The motivic Thom-Sebastiani theorem for regular and formal functions

Algebraic Geometry 2014-05-29 v1 Logic

Abstract

Thanks to Hrushovski-Loeser's work on motivic Milnor fibers, we give a model-theoretic proof for the motivic Thom-Sebastiani theorem in the case of regular functions. Moreover, slightly extending of Hrushovski-Loeser's construction adjusted to Sebag, Loeser and Nicaise's motivic integration for formal schemes and rigid varieties, we formulate and prove an analogous result for formal functions. The latter is meaningful as it has been a crucial element of constructing Kontsevich-Soibelman's theory of motivic Donaldson-Thomas invariants.
