We study sets and groups definable in tame expansions of o-minimal structures. Let $\mathcal {\widetilde M}= \langle \mathcal M, P\rangle$ be an expansion of an o-minimal $\mathcal L$-structure $\cal M$ by a dense set $P$, such that three…

We first show that the projection image of a discrete definable set is again discrete for an arbitrary definably complete locally o-minimal structure. This fact together with the results in a previous paper implies tame dimension theory and…

We establish the first global results for groups definable in tame expansions of o-minimal structures. Let $\mathcal N$ be an expansion of an o-minimal structure $\mathcal M$ that admits a good dimension theory. The setting includes dense…

We prove that for an o-minimal expansion of the real additive group $\cal R$ and a set $P\subseteq \mathbb{R}$ of dimension $0$ such that $\langle\mathcal{R},P\rangle$ is sparse, has definable choice and every definable set has interior or…

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…

Given an o-minimal structure ${\mathcal M}$ with a group operation, we show that for a properly convex subset $U$, the theory of the expanded structure ${\mathcal M}'=({\mathcal M},U)$ has definable Skolem functions precisely when…

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…

We consider a natural class of long range random walks on torsion free nilpotent groups and develop limit theorems for these walks. Given the original discrete group $\Gamma$ and a random walk $(S_n)_ {n\ge1}$ driven by a certain type of…

We show that an infinite group is definable in any non trivial geometric $C$-minimal structure which is definably maximal and does not have any definable bijection between a bounded interval and an unbounded one in its canonical tree. No…

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…

Let N be an o-minimal structure. In this paper we develop group extension and group cohomology theory over N and use it to describe the N-definable solvable groups. We prove an o-minimal analogue of the Lie-Kolchin-Mal'cev theorem and we…

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 present a diagram surveying equivalence or strict implication for properties of different nature (algebraic, model theoretic, topological, etc.) about groups definable in o-minimal structures. All results are well-known and an extensive…

In this paper we work in an arbitrary o-minimal structure with definable Skolem functions and we prove that definably connected, locally definable manifolds are uniformly definably path connected, have an admissible cover by definably…

We extend some properties of random walks on hyperbolic groups to random walks on convergence groups. In particular we prove that if a convergence group $G$ acts on a compact metrizable space $M$ with the convergence property then we can…

We combine the fundamental results of Breuillard, Green, and Tao on the structure of approximate groups, together with "tame" arithmetic regularity methods based on work of the authors and Terry, to give a structure theorem for finite…

We develop in this paper the theory of covers for Hausdorff properly $\bigvee $-definable manifolds with definable choice in an o-minimal structure $\N$. In particular, we show that given an $\N$-definably connected $\N$-definable group $G$…

We prove group existence and structure theorems in a general setting of tame topological theories. More precisely, we identify a linear/non-linear dividing line -- called topological 1-basedness -- among the class of t-minimal theories with…

In this paper we prove tight bounds on the combinatorial and topological complexity of sets defined in terms of $n$ definable sets belonging to some fixed definable family of sets in an o-minimal structure. This generalizes the…

We prove several structural results on definably compact groups G in o-minimal expansions of real closed fields, such as (i) G is definably an almost direct product of a semisimple group and a commutative group, and (ii) the group (G, .) is…
