Math., Volume 173, (2008) 23-121] to mixed characteristic discretely valued Henselian fields with bounded ramification. We also generalize the equicharacteristic zero case of loc. cit. by giving, in all residue characteristics, an axiomatic approach (instead of only using Denef-Pas languages) and by using

We prove that the local density of such sets at each of their points does exist. We then introduce the notion of distinguished tangent cone with respect to some open subgroup with finite index

In particular, once the fundamental lemma has been established for one collection of fields (for example, fields

We characterize this property in terms of ergodic measure-preserving actions.

To accomplish this, we introduce a general framework for Henselian valued fields K with analytic structure, and we investigate the structure of analytic functions in one variable, defined on annuli over K. We also prove that, after parameterization, definable analytic functions are given by terms.

Loeser [Fonctions constructible et intégration motivic I, Comptes rendus de l'Académie des Sciences, 339 (2004) 411 -416] on motivic integration, we develop a direct image formalism for positive constructible functions in the globally subanalytic context. This formalism is generalized to arbitrary first-order logic models and is illustrated by several examples on the p-adics, on the Presburger structure and on o-minimal expansions of groups. Furthermore, within this formalism, we define the Radon transform and prove the corresponding inversion formula. * Supported by a postdoctorial fellowship of the Fund for Scientific Research -Flanders (Belgium) (F.

Research paper thumbnail of b-MINIMALITY

Journal of Mathematical Logic, 2007

The notion is named b-minimality and is based on definable families of points and balls. We develop a dimension theory and prove a cell decomposition theorem for b-minimal structures. We show that b-minimality applies to the theory of Henselian valued fields of characteristic zero, generalizing work by Denef -Pas [25] . Structures which are o-minimal, v-minimal, or p-minimal and which satisfy some slight extra conditions are also b-minimal, but b-minimality leaves more room for nontrivial expansions. The b-minimal setting is intended to be a natural framework for the construction of Euler characteristics and motivic or p-adic integrals. The b-minimal cell decomposition is a generalization of concepts of P. J. Cohen [11], J. Denef , and the link between cell decomposition and integration was first made by Denef .

We prove quantifier elimination and o-minimality in the corresponding language. We extend these constructions and results to rank n ordered fields Rn (the maximal completions of iterated Puiseux series fields). We generalize the example of Hrushovski and Peterzil [HP] of a sentence which is not true in any o-minimal expansion of R (shown in [LR3] to be true in an o-minimal expansion of the Puiseux series field) to a tower of examples of sentences σn, true in Rn, but not true in any o-minimal expansion of any of the fields R, R 1 , . . . , R n−1 .

Reine Angew. Math. 540 (2001) 105–114], it is shown that a p-adic semi-algebraic set can be partitioned in such a way that each part is semi-algebraically isomorphic to a Cartesian product ∏i=1lR(k) where the sets R(k) are very basic subsets of Qp. It is suggested in [R. Cluckers, Classification of semi-algebraic sets up to semi-algebraic bijection, J. Reine Angew. Math. 540 (2001) 105–114] that this result can be adapted to become useful to p-adic integration theory, by controlling the Jacobians of the occurring isomorphisms. In this paper we show that the isomorphisms can be chosen in such a way that the valuations of their Jacobians equal the valuations of products of coordinate functions, hence obtaining a kind of explicit p-adic resolution of singularities for semi-algebraic p-adic functions. We do this by restricting the used isomorphisms to a few specific types of functions, and by contr...
