Let $K$ be a $p$-adically closed field and $G$ a group interpretable in $K$. We show that if $G$ is definably semisimple (i.e. $G$ has no definable infinite normal abelian subgroups) then there exists a finite normal subgroup $H$ such that…

We work in the category of locally definable groups in an o-minimal expansion of a field. Eleftheriou and Peterzil conjectured that every definably generated abelian connected group G in this category is a cover of a definable group. We…

We show that every definable group G in an o-minimal structure is definably finitely generated. That is, G contains a finite subset that is not included in any proper definable subgroup. This provides another proof, and a generalization to…

Through careful analysis of types inspired by [AGTW21] we characterize a notion of definable compactness for definable topologies in general o-minimal structures, generalizing results from [PP07] about closed and bounded definable sets in…

Let $T$ be a theory which is t-minimal, meaning that with respect to some definable topology, a unary definable set $D \subseteq M$ has non-empty interior iff it is infinite. If $K$ is a definable field in $T$, then $K$ is finite or "large"…

In this paper we study groups definable in existentially closed partial differential fields of characteristic 0 with an automorphism which commutes with the derivations. In particular, we study Zariski dense definable subgroups of simple…

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…

We show that every fsg group externally definable in an NIP structure is definably isomorphic to a group interpretable in it. Our proof relies on honest definitions and a group chunk result reconstructing a hyper-definable group from its…

We prove that in every finitely generated profinite group, every subgroup of finite index is open; this implies that the topology on such groups is determined by the algebraic structure. This is deduced from the main result about finite…

We study the $p$-adic algebraic groups $G$ from the definable topological-dynamical point of view. We consider the case that $M$ is an arbitrary $p$-adic closed field and $G$ an algebraic group over ${\mathbb Q}_p$ admitting an Iwasawa…

We prove that $\ omega $-categorical dp-minimal groups are nilpotent-by-finite. We also show that in dp-minimal definably amenable groups, f-generic global types are strongly f-generic.

A first order expansion of $(\mathbb{R},+,<)$ is dp-minimal if and only if it is o-minimal. We prove analogous results for algebraic closures of finite fields, $p$-adic fields, ordered abelian groups with only finitely many convex subgroups…

In this note we show that groups with definable generics in a separably closed valued of finite imperfection degree can be embedded into groups definable in their algebraic closure.

It is known that a definably compact group G is an extension of a compact Lie group L by a divisible torsion-free normal subgroup. We show that the o-minimal higher homotopy groups of G are isomorphic to the corresponding higher homotopy…

In this paper we study the relation between the category of real Lie groups and that of groups definable in o-minimal expansions of the real field, which we will refer to as ``definable groups''. With this terminology, it is known…

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…

Let $G$ be a dp-minimal group; we prove some consequences of several different hypotheses on $G$. First, if $G$ is torsion-free, then it is abelian. Second, if $G$ admits a distal f-generic type, then it is virtually nilpotent; we prove…

Universality has been an important concept in computable structure theory. A class $\mathcal{C}$ of structures is universal if, informally, for any structure, of any kind, there is a structure in $\mathcal{C}$ with the same…
