Existentially closed groups are, informally, groups that contain solutions to every consistent finite system of equations and inequations. They were introduced in 1951 in an algebraic context and subsequent research elucidated deep…
We study the topological complexity of sets defined using Khovanskii's Pfaffian functions, in terms of an appropriate notion of format for those sets. We consider semi- and sub-Pfaffian sets, but more generally any definable set in the…
The main goal of this paper is to size up the minimal graded free resolution of a homogeneous ideal in terms of its generating degrees. By and large, this is too ambitious an objective. As understood, sizing up means looking closely at the…
Let $ \mathbb{A}$ be a cellular algebra over a field $\mathbb{F}$ with a decomposition of the identity $ 1_{\mathbb{A}} $ into orthogonal idempotents $ e_i$, $i \in I$ (for some finite set $I$) satisfying some properties. We describe the…
Termination analysis of linear loops plays a key r\^{o}le in several areas of computer science, including program verification and abstract interpretation. Already for the simplest variants of linear loops the question of termination…
We prove a conjecture of Griffiths on the quasi-projectivity of images of period maps using algebraization results arising from o-minimal geometry. Specifically, we first develop a theory of analytic spaces and coherent sheaves that are…
We investigate the Hodge structure of the singular O'Grady's six and ten dimensional examples of irreducible symplectic varieties. In particular, we compute some of their Betti numbers and their Euler characteristic. As consequence, we…
For a smooth, projective, complex algebraic variety $X$, the Riemann--Hilbert correspondence establishes a complex analytic isomorphism between the `Betti moduli space' of rank $n$ local systems on $X^\mathrm{an}$ and the `de Rham moduli…
We give a geometric proof of existence of Whitney stratifications of definable sets in o-minimal structures.
A general definition of mathematical morphology has been defined within the algebraic framework of complete lattice theory. In this framework, dealing with deterministic and increasing operators, a dilation (respectively an erosion) is an…
We prove that all known examples of weakly o-minimal non-valuational structures have no definable Skolem functions. We show, however, that such structures eliminate imaginaries up to (definable families of) definable cuts. Along the way we…
Working constructively, we study continuous directed complete posets (dcpos) and the Scott topology. Our two primary novelties are a notion of intrinsic apartness and a notion of sharp elements. Being apart is a positive formulation of…
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…
The complement of a complex hyperplane arrangement is known to be homotopic to a minimal CW complex. There are several approaches to the minimality. In this paper, we restrict our attention to real two dimensional cases, and introduce the…
We study d-minimal expansions of ordered fields, and dense pairs thereof. We also consider other generalizations of o-minimality.
In this article, we prove that for a definable set in an o-minimal structure with connected link (at 0 or infinity), the inner distance of the link is equivalent to the inner distance of the set restricted to the link. With this result, we…
Starting from the hypothesis that both physics, in particular space-time and the physical vacuum, and the corresponding mathematics are discrete on the Planck scale we develop a certain framework in form of a class of ' cellular networks'…
We regard the classification of rational homotopy types as a problem in algebraic deformation theory: any space with given cohomology is a perturbation, or deformation, of the "formal" space with that cohomology. The classifying space is…
Compact sets in constructive mathematics capture our intuition of what computable subsets of the plane (or any other complete metric space) ought to be. A good representation of compact sets provides an efficient means of creating and…
We demonstrate the following uniform local definable cell decomposition theorem in this paper. Consider a structure $\mathcal M = (M, <,0,+, \ldots)$ elementarily equivalent to a locally o-minimal expansion of the group of reals $(\mathbb…
