After introducing some motivations for this survey, we describe a formalism to parametrize a wide class of algebraic structures occurring naturally in various problems of topology, geometry and mathematical physics. This allows us to define…

We show that certain families of sets in $\mathbb{R}^2$ (or $\mathbb{R}^n$) which are neither definable nor have bounded VC-dimension are nonetheless uniformly approximately definable in the real field, an o-minimal structure.

We show quantifier elimination theorems for real closed valued fields with separated analytic structure and overconvergent analytic structure in their natural one-sorted languages and deduce that such structures are weakly o-minimal. We…

Given a real closed field $R$, we identify exactly four proper reducts of $R$ which expand the underlying (unordered) $R$-vector space structure. Towards this theorem we introduce a new notion, of strongly bounded reducts of linearly…

A relatively new topic in computability theory is the study of notions of computation that are robust against mistakes on some kind of small set. However, despite the recent popularity of this topic relatively foundational questions about…

Let X be a definable sub-set of some o-minimal structure. We study the spectrum of X, in relation with the definability of types.

We prove the Zil'ber Trichotomy Principle for all 1-dimensional structures which are definable in o-minimal ones. In particular, we show that any stable 1-dimensional structure is necessarily locally modular. The main tool is a theory for…

We introduce the o-minimal LS-category of definable sets in o-minimal expansions of ordered fields and we establish a relation with the semialgebraic and the classical one. We also study the o-minimal LS-category of definable groups. Along…

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…

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…

A proper elementary extension of a model is called small if it realizes no new types over any finite set in the base model. We answer a question of Marker, and show that it is possible to have an o-minimal structure with a maximal small…

This paper investigates almost o-minimal structures, a weakening of o-minimality introduced by Fujita to capture structures that lie outside the classical o-minimal framework. In contrast to o-minimality and local o-minimality, almost…

We introduce the notion of a complex cell, a complexification of the cells/cylinders used in real tame geometry. For $\delta\in(0,1)$ and a complex cell $\mathcal{C}$ we define its holomorphic extension…

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…

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 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…

We classify group schemes in terms of their Cartier modules. We also prove the equivalence of different definitions of the tangent space and the dimension for these group schemes; in particular, the minimal dimension of a formal group law…

We develop a notion of cell decomposition suitable for studying weak p- adic structures (reducts of p-adic fields where addition and multiplication are not (everywhere) definable). As an example, we apply this to a language with restricted…

The principles behind the sharp, singular structures in a crumpled sheet are well understood. Here we discuss more general ways of exploiting such sharp structures to control the shape of a sheet by deforming or forcing it elsewhere. Often,…

The Pila-Wilkie theorem states that if a set $X\subseteq \mathbb R^n$ is definable in an o-minimal structure $\mathcal R$ and contains `many' rational points, then it contains an infinite semialgebraic set. In this paper, we extend this…
