We describe Greenberg's pseudo-null conjecture, and prove a result describing conditions under which the pseudo-null conjecture for a number field $K$ implies the conjecture for finite extensions of $K$. We then apply the result to the…

Given a weakly o-minimal structure $\mathcal M$ and its o-minimal completion $\bar {\mathcal M}$, we first associate to $\bar {\mathcal M}$ a canonical language and then prove that $Th(\mathcal M)$ determines $Th(\bar {\mathcal M})$. We…

Let $X \subset \mathbb{C}^n$ be an algebraic variety, and let $\Lambda \subset \mathbb{C}^n$ be a discrete subgroup whose real and complex spans agree. We describe the topological closure of the image of $X$ in $\mathbb{C}^n / \Lambda$,…

We prove a decomposition of definable groups in o-minimal structures generalizing the Jordan-Chevalley decomposition of linear algebraic groups. It follows that any definable linear group G is a semidirect product of its maximal normal…

It is proved that the assembly map in algebraic K- and L-theory with respect to the family of finite subgroups is injective for groups $\Gamma$ with finite quotient finite decomposition complexity (a strengthening of finite decomposition…

The following strong form of density of definable types is introduced for theories T admitting a fibered dimension function d: given a model M of T and a definable subset X of M^n, there is a definable type p in X, definable over a code for…

We study groups definable in existentially closed geometric fields with commuting derivations. Our main result is that such a group can be definably embedded in a group interpretable in the underlying geometric field. Compared to earlier…

It is known that every semigroup of normal completely positive maps of a von Neumann can be ``dilated" in a particular way to an E_0-semigroup acting on a larger von Neumann algebra. The E_0-semigroup is not uniquely determined by the…

By a theorem of Dixmier-Douady the unitary group of an infinite-dimensional separable Hilbert space $H$ in the strong operator topology is contractible. The Dixmier-Douady proof is based on an explicit construction of families of subspaces…

An expansion of a definably complete field either defines a discrete subring, or the image of a definable discrete set under a definable map is nowhere dense. As an application we show a definable version of Lebesgue's differentiation…

We extend \cite[Theorem 4.5]{DGNO} and \cite[Theorem 4.22]{LKW} to positive characteristic (i.e., to the finite, not necessarily fusion, case). Namely, we prove that if $\D$ is a finite non-degenerate braided tensor category over an…

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…

This paper began as a generalization of a part of the author's PhD thesis about ACFA and ended up with a characterization of groups definable in T_A. The thesis concerns minimal formulae in ACFA of the form "p lies on an algebraic curve A…

We extend the theory of complex cells introduced by Binyamini and Novikov to the sharply o-minimal setting, obtaining cellular preparation and parameterization theorems which are polynomially effective in the degrees of the relevant sets.…

Real points of Schottky space ${\mathcal S}_{g}$ are in correspondence with extended Kleinian groups $K$ containing, as a normal subgroup, a Schottky group $\Gamma$ of rank $g$ such that $K/\Gamma \cong {\mathbb Z}_{2n}$ for a suitable…

In this paper we work in an arbitrary o-minimal structure with definable Skolem functions and we prove that definably connected, locally definable manifolds are uniformly definably path connected, have an admissible cover by definably…

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…

Motivated by possible applications to meromorphic dynamics, and generalising known properties of difference-closed fields, this paper studies the theory CCMA of compact complex manifolds with a generic automorphism. It is shown that while…

We establish a surprising correspondence between groups definable in o-minimal structures and linear algebraic groups, in the nilpotent case. It turns out that in the o-minimal context, like for finite groups, nilpotency is equivalent to…

In "On o-minimal homotopy groups", o-minimal homotopy was developed for the definable category, proving o-minimal versions of the Hurewicz theorems and the Whitehead theorem. Here, we extend these results to the category of locally…
