We prove the existence of Verdier stratifications for sets definable in any o-minimal structure on (R, +, .). It is also shown that the Verdier condition (w) implies the Whitney condition (b) in o-minimal structures on (R, +, .). As a consequence the Whitney Stratification Theorem holds. The existence of (wf)-stratific…

O-minimal geometry generalizes both semialgebraic and subanalytic geometries, and has been very successful in solving special cases of some problems in arithmetic geometry, such as André-Oort conjecture. Among the many tools developed in an o-minimal setting are cohomology theories for abstract-definable continuous man…

Paper studies planar extensions in o-minimal structures.

We expose some ideas from mathematical logics, i.e. the background of the theory of o-minimal structures, and demonstrate how they lead to the notion of a tame integral of motion and some extensions and clarifications of previous results on obstructions to integrability of geodesic flows.

Arguments on PL,(=piecewise linear) topology work over any ordered field in the same way as over the real field, and those on differential topology do over a real closed field R in an o-minimal structure that expands (R,<,0,1,+,cdot). One of the most fundamental properties of definable sets is that a compact definable …

New findings show modern neural networks have finite sample complexity in o-minimal structures.

We prove that a theorem of Pawlucki, showing that Whitney regularity for a subanalytic set with a smooth singular locus of codimension one implies the set is a finite union of differentiable manifolds with boundary, applies to definable sets in polynomially bounded o-minimal structures. We give a refined version of Paw…

The paper extends a link criterion for Lipschitz normal embeddings to definable sets in o-minimal structures.

We define the spaces of Schwartz functions, tempered functions and tempered distributions on manifolds definable in polynomially bounded o-minimal structures. We show that all the classical properties that these spaces have in the Nash category, as first studied in Fokko du Cloux's work, also hold in this generalized s…

We give a geometric proof of existence of Whitney stratifications of definable sets in o-minimal structures.

Gradient flows of neural networks converge to optimal values or diverge, with thresholds and asymptotic behaviors.

Deep learning models viewed through tame geometry for convergence guarantees.

Defines smoothness of definable sets in o-minimal structures.

We present a short complete proof of the existence of the normal cycle of a compact subanalytic set. The approach is inspired by some old ides of Joseph Fu, uses Morse theoretic techniques and $o$-minimal topology.

We clarify measurability assumptions in the agnostic PAC learning theorem.

In [5] I solved the Thom's conjecture that a proper Thom map is triangulable. In this paper I drop the properness condition in the semialgebraic case and, moreover, in the definable case in an o-minimal structure.

The paper links set cuspidality to function regularity and flatness.

In this paper we present some bounds of Hausdorff measures of objects definable in o-minimal structures: sets, fibers of maps, inverse images of curves of maps, etc. Moreover, we also give some explicit bounds for semi-algebraic or semi-Pfaffian cases, which depend only on the combinatoric data representing the objects…

In this paper we prove the following results: $1)$ We show that any arithmetic quotient of a homogeneous space admits a natural real semi-algebraic structure for which its Hecke correspondences are semi-algebraic. A particularly important example is given by Hodge varieties, which parametrize pure polarized integral Ho…

We give several versions of local and global inverse mapping theorem for tame non necessarily smooth, mappings. Here tame mapping means a mapping which is subanalytic or, more generally, definable in some o-minimal structure. Our sufficient conditions are formulated in terms of various properties (convexity, positivity…

The paper explains how continuous language models can produce discrete, interpretable meanings.

We present a definable smooth version of the Thom transversality theorem. We show further that the set of non-transverse definable smooth maps is nowhere dense in the definable smooth topology. Finally, we prove a definable version of a theorem of Trotman which says that the Whitney $(a)$-regularity of a stratification…

Let R be an o-minimal expansion of the real field. We introduce a class of Hausdorff limits, the T-infinity limits over R, that do not in general fall under the scope of Marker and Steinhorn's definability-of-types theorem. We prove that if R admits analytic cell decomposition, then every T-infinity limit over R is def…

We prove a definable version of the Whitney embedding theorem for abstract-definable $\mathcal{C}^p$ manifolds with $1\leq p<\infty$, namely: every abstract-definable $\mathcal{C}^p$ manifold is abstract-definable $C^p$ embedded into $R^N$, for some positive integer $N$. As a consequence, we show that every abstract-de…

In this paper we investigate how germs of real functions can change under deformation. In particular we look at deformations of germs of isolated singularities from R_n to R_k (n >= k) and the relation with there natural stratification in some tame categorie (algebraic, analytic, semi-algebraic, subanalytic, o-minimal …

We relate the Lipschitz-Killing measures of a definable set $X \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ in an o-minimal structure to the volumes of generic polar images. For smooth submanifolds of $\mathbb{R}^n$, such results were established by Langevin and Shifrin.Then we give infinitesimal versions of these results. As a corollary, we…

Deep networks converge in direction, with implications for predictions and margins.

Stochastic subgradient descent avoids critical points in definable functions.

Euler calculus is based on integrating simple functions with respect to the Euler characteristic. This paper makes the case for extending Euler calculus to continuous integrands by integrating with respect to (Gaussian) curvature. This requires a metric but is nevertheless defined within any O-minimal theory. It satisf…

We prove that the uniformizing map of any arithmetic quotient, as well as the period map associated to any pure polarized $\mathbb{Z}$-variation of Hodge structure $\mathbb{V}$ on a smooth complex quasi-projective variety $S$, are topologically tame. As an easy corollary of these results and of Peterzil-Starchenko's o-…

A coordinate cone in R^n is an intersection of some coordinate hyperplanes and open coordinate half-spaces. A semi-monotone set is a defnable in an o-minimal structure over the reals, open bounded subset of R^n such that its intersection with any translation of any coordinate cone is connected. This can be viewed as a …

Let $X\subset \mathbb R^n$ be a connected locally closed definable set in an o-minimal structure. We prove that the following three statements are equivalent: (i) $X$ is a $C^1$ manifold, (ii) the tangent cone and the paratangent cone of $X$ coincide at every point in $X$, (iii) for every $x \in X$, the tangent cone of…

New Euler characteristics for groupoids generalize orbifold Euler characteristics.

Let ${\mathcal S}(\R)$ be an o-minimal structure over $\R$, $T \subset \R^{k_1+k_2+\ell}$ a closed definable set, and $$ \displaylines{π_1: \R^{k_1+k_2+\ell}\to \R^{k_1 + k_2}, π_2: \R^{k_1+k_2+\ell}\to \R^{\ell}, \ π_3: \R^{k_1 + k_2} \to \R^{k_2}} $$ the projection maps. For any collection ${\mathcal A} = \{A_1,...,A…

Consider a transitive action of a Lie group $G$ on a (real analytic) manifold $M$ of dimension $m$, and two (embedded) submanifolds $A$ and $B$ in $M$ of sufficiently large class and of dimension $k$ and $l$, respectively. We prove that, for a generic $σ\in G$, the intersection $σ(A) \cap B$ is transversal, whence a su…

Let R be an o-minimal expansion of the real field, and let L(R) be the language consisting of all nested Rolle leaves over R. We call a set nested subpfaffian over R if it is the projection of a boolean combination of definable sets and nested Rolle leaves over R. Assuming that R admits analytic cell decomposition, we …

In [S. Basu, A. Gabrielov, N. Vorobjov, Semi-monotone sets. arXiv:1004.5047v2 (2011)] we defined semi-monotone sets, as open bounded sets, definable in an o-minimal structure over the reals, and having connected intersections with all translated coordinate cones in R^n. In this paper we develop this theory further by d…

Hilbert initiated the standpoint in foundations of mathematics. From this standpoint, we allow only a finite number of repetitions of elementary operations when we construct objects and morphisms. When we start from a subset of a Euclidean space. Then we assume that any element of the line has only a finite number of c…

Let g:X -> Y be a smooth (i.e. C^\infty differentiable) map between two smooth manifolds. In analogy with the case of complex polynomial functions, we say that y_0 in Y is a typical value of g if there exists an open neighbourhood U of y_0 in Y, such that the restriction g:g^{-1}(U) -> U is a C^\infty trivial fibration…

Grothendieck's Esquisse d'un programme is often referred to for the ideas it contains on dessins d'enfants, the Teichm{ü}ller tower, and the actions of the absolute Galois group on these objects or their etale fundamental groups. But this program contains several other important ideas. In particular, motivated by surfa…

Let $Y\subset{\mathbb R}^n$ be a triangulable set and let $r$ be either a positive integer or $r=\infty$. We say that $Y$ is a $\mathscr{C}^r$-approximation target space, or a $\mathscr{C}^r\text{-}\mathtt{ats}$ for short, if it has the following universal approximation property: For each $m\in{\mathbb N}$ and each loc…
