In April 2016 Manchester eScholar was replaced by the University of Manchester’s new Research Information Management System, Pure. In the autumn the University’s research outputs will be available to search and browse via a new Research Portal. Until then the University’s full publication record can be accessed via a temporary portal and the old eScholar content is available to search and browse via this archive.

Abstract

Given an o-minimal structure on the real field, we consider an elementary extension to a non-archimedean field R, and interpret the algebraically closed field K=R[sqrt(-1)] on this extension. We construct two pregeometries on K: one by considering images under C-definable holomorphic functions, and the other by considering images under proper restrictions of C-definable holomorphic functions together with algebraic functions (i.e. zeros of polynomials).We show that these two pregeometries are the same, generalising a result of A. Wilkie for complex holomorphic functions. We also do some work towards generalising another result of his on local definability of complex holomorphic functions to our non-archimedean setting.
