14
+ The Scott rank of a countable structure is the least ordinal $\alpha$ such that all
15
+ automorphism orbits of the structure are definable by infinitary
16
+ $\Sigma_{\alpha}$ formulas. Montalbán showed that the Scott rank of
17
+ a structure is a robust measure of the structural and computational complexity
18
+ of a structure by showing that
19
+ various different measures are equivalent. For example, a structure has
20
+ Scott rank $\alpha$ if and only if it has a $\Pi_{\alpha+1}$ Scott sentence if
21
+ and only if it is uniformly $\pmb \Delta_\alpha^0$ categorical if and only if
22
+ all its automorphism orbits are $\Sigma_\alpha$ infinitary definable.

24
+ In this talk we present results on the Scott rank of non-standard models of Peano arithmetic. We show that
25
+ non-standard models of PA have Scott rank at least $\omega$, but, other
26
+ than that, there are no limits to their complexity. Given a completion $T$ of
27
+ $PA$ we give a reduction via bi-interpretability of the class of linear orders
28
+ to the models of $T$. This allows us to exhibit models of $T$ of Scott rank
29
+ $\alpha$ for every $\omega\leq \alpha\leq \omega_1$. In particular, every
30
+ completion of $T$ has models of high Scott rank.
