Sum-product Phenomenon Via Dimension

Yuyan He, Sergei Starchenko

We show a sum-product phenomenon in fields equipped with abstract dimension theories, which simultaneously generalizes the dimensions in geometric theories and Hrushovski's coarse…

Combinatorics in one-based and related structures

Artem Chernikov, Sergei Starchenko

We consider some extremal combinatorial questions for bipartite graphs definable in stable one-based (and related) structures. We show that they satisfy both strong Erdős-Hajnal pr…

Limits of definable families and dilations in nilmanifolds

Ya'acov Peterzil, Sergei Starchenko

Let be a unipotent group and a family of subsets of , with definable in an o-minimal expansion of the real field. Given a l…

Model-theoretic Elekes-Szabó for stable and o-minimal hypergraphs

Artem Chernikov, Ya'acov Peterzil, Sergei Starchenko

A theorem of Elekes and Szabó recognizes algebraic groups among certain complex algebraic varieties with maximal size intersections with finite grids. We establish a generalization…

Zarankiewicz's problem for semilinear hypergraphs

Abdul Basit, Artem Chernikov, Sergei Starchenko +2

A bipartite graph with is semilinear if for some and the edge relation consists of th…

Peterzil-Steinhorn subgroups and -stabilizers in ACF

Moshe Kamensky, Sergei Starchenko, Jinhe Ye

We consider , a linear group defined over , an algebraically closed field. By considering as an embedded residue field of an algebraically closed valued field , we can…

Model-theoretic Elekes-Szabó in the strongly minimal case

Artem Chernikov, Sergei Starchenko

We prove a generalizations of the Elekes-Szabó theorem for relations definable in strongly minimal structures that are interpretable in distal structures.

Algebraic and o-minimal flows on complex and real tori

Ya'acov Peterzil, Sergei Starchenko

We consider the covering map of a compact complex torus. Given an algebraic variety we describe the topological closure of…

Cutting lemma and Zarankiewicz's problem in distal structures

Artem Chernikov, David Galvin, Sergei Starchenko

We establish a cutting lemma for definable families of sets in distal structures, as well as the optimality of the distal cell decomposition for definable families of sets on the p…

A note on o-minimal flows and the Ax--Lindemann--Weierstrass theorem for abelian varieties over

Ya'acov Peterzil, Sergei Starchenko

In this short note we present an elementary proof of the Ax-Lindemann-Weierstrass theorem for abelian and semi-abelian varieties. The proof uses ideas of Pila, Ullmo, Yafaev, Zanni…

Ramsey growth in some NIP structures

Artem Chernikov, Sergei Starchenko, Margaret E. M. Thomas

We investigate bounds in Ramsey's theorem for relations definable in NIP structures. Applying model-theoretic methods to finitary combinatorics, we generalize a theorem of Bukh and…

Definable regularity lemmas for NIP hypergraphs

Artem Chernikov, Sergei Starchenko

We present a systematic study of the regularity phenomena for NIP hypergraphs and connections to the theory of (locally) generically stable measures, providing a model-theoretic hy…

Regularity lemma for distal structures

Artem Chernikov, Sergei Starchenko

It is known that families of graphs with a semialgebraic edge relation of bounded complexity satisfy much stronger regularity properties than arbitrary graphs, and that they can be…

Solvable Lie groups definable in o-minimal theories

Annalisa Conversano, Alf Onshuus, Sergei Starchenko

In this paper we completely characterize solvable real Lie groups definable in o-minimal expansions of the real field.

A note on the Erdős-Hajnal property for stable graphs

Artem Chernikov, Sergei Starchenko

In this short note we provide a relatively simple proof of the Erdős-Hajnal conjecture for families of finite (hyper-)graphs without the -order property. It was originally prove…

Topological groups, μ-types and their stabilizers

Ya'Acov Peterzil, Sergei Starchenko

We consider an arbitrary topological group definable in a structure , such that some basis for the topology of consists of sets definable in . To ea…

On forking and definability of types in some dp-minimal theories

Pierre Simon, Sergei Starchenko

We prove in particular that, in a large class of dp-minimal theories including the p-adics, definable types are dense amongst non-forking types.

Remarks on Tao's algebraic regularity lemma

Anand Pillay, Sergei Starchenko

We give a stability theoretic proof of the algebraic regularity lemma of Tao, making use of a lemma of Hrushovski. We also point out that the underlying results hold at the level o…

M. Aschenbrenner, A. Dolich, D. Haskell +2

We study the Vapnik-Chervonenkis (VC) density of definable families in certain stable first-order theories. In particular we obtain uniform bounds on VC density of definable famili…
