I analyze $\mathcal{O}$-weakly immediate and $\mathcal{O}$-residual types in an o-minimal expansion of an ordered field $\mathbb{E}$, where $\mathcal{O}$ is a convex valuation ring. The main result is a characterization of those exponential…

Assuming Schanuel's conjecture, we prove that the complete theory $T_{\exp}$ of the real exponential field is axiomatized by the axioms of definably complete exponential fields satisfying $\exp' = \exp$. This implies the result of Macintyre…

We prove that over an algebraically closed field there is a representation embedding from the category of classical Kronecker-modules without the simple injective into the category of finite-dimensional modules over any…

We consider the theory of algebraically closed fields of characteristic zero with multivalued operations $x\mapsto x^r$ (raising to powers). It is in fact the theory of equations in exponential sums. In an earlier paper we have described…

We show that, for a certain large class of power-bounded $o$-minimal $\mathcal{L}_T$-theories $T$ whose field of exponents is infinite-dimensional as a vector space over the rationals, any definable set in a $T$-convex valued field…

Kirchberg's Embedding Problem (KEP) asks whether every separable C$^*$ algebra embeds into an ultrapower of the Cuntz algebra $\mathcal{O}_2$. In this paper, we use model theory to show that this conjecture is equivalent to a local…

We show that Zilber's conjecture that complex exponentiation is isomorphic to his pseudo-exponentiation follows from the a priori simpler conjecture that they are elementarily equivalent. An analysis of the first-order types in…

We show a transfer principle for the property that all types realised in a given elementary extension are definable. It can be written as follows: a Henselian valued fields is stably embedded in an elementary extension if and only if its…

Let $\mathbb{T}$ be the differential field of logarithmic-exponential transseries. We show that the expansion of $\mathbb{T}$ by its natural exponential function is model complete and locally o-minimal. We give an axiomatization of the…

Let R be an o-minimal field with a proper convex subring V. We axiomatize the class of all structures (R,V) such that k_ind, the corresponding residue field with structure induced from R via the residue map, is o-minimal. More precisely, in…

We prove that an arbitrary countable dimensional Lie algebra over a field of characteristic $\neq 2$ that is locally of subexponential growth is embeddable in a finitely generated Lie algebra of subexponential growth.

Let R be an o-minimal field and V a proper convex subring with residue field k and standard part (residue) map st: V \to k. Let k_{ind} be the expansion of k by the standard parts of the definable relations in R. We investigate the…

Inspired by Conway's surreal numbers, we study real closed fields whose value group is isomorphic to the additive reduct of the field. We call such fields omega-fields and we prove that any omega-field of bounded Hahn series with real…

This paper provides a first example of a model theoretically well behaved structure consisting of a proper o-minimal expansion of the real field and a dense multiplicative subgroup of finite rank. Under certain Schanuel conditions, a…

A new case of Shelah's eventual categoricity conjecture is established: $\mathbf{Theorem}$ Let $K$ be an AEC with amalgamation. Write $H_2 := \beth_{\left(2^{\beth_{\left(2^{\text{LS} (K)}\right)^+}}\right)^+}$. Assume that $K$ is…

Let M be a polynomially bounded, o-minimal structure with archimedean prime model, for example if M is a real closed field. Let C be a convex and unbounded subset of M. We determine the first order theory of the structure M expanded by the…

We prove a version of a Nullstellensatz for partial exponential fields $(K,E)$, even though the ring of exponential polynomials $K[X_1,\ldots,X_n]^E$ is not a Hilbert ring. We show that under certain natural conditions one can embed an…

Let $K$ be a number field or a function field of characteristic 0. If $K$ is a number field, assume the $abc$-conjecture for $K$. We prove a variant of Zsigmondy's theorem for ramified primes in preimage fields of rational functions in…

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…

In [26], the algebraico-tree-theoretic simplicity hierarchical structure of J. H. Conway's ordered field $\mathbf{No}$ of surreal numbers was brought to the fore and employed to provide necessary and sufficient conditions for an ordered…
