize the regular types of S α and explore the corresponding

pregeometries. We answer a question of Pillay in [6] by providing examples of

pseudofinite stable theories with non-locally modular regular types.

We conclude by studying the aforementioned exception (characterized by hav-

ing trivial forking) and extending some of the results to countably infinite languages.
