Recall that a group $G$ has finitely satisfiable generics ($fsg$) or definable $f$-generics ($dfg$) if there is a global type $p$ on $G$ and a small model $M_0$ such that every left translate of $p$ is finitely satisfiable in $M_0$ or…

This paper is about the $dfg$/$fsg$ decomposition for groups $G$ definable in $p$-adically closed fields. It is proved that for $G$ definably amenable, $G$ has a definable normal $dfg$ subgroup $H$ such that the quotient $G/H$ is a…

We consider interpretable topological spaces and topological groups in a $p$-adically closed field $K$. We identify a special class of "admissible topologies" with topological tameness properties like generic continuity, similar to the…

The aim of this paper is to develop the theory of groups definable in the $p$-adic field ${\mathbb Q}_p$, with ``definable $f$-generics" in the sense of an ambient saturated elementary extension of ${\mathbb Q}_p$. We call such groups…

It is known that a group G definable in the field of p-adic numbers is definably locally isomorphic to the group of Q_p-points of a connected algebraic group H defined over Q_p. We show that if H is commutative then G is…

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.

We continue the analysis of definably compact groups definable in a real closed field $\mathcal{R}$. In [3], we proved that for every definably compact definably connected semialgebraic group $G$ over $\mathcal{R}$ there are a connected…

Let $X$ be a definable group definable over a small model $M_0$. Recall that a global type $p$ on $X$ is definable $f$-generic over $M_0$ if every left translate of $p$ is definable over $M_0$. We call $p$ strongly $f$-generic over $M_0$ if…

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 study definably compact definably connected groups definable in a sufficiently saturated real closed field $R$. We introduce the notion of group-generic point for $\bigvee$-definable groups and show the existence of group-generic points…

Peterzil and Steinhorn proved that if a group $G$ definable in an $o$-minimal structure is not definably compact, then $G$ contains a definable torsion-free subgroup of dimension one. We prove here a $p$-adic analogue of the…

We prove some technical results on definable types in $p$-adically closed fields, with consequences for definable groups and definable topological spaces. First, the code of a definable $n$-type (in the field sort) can be taken to be a real…

The following theorem is proved: Let $G$ be a finite group and $\pi_e(G)$ be the set of element orders in $G$. If $\pi_e(G) \cap \{2\}=\emptyset$; or $\pi_e(G) \cap \{3, 4\}=\emptyset$; or $\pi_e(G) \cap \{3,5\}=\emptyset$, then $G$ is…

We generalize two of our previous results on abelian definable groups in $p$-adically closed fields to the non-abelian case. First, we show that if $G$ is a definable group that is not definably compact, then $G$ has a one-dimensional…

We present a proof of a result, previously announced by the second author, that there is a closed (even $\Pi^0_1$) set generating an $F_\sigma$ (even $\Sigma^0_2$) maximal cofinitary group (short, mcg) which is isomorphic to a free group.…

Given a definably compact group G in a saturated o-minimal structure, there is a canonical homomorphism from G to a compact real Lie group F(G). We establish a similar result for the (o-mininimal) universal cover of a definably compact…

We continue our earlier study of finite dimensional definable groups in models of the the model companion of an o-minimal L-theory T expanded by a generic derivation as in [F-K]. We generalize Buium's notion of an algebraic D-group to…

We show that a finite group $G$ admitting an automorphism $\alpha$ such that the function $G\rightarrow G$, $g\mapsto g\alpha(g)$, is bijective is necessarily solvable.

Recall that a definable group is `definably amenable' if it admits a translation-invariant Keisler measure. We prove a combinatorial characterization of definable amenability for groups definable in NIP theories. More specifically, given a…

We consider an arbitrary topological group $G$ definable in a structure $\mathcal M$, such that some basis for the topology of $G$ consists of sets definable in $\mathcal M$. To each such group $G$ we associate a compact $G$-space of…
