First, the code of a definable <em>n</em>-type (in the field sort) can be taken to be a real tuple (in the field sort) rather than an imaginary tuple (in the geometric sorts). Second, any definable type in the real or imaginary sorts is generated by a countable union of chains parameterized by the value group. Third, if <em>X</em> is an interpretable set, then the space of global definable types on <em>X</em> is strictly pro-interpretable, building off work of Cubides Kovacsics, Hils, and Ye <span>[7]</span>, <span>[8]</span>. Fourth, global definable types can be lifted (in a non-canonical way) along interpretable surjections. Fifth, if <em>G</em> is a definable group with definable f-generics (<em>dfg</em>), and <em>G</em> acts on a definable set <em>X</em>, then the quotient space <span><math><mi>X</mi><mo>/</mo><mi>G</mi></math></span> is definable, not just interpretable. This explains some phenomena observed by Pillay and Yao <span>[24]</span>. Lastly, we show that interpretable topological spaces satisfy analogues of first-countability and curve selection. Using this, we show that all reasonable notions of definable compactness agree on interpretable topological spaces, and that definable compactness is definable in families.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":50762,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Pure and Applied Logic","volume":"175 10","pages":"Article 103484"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2024-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141325305","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
