Abstract
We prove generic differentiability in -minimal theories, strengthening an earlier result of Kuijpers and Leenknegt. Using this, we prove Onshuus and Pillay's -minimal analogue of Pillay's conjectures on o-minimal groups. Specifically, let be an -dimensional definable group in a highly saturated model of a -minimal theory. Then there is an open definable subgroup such that is compactly dominated by , and is a -adic Lie group of the expected dimension. Additionally, the generic differentiability theorem immediately implies a classification of interpretable fields in -minimal theories, by work of Halevi, Hasson, and Peterzil.
