    Model Theory: relation between two theories with the same models?

    This is a question out of model theory. (This preamble is due to the fact that "model" and "theory" are used in different ways in different fields.) Is there any specific relationship between two theories which have the same models? A knee-jerk reaction would be to say that they are isomorphic...
