We generalize Hrushovski's Group Configuration Theorem to quasiminimal classes. As an application, we present Zariski-like structures, a generalization of Zariski geometries, and show that a group can be found there if the pregeometry…

We study analytic Zariski structures from the point of view of non-elementary model theory. We show how to associate an abstract elementary class with a one-dimensional analytic Zariski structure and prove that the class is stable,…

We study covers of the multiplicative group of an algebraically closed field as quasiminimal pregeometry structures and prove that they satisfy the axioms for Zariski-like structures presented in \cite{lisuriart}, section 4. These axioms…

We propose the notion of a quasiminimal abstract elementary class (AEC). This is an AEC satisfying four semantic conditions: countable L\"owenheim-Skolem-Tarski number, existence of a prime model, closure under intersections, and uniqueness…

Tkachenko and Yaschenko [34] characterized the abelian groups G such that all proper unconditionally closed subsets of G are finite, these are precisely the abelian groups G having cofinite Zariski topology (they proved that such a G is…

We show that if $\M$ is a Zariski-like structure (see \cite{lisuriart}) that does not interpret a non-classical group, and the canonical pregeometry obtained from the bounded closure operator (bcl) is non locally modular, then $\M$…

We examine the first order structure of pregeometries of structures built via Hrushovski constructions. In particular, we show that the class of flat pregeometries is an amalgamation class such that the pregeometry of the unbounded arity…

A new class of noncommutative $k$-algebras (for $k$ an algebraically closed field) is defined and shown to contain some important examples of quantum groups. To each such algebra, a first order theory is assigned describing models of a…

This is a foundation for algebraic geometry, developed internal to the Zariski topos, building on the work of Kock and Blechschmidt. The Zariski topos consists of sheaves on the site opposite to the category of finitely presented algebras…

We investigate topologies on groups which arise naturally from their algebraic structure, including the Frech\'et-Markov, Hausdorff-Markov, and various kinds of Zariski topologies. Answering a question by Dikranjan and Toller, we show that…

The objective of this paper is to describe the structure of Zariski closed algebras, which provide a useful generalization to finite dimensional algebras in the study of representable algebras over finite fields. Our results include a…

We study sets of solutions to equations over a free group, projections of such sets, and the structure of elementary sets defined over a free group. The structre theory we obtain enable us to answer some questions of A. Tarski's, and…

We prove group existence and structure theorems in a general setting of tame topological theories. More precisely, we identify a linear/non-linear dividing line -- called topological 1-basedness -- among the class of t-minimal theories with…

We characterize the Zariski topologies over an algebraically closed field in terms of general dimension-theoretic properties. Some applications are given to complex manifold and to strongly minimal sets.

The Zariski theorem says that for every hypersurface in a complex projective (resp. affine) space of dimension at least 3 and for every generic plane in the projective (resp. affine) space the natural embedding generates an isomorphism of…

We describe structure of quasihomomorphisms from arbitrary groups to discrete groups. We show that all quasihomomorphisms are 'constructible', i.e., are obtained via certain natural operations from homomorphisms to some groups and…

We start an analysis of geometric properties of a structure relative to a reduct. In particular, we look at definability of groups and fields in this context. In the relatively one-based case, every definable group is isogenous to a…

The article contains a survey of our results on weakly commensurable arithmetic and general Zariski-dense subgroups, length-commensurable and isospectral locally symmetric spaces and of related problems in the theory of semi-simple agebraic…

We provide sufficient conditions for two subgroups of a hierarchically hyperbolic group to generate an amalgamated free product over their intersection. The result applies in particular to certain geometric subgroups of mapping class groups…

The main result of this article is a refinement of the well-known subgroup separability results of Hall and Scott for free and surface groups. We show that for any finitely generated subgroup, there is a finite dimensional representation of…
