    Definable and invariant types in enrichments of NIP theories

    Full text link
    Let T be an NIP L-theory and T' be an enrichment. We give a sufficient condition on T' for the underlying L-type of any definable (respectively invariant) type over a model of T' to be definable (respectively invariant) as an L-type. Besides, we generalise work of Simon and Starchenko on the density of definable types among non forking types to this relative setting. These results are then applied to Scanlon's model completion of valued differential fields.Comment: 9 pages. An error was pointed out in section 2 of the previous version so that section was removed.

    Towards a Model Theory for Transseries

    Full text link
    The differential field of transseries extends the field of real Laurent series, and occurs in various context: asymptotic expansions, analytic vector fields, o-minimal structures, to name a few. We give an overview of the algebraic and model-theoretic aspects of this differential field, and report on our efforts to understand its first-order theory.Comment: Notre Dame J. Form.

    Imaginaries in separably closed valued fields

    Full text link
    We show that separably closed valued fields of finite imperfection degree (either with lambda-functions or commuting Hasse derivations) eliminate imaginaries in the geometric language. We then use this classification of interpretable sets to study stably dominated types in those structures. We show that separably closed valued fields of finite imperfection degree are metastable and that the space of stably dominated types is strict pro-definable
