We initiate an investigation of structures on the set of real numbers having the property that path components of definable sets are definable. All o\nobreakdash-\hspace{0pt}minimal structures on $(\mathbb{R},<)$ have the property, as do…
We show that the first order theory of the lattice of open sets in some natural topological spaces is $m$-equivalent to second order arithmetic. We also show that for many natural computable metric spaces and computable domains the first…
This paper addresses some questions about dimension theory for P-minimal structures. We show that, for any definable set A, the dimension of the frontier of A is strictly smaller than the dimension of A itself, and that A has a…
We start an analysis of geometric properties of a structure relative to a reduct. In particular, we look at definability of groups and fields in this context. In the relatively one-based case, every definable group is isogenous to a…
Orthogonality in model theory captures the idea of absence of non-trivial interactions between definable sets. We introduce a somewhat opposite notion of cohesiveness, capturing the idea of interaction among all parts of a given definable…
A note connecting arguments scattered in the extant literature proving that, in any o-minimal expansion of the real field, a definable family of sets has the property that the set of parameters corresponding to finite-volume fibers is…
Given a structure $\mathcal{M}$ with a definable topology, its open core is a structure defined on the same universe whose language consists of all open sets of all arities definable in $\mathcal{M}$. In response to questions raised by…
Every bounded definable open set is a union of finitely many open strong cells in a weakly o-minimal expansion of a real closed field. We prove this fact and another theorem similar to it.
For first-order expansions of the field of real numbers, nondefinability of the set of natural numbers is equivalent to equality of topological and Assouad dimension on images of closed definable sets under definable continuous maps.
Given a relational structure M on n elements, let D(M) be the minimum quantifier rank of a first order formula identifying M up to isomorphism in the class of n-element structures. The obvious upper bound is D(M)\le n. We show that if the…
Let M be an o-minimal structure with elimination of imaginaries, N an unstable structure definable in M. Then there exists X, interpretable in N, such that X with all the structure induced from N is o-minimal. In particular X is linearly…
In this paper, we study definably compact semigroups in o-minimal structures, aiming to extend the theory of definable groups to a broader algebraic setting. We show that any definably compact semigroup contains idempotents and admits a…
Let $\mathbb{M}$ be the monster model of a complete first-order theory $T$. If $\mathbb{D}$ is a subset of $\mathbb{M}$, following D. Zambella we consider $e(\mathbb{D})=\{\mathbb{D}^\prime\mid (\mathbb{M},\mathbb{D})\equiv…
An ordered structure is called o-minimalistic if it has all the first-order features of an o-minimal structure. We propose a theory, DCTC (Definable Completeness/Type Completeness), that describes many properties of o-minimalistic…
We give a rigorous formulation of the intuitive idea that a differentiable map should be thesame thing as a locally, or infinitesimally, linear map: just as a linear map respects the operations of addition and multiplication by scalars ina…
The paper introduces the class of O-metric spaces, a novel generalization of metric-type spaces, classifying almost all possible metric types into upward and downward O-metrics. We list some topologies arising from O-metrics and discuss…
In this paper, we present several definitive characterizations of the $C^1$ smoothness of definable sets in terms of their tangent cones and some other metric properties. In particular, we recover some of the beautiful characterizations…
Consider the semialgebraic structure over the real field. More generally, let an ominimal structure be over a real closed field. We show that a definable metric space X with a definable metric d is embedded into a Euclidean space so that…
We describe a class of sharply o-minimal structures, called analytically generated structures, whose definable sets and their complexity filtration are determined by the collection of definable complex cells. We prove a polynomially…
The recently introduced and characterized scalable frames can be considered as those frames which allow for perfect preconditioning in the sense that the frame vectors can be rescaled to yield a tight frame. In this paper we define…
