Let $\mathcal M=\langle M, <, +, \dots\rangle$ be an o-minimal expansion of an ordered group, and $P\subseteq M$ a dense set such that certain tameness conditions hold. We introduce the notion of a `product cone' in $\widetilde{\mathcal…
We develop JSJ decomposition theory of pro-p groups.
This thesis presents an alternative to Cantor's theory of cardinality, insofar as that is understood as a theory of set size. The alternative is based on a general theory, ClassSize. ClassSize contains all sentences in the first order…
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…
We take two approaches to classifying the complexity of Presburger models: Scott analysis and degree spectra. In particular, we investigate the possible Scott sentence complexities and possible degree spectra of models of Presburger…
A criterion is given which assures that two p-divisible groups X and Y over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p are isomorphic when their p-kernels X[p] and Y[p] are isomorphic.
Let $\mathcal{R}$ be an expansion of the ordered real additive group. When $\mathcal{R}$ is o-minimal, it is known that either $\mathcal{R}$ defines an ordered field isomorphic to $(\mathbb{R},<,+,\cdot)$ on some open subinterval…
We study directed sets definable in o-minimal structures, showing that in expansions of ordered fields these admit cofinal definable curves, as well as a suitable analogue in expansions of ordered groups, and furthermore that no analogue…
We prove a model theoretic Baire category theorem for $\tilde\tau_{low}^f$-sets in a countable simple theory in which the extension property is first-order and show some of its applications. We also prove a trichotomy for minimal types in…
We show there are intermediate $P$-minimal structures between the semi-algebraic and sub-analytic languages which do not have definable Skolem functions. As a consequence, by a result of Mourgues, this shows there are $P$-minimal structures…
Without any restrictions on the base field, we compute the hull and prove a conjecture of Eisenbud and Sturmfels giving an unmixed decomposition of a cellular binomial ideal. Over an algebraically closed field, we further obtain an explicit…
We prove several results about p-divisible groups and Rapoport-Zink spaces. Our main goal is to prove that Rapoport-Zink spaces at infinite level are naturally perfectoid spaces, and to give a description of these spaces purely in terms of…
A p-local finite group consists of a finite p-group S, together with a pair of categories which encode ``conjugacy'' relations among subgroups of S, and which are modelled on the fusion in a Sylow p-subgroup of a finite group. It contains…
We introduce a formalism based on a combinatorial notion of cell complex subject to an inclusion-reversing duality operation. Our main goal is to open the way for a functorial definition of field theories in a context where no manifold or…
We study infinite groups interpretable in three families of valued fields: $V$-minimal, power bounded $T$-convex, and $p$-adically closed fields. We show that every such group $G$ has unbounded exponent and that if $G$ is dp-minimal then it…
We show that if $ \mathcal{Z} $ is a dp-minimal expansion of $ \left(\mathbb{Z},+,0,1\right) $ that defines an infinite subset of $ \mathbb{N} $, then $ \mathcal{Z} $ is interdefinable with $ \left(\mathbb{Z},+,0,1, < \right) $. As a…
The theory of small cancellation groups is well known. In this paper we introduce the notion of Group-like Small Cancellation Ring. This is the main result of the paper. We define this ring axiomatically, by generators and defining…
Let $G$ be a multiplicative subgroup of $\mathbb{Q}_p$. In this paper, we describe the theory of the pair $(\mathbb{Q}_p, G)$ under the condition that $G$ satisfies Mann property and is small as subset of a first-order structure. First, we…
In previous work, the authors introduced the notion of Q-Koszul algebras, as a tool to "model" module categories for semisimple algebraic groups over fields of large characteristics. Here we suggest the model extends to small…
We tackle the issue of representing infinite sets of real- valued vectors. This paper introduces an operator for combining integer and real sets. Using this operator, we decompose three well-known logics extending Presburger with reals. Our…
