    Notes on definably complete locally o-minimal expansions of ordered groups

    Full text link
    We study definably complete locally o-minimal expansions of ordered groups in this paper. A definable continuous function defined on a closed, bounded and definable set behave like a continuous function on a compact set. We demonstrate uniform continuity of a definable continuous function on a closed, bounded and definable set and Arzela-Ascoli-type theorem. We propose a notion of special submanifolds with tubular neighborhoods and show that any definable set is decomposed into finitely many special submanifolds with tubular neighborhoods.Comment: arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:2010.0242

    Continuous first order logic and local stability

    Full text link
    We develop continuous first order logic, a variant of the logic described in \cite{Chang-Keisler:ContinuousModelTheory}. We show that this logic has the same power of expression as the framework of open Hausdorff cats, and as such extends Henson's logic for Banach space structures. We conclude with the development of local stability, for which this logic is particularly well-suited

    Non-archimedean tame topology and stably dominated types

    Full text link
    Let VV be a quasi-projective algebraic variety over a non-archimedean valued field. We introduce topological methods into the model theory of valued fields, define an analogue V^\hat {V} of the Berkovich analytification VanV^{an} of VV, and deduce several new results on Berkovich spaces from it. In particular we show that VanV^{an} retracts to a finite simplicial complex and is locally contractible, without any smoothness assumption on VV. When VV varies in an algebraic family, we show that the homotopy type of VanV^{an} takes only a finite number of values. The space V^\hat {V} is obtained by defining a topology on the pro-definable set of stably dominated types on VV. The key result is the construction of a pro-definable strong retraction of V^\hat {V} to an o-minimal subspace, the skeleton, definably homeomorphic to a space definable over the value group with its piecewise linear structure.Comment: Final versio
