We prove quantifier elimination for the theory of quasi-real closed fields with a compatible valuation. This unifies the same known results for algebraically closed valued fields and real closed valued fields.

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 $T$ be an o-minimal theory expanding $\mathrm{RCF}$ and $T_\mathrm{convex}$ be the common theory of its models expanded by predicate for a non-trivial $T$-convex valuation ring. We call an elementary extension $(\mathbb{E}, \mathcal{O})…

We consider a definably complete locally o-minimal expansion of an ordered field. We treat two topics in this paper. The first topic is a definable $\mathcal C^r$ approximation of a definable $\mathcal C^{r-1}$ map between definable…

Let $\mathcal{R}$ be an expansion of the ordered real additive group. When $\mathcal{R}$ is o-minimal, it is known that either $\mathcal{R}$ defines an ordered field isomorphic to $(\mathbb{R},<,+,\cdot)$ on some open subinterval…

Let R be an o-minimal field and V a proper convex subring with residue field k and standard part (residue) map st: V \to k. Let k_{ind} be the expansion of k by the standard parts of the definable relations in R. We investigate the…

We prove the definability, and actually the finiteness of the commutator width, of many commutator subgroups in groups definable in o-minimal structures. It applies in particular to derived series and to lower central series of solvable…

We provide axiomatization and relative quantifier elimination for valued fields equipped with an automorphism, in residue characteristic zero. Similar results are known under strong assumptions on the interaction between the automorphism…

In this paper we find general criteria to ensure that, in an arbitrary o-minimal structure, the o-minimal cohomology without supports and with definably compact supports of a definable space with coefficients in a sheaf is invariant in…

We consider the structure $(\mathbb{Z},+,0,|_{p_{1}},\dots,|_{p_{n}})$, where $x|_{p}y$ means $v_{p}(x)\leq v_{p}(y)$ and $v_p$ is the $p$-adic valuation. We prove that its theory has quantifier elimination in the language…

Let $\mathcal{R}$ be an $\mathrm{NIP}$ expansion of $(\mathbb{R},<,+)$ by closed subsets of $\mathbb{R}^n$ and continuous functions $f : \mathbb{R}^m \to \mathbb{R}^n$. Then $\mathcal{R}$ is generically locally o-minimal. It follows that if…

We present a general simplification of quantified SMT formulas using variable elimination. The simplification is based on an analysis of the ground terms occurring as arguments in function applications. We use this information to generate a…

We use generalized Taylor formulae in order to give some simple constructions in the real closure of an \ovfz. We deduce a new, simple quantifier elimination algorithm for \rcvfs and some theorems about constructible subsets of real…

We consider definably complete and Baire expansions of ordered fields: every definable subset of the domain of the structure has a supremum and the domain can not be written as the union of a definable increasing family of nowhere dense…

We prove a theorem which provides a method for constructing points on varieties defined by certain smooth functions. We require that the functions are definable in a definably complete expansion of a real closed field and are locally…

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…

In 1985, van den Dries showed that the theory of the reals with a predicate for the integer powers of two admits quantifier elimination in an expanded language, and is hence decidable. He gave a model-theoretic argument, which provides no…

We give an example of a definable quotient in an o-minimal structure which cannot be eliminated over any set of parameters, giving a negative answer to a question of Eleftheriou, Peterzil, and Ramakrishnan. Equivalently, there is an…

We give a new proof of quantifier elimination in the theory of all ordered abelian groups in a suitable language. More precisely, this is only "quantifier elimination relative to ordered sets" in the following sense. Each definable set in…

We give a proof of the o-minimal version of the Whitney Extension Theorem simplified as compared to the original ones. A new simplifying ingredient is a definable variant of Urysohn's lemma for class $\mathcal{C}^q$ (see Section 3).
