Wilkie's conjecture for restricted elementary functions

Abstract

We consider the structure RRE{\mathbb R}^{\mathrm{RE}} obtained from (R,<,+,)({\mathbb R},<,+,\cdot) by adjoining the restricted exponential and sine functions. We prove Wilkie's conjecture for sets definable in this structure: the number of rational points of height HH in the transcendental part of any definable set is bounded by a polynomial in logH\log H. We also prove two refined conjectures due to Pila concerning the density of algebraic points from a fixed number field, or with a fixed algebraic degree, for RRE{\mathbb R}^{\mathrm{RE}}-definable sets.
