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…
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…
Dense pairs of geometric topological fields have tame open core, that is, every definable open subset in the pair is already definable in the reduct. We fix a minor gap in the published version of van den Dries's seminal work on dense pairs…
We propose to grok Lipschitz stratifications from a non-archimedean point of view and thereby show that they exist for closed definable sets in any power-bounded o-minimal structure on a real closed field. Unlike the previous approaches in…
Let ${\mathbb M}$ be an arbitrary o-minimal structure. Let $G$ be a definably compact definably connected abelian definable group of dimension $n$. Here we compute the new the intrinsic o-minimal fundamental group of $G;$ for each $k>0$,…
The collection of branches (maximal linearly ordered sets of nodes) of the tree ${}^{<\omega}\omega$ (ordered by inclusion) forms an almost disjoint family (of sets of nodes). This family is not maximal -- for example, any level of the tree…
This paper has two parts. In the first one, we prove that an invariant dp-minimal type is either finitely satisfiable or definable. We also prove that a definable version of the (p,q)-theorem holds in dp-minimal theories of small or medium…
The goal of this article is to exhibit two new families of finitely generated simple groups of homeomorphisms of $\mathbf{R}$. These families are strikingly different from existing families owing to the nature of their actions on…
We study definably amenable groups in NIP theories, and answer a question of Newelski (and also of Chernikov-Simon), by giving an example in the o-minimal context where weak generic types do not coincide with almost periodic types,…
We provide a complete classification of the possible cofinal structures of the families of precompact (totally bounded) sets in general metric spaces, and compact sets in general complete metric spaces. Using this classification, we…
For a non-compact metrizable space $X$, let ${\mathcal E}(X)$ be the set of all one-point metrizable extensions of $X$, and when $X$ is locally compact, let ${\mathcal E}_K(X)$ denote the set of all locally compact elements of ${\mathcal…
In the additive topological group $(\mathbb{R},+)$ of real numbers, we construct families of sets for which elements are not measurable in the Lebesgue sense. The constructed families have algebraic structures of being semigroups (i.e.,…
Consider a definable complete d-minimal expansion $(F, <, +, \cdot, 0, 1, \dots,)$ of an oredered field $F$. Let $X$ be a definably compact definably normal definable $C^r$ manifold and $2 \le r <\infty$. We prove that the set of definable…
We continue investigating the structure of externally definable sets in NIP theories and preservation of NIP after expanding by new predicates. Most importantly: types over finite sets are uniformly definable; over a model, a family of…
Let G be a definably compact group in an o-minimal expansion of a real closed field. We prove that if dim(G X) < dim G for some definable X subset of G then X contains a torsion point of G. Along the way we develop a general theory for…
In this article, we consider the notion of almost irredundant sets: A subset $\mathcal{X}$ of a C*-algebra $\mathcal{A}$ is called almost irredundant if and only if for every $a\in \mathcal{X}$, the element $a$ does not belong to the…
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 continue in this paper the study of locally minimal groups started in \cite{LocMin}. The minimality criterion for dense subgroups of compact groups is extended to local minimality. Using this criterion we characterize the compact abelian…
Given an o-minimal expansion $\mathbb{R}_{\mathcal{A}}$ of the real ordered field, generated by a generalized quasianalytic class $\mathcal{A}$, we construct an explicit truncation closed ordered differential field embedding of the Hardy…
We study the model theory of covers of groups definable in o-minimal structures. This includes the case of covers of compact real Lie groups. In particular we study categoricity questions, pointing out some notable differences with the case…
