For a given d-minimal expansion $\mathfrak R$ of the ordered real field, we consider the expansion $\mathfrak R^\natural$ of $\mathfrak R$ generated by the sets of the form $\bigcup_{S \in \mathcal C}S$, where $\mathcal C$ is a subfamily of…
We consider the model theoretic notion of convex orderability, which fits strictly between the notions of VC-minimality and dp-minimality. In some classes of algebraic theories, however, we show that convex orderability and VC-minimality…
We study definable sets, groups, and fields in the theory $T_\infty$ of infinite-dimensional vector spaces over an algebraically closed field equipped with a nondegenerate symmetric (or alternating) bilinear form. First, we define an…
We give a characteristic free proof of the main result of our previous paper (math.AC/0509697) concerning toroidalization of generating sequences of valuations in dimension two function fields. We show that when an extension of two…
We analyse domination between invariant types in o-minimal expansions of ordered groups, showing that the domination poset decomposes as the direct product of two posets: the domination poset of an o-minimal expansion of a real closed…
The notion of symmetry in polynomial rings with several indeterminates is generalized to polynomial rings over finite fields. Families of extensions of the projective line over a finite field of constants possessing this property are…
We study the definability of convex valuations on ordered fields, with a particular focus on the distinguished subclass of henselian valuations. In the setting of ordered fields, one can consider definability both in the language of rings…
This is the second installment of a series of papers aimed at developing a theory of Hrushovski-Kazhdan style motivic integration for certain types of nonarchimedean $o$-minimal fields, namely power-bounded $T$-convex valued fields, and…
We continue the study of a class of topological $\mathcal{L}$-fields endowed with a generic derivation $\delta$, focussing on describing definable groups. We show that one can associate to an $\mathcal{L}_{\delta}$ definable group a type…
Thamrongthanyalak demonstrated a definable version of Michael's selection theorem in d-minimal expansions of the real field. We generalize this result to the case in which the structures are d-minimal expansions of ordered fields $\mathcal…
Consider a definable complete d-minimal expansion $(F, <, +, \cdot, 0, 1, \dots,)$ of an oredered field $F$. Let $X$ be a definably compact definably normal definable $C^r$ manifold and $2 \le r <\infty$. We prove that the set of definable…
Let N be an o-minimal expansion of a real closed field. We develop cohomology theory for the category of N-definable manifolds and N-definable maps, and use this to solve the Peterzil-Steinhorn problem on the existence of torsion points on…
We explore "semibounded" expansions of arbitrary ordered groups; namely, expansions that do not define a field on the whole universe. We show that if $\mathcal R=\langle R, <, +, \dots\rangle$ is a semibounded o-minimal structure and…
We investigate distality and existence of distal expansions in valued fields and related structures. In particular, we characterize distality in a large class of ordered abelian groups, provide an AKE-style characterization for henselian…
We state conditions for which a definable local homomorphism between two locally definable groups $\mathcal{G}$, $\mathcal{G^{\prime}}$ can be uniquely extended when $\mathcal{G}$ is simply connected (Theorem 2.1). As an application of this…
Local fields, and fields complete with respect to a discrete valuation, are essential objects in commutative algebra, with applications to number theory and algebraic geometry. We formalize in Lean the basic theory of discretely valued…
This work can be thought as a contribution to the model theory of group extensions. We study the groups G which are interpretable in the disjoint union of two structures (seen as a two-sorted structure). We show that if one of the two…
O-minimal geometry generalizes both semialgebraic and subanalytic geometries, and has been very successful in solving special cases of some problems in arithmetic geometry, such as Andr\'e-Oort conjecture. Among the many tools developed in…
We introduce Thompson field theory, a class of toy models of conformal field theory in which Thompson's group T takes the role of a discrete analogue of the chiral conformal group. T and the related group F are discrete transformations of…
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…
