I would like to know how to obtain not well-founded $omega$-models of ZFC.



Are there any books about it? Other references to the literature are also welcome.

    Additionally it's bizarre that this has been closed as "unclear" - it's perfectly clear. I wonder how many of those who voted to close are actually familiar with the topic . . .

Once you know that the consistency of "There is a transitive model of ZFC" implies the consistency of "There is an $omega$-model of ZFC", assuming the existence of the former will provide you with the existence of the latter.



Of course, it is consistent that there are no $omega$-models, even if ZFC is consistent. So just obtaining them out of a model of ZFC is impossible.



But here is a nice way to get what you want. Start with a transitive model of ZFC, $M$. Fix some regular $kappa>omega$, and now add a generic ultrafilter and consider the generic ultrapower of $M$. It will have critical point $kappa$, so it remains an $omega$-model, but it will be ill-founded, as long as you didn't use a precipitous ideal for your forcing.

    +1. Another (unrelated of course) way to get an illfounded $omega$-model is via a Barwise Compactness argument: this lets us get an $omega$-model with wellfounded part of height $omega_1^CK$, or indeed of height $alpha$ for any admissible ordinal $alpha$.
