Measuring definable sets in o-minimal fields

Logic 2014-04-29 v2

Abstract

We introduce a non real-valued measure on the definable sets contained in the finite part of a cartesian power of an o-minimal field RR. The measure takes values in an ordered semiring, the Dedekind completion of a quotient of RR. We show that every measurable subset of RnR^n with non-empty interior has positive measure, and that the measure is preserved by definable C1C^1-diffeomorphisms with Jacobian determinant equal to ±1\pm 1.
