We prove that the smallest minimizer s(f) of a real convex function f is less than or equal to a real point x if and only if the right derivative of f at x is non-negative. Similarly, the largest minimizer t(f) is greater or equal to x if…

We add an analytic trans-exponential function $\varphi$ to $\mathbb{R}_{an,\exp}$. We reduce the o-minimality of $\mathbb{R}_{an,\exp,\varphi}$ to the existence of "many" regular values for some definable systems of functions, which is a…
