We show that for $G$ a simple compact Lie group, the infinitesimal subgroup $G^{00}$ is bi-intepretable with a real closed valued field. We deduce that for $G$ an infinite definably compact group definable in an o-minimal expansion of a…

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 that in a continuous $\aleph_0$-stable theory every type-definable group is definable. The two main ingredients in the proof are: \begin{enumerate} \item Results concerning Morley ranks (i.e., Cantor-Bendixson ranks) from…

We study the algebraic implications of the non-independence property (NIP) and variants thereof (dp-minimality) on infinite fields, motivated by the conjecture that all such fields which are neither real closed nor separably closed admit a…

We prove that definable ring topologies on NIP fields are closely connected to NIP integral domains. More precisely, we show that up to elementary equivalence, any NIP topological field arises from an NIP integral domain. As an application,…

We prove the following instance of a conjecture stated in arXiv:1103.4770. Let $G$ be an abelian semialgebraic group over a real closed field $R$ and let $X$ be a semialgebraic subset of $G$. Then the group generated by $X$ contains a…

We use a generalization of a construction by Ziegler to show that for any field $F$ and any countable collection of countable subsets $A_i \subseteq F, i \in \calI \subset \Z_{>0}$ there exist infinitely many fields $K$ of arbitrary…

We prove an assortment of results on (commutative and unital) NIP rings, especially $\mathbb{F}_p$-algebras. Let $R$ be a NIP ring. Then every prime ideal or radical ideal of $R$ is externally definable, and every localization $S^{-1}R$ is…

It is known that a definably compact group G is an extension of a compact Lie group L by a divisible torsion-free normal subgroup. We show that the o-minimal higher homotopy groups of G are isomorphic to the corresponding higher homotopy…

Answering a special case of a question of Chernikov and Simon, we show that any non-dividing formula over a model M in a distal NIP theory is a member of a consistent definable family, definable over M.

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…

We prove generic differentiability in $P$-minimal theories, strengthening an earlier result of Kuijpers and Leenknegt. Using this, we prove Onshuus and Pillay's $P$-minimal analogue of Pillay's conjectures on o-minimal groups. Specifically,…
