Then every definable smooth function $f:X\\subseteq \\mathbb R^n\\to \\mathbb R$ with open semialgebraic domain is semialgebraic. Conditions (I) and (II) hold for various d-minimal expansions $\\widetilde{\\mathcal R} = \\langle \\overline{\\mathbb R}, P\\rangle$ of the real field, such as when $P=2^\\mathbb Z$, or $P\\subseteq \\mathbb R$ is an iteration sequence. A generalization of the theorem to d-minimal expansions $\\widetilde{\\mathcal R}$ of $\\mathbb R_{an}$ fails. On the other hand, we prove our theorem for expansions$\\widetilde{\\mathcal R}$ of arbitrary real closed fields. Moreover, its conclusion holds for certain structures with d-minimal open core, such as $\\langle \\overline{\\mathbb R}, \\mathbb R_{alg}, 2^\\mathbb Z\\rangle$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2018-12-25T18:51:28.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "03C64" ], "keywords": [ "real field", "d-minimal expansions", "arbitrary real closed fields", "d-minimal open core", "open semialgebraic domain" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
