We show that separability and second-countability are first-order properties among topological spaces definable in o-minimal expansions of $(\mathbb{R},<)$. We do so by introducing first-order characterizations -- definable separability and…
The following two assertions are equivalent for an o-minimal expansion of an ordered group $\mathcal M=(M,<,+,0,\ldots)$. There exists a definable bijection between a bounded interval and an unbounded interval. Any definable continuous…
A pointwise definable model is one in which every object is definable without parameters. In a model of set theory, this property strengthens V=HOD, but is not first-order expressible. Nevertheless, if ZFC is consistent, then there are…
We define a discrete closure operation for definably complete locally o-minimal structures $\mathcal M$. The pair of the underlying set of $\mathcal M$ and the discrete closure operation forms a pregeometry. We define the rank of a…
Every o-minimal expansion R-tilde of the real field has an o-minimal expansion P(R-tilde) in which the solutions to Pfaffian equations with definable C^1 coefficients are definable.
Let $\mathfrak{P}$ be a topological property. We study the relation between the order structure of the set of all $\mathfrak{P}$-extensions of a completely regular space $X$ with compact remainder (partially ordered by the standard partial…
We consider definable topological spaces of dimension one in o-minimal structures, and state several equivalent conditions for when such a topological space $\left(X,\tau\right)$ is definably homeomorphic to an affine definable space…
We consider locally o-minimal structures possessing tame topological properties shared by models of DCTC and uniformly locally o-minimal expansions of the second kind of densely linearly ordered abelian groups. We derive basic properties of…
In this paper we study the topology of a set naturally arising from the study of $\beta$-expansions. After proving several elementary results for this set we study the case when our base is Pisot. In this case we give necessary and…
We give several characterizations of when a complete first-order theory $T$ is monadically NIP, i.e. when expansions of $T$ by arbitrary unary predicates do not have the independence property. The central characterization is a condition on…
Let $R$ be an o-minimal expansion of a group in a language in which $\textrm{Th}(R)$ eliminates quantifiers, and let $C$ be a predicate for a valuational cut in $R$. We identify a condition that implies quantifier elimination for…
We study the properties of topological spaces $(X,\tau)$, where $X$ is a definable set in an o-minimal structure and the topology $\tau$ on $X$ has a basis that is (uniformly) definable. Examples of such spaces include the canonical…
The Expansion property considered by researchers in Social Choice is shown to correspond to a logical property of nonmonotonic consequence relations that is the {\em pure}, i.e., not involving connectives, version of a previously known weak…
Let $T$ be a theory with a definable topology. $T$ is t-minimal in the sense of Mathews if every definable set in one variable has finite boundary. If $T$ is t-minimal, we show that there is a good dimension theory for definable sets,…
We study the structure of infinite discrete sets D definable in expansions of ordered Abelian groups whose theories are strong and definably complete, with particular emphasis on the set D' comprised of differences between successive…
We consider the problem of constructing a weakly-continuous mapping extending continuous mapping defined on a dense set of a topological space to the entire space. Theorem on necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of such an…
The assertion that every definable set has a definable element is equivalent over ZF to the principle $V=\text{HOD}$, and indeed, we prove, so is the assertion merely that every $\Pi_2$-definable set has an ordinal-definable element.…
We analyze definably compact groups in o-minimal expansions of ordered groups as a combination of semi-linear groups and groups definable in o-minimal expansions of real closed fields. The analysis involves structure theorems about their…
Let $X$ be a scheme. In this text, we extend the known definitions of a topology on the set $X(R)$ of $R$-rational points from topological fields, local rings and ad\`ele rings to any ring $R$ with a topology. This definition is functorial…
We construct the universal type structure for conditional probability systems without any topological assumption, namely a type structure that is terminal, belief-complete, and non-redundant. In particular, in order to obtain the…
