The real field with convergent generalized power series

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

We construct a model complete and o-minimal expansion of the field of real numbers in which each real function given on [0,1] by a series ∑c_nx^αn with 0 ≤ α_n → ∞ and ∑ |c_n|r^αn < ∞ for some r > 1 is definable. This expansion is polynomially bounded.
