Monotone $T$-convex $T$-differential fields

Elliot Kaplan and Nigel Pynn-Coates

Vol. 4 (2025), No. 1, 55–100
Abstract

Let T be a complete, model complete o-minimal theory extending the theory of real closed ordered fields and assume that T is power bounded. Let K be a model of T equipped with a T-convex valuation ring 𝒪 and a T-derivation such that is monotone, i.e., weakly contractive with respect to the valuation induced by 𝒪. We show that the theory of monotone T-convex T-differential fields, i.e., the common theory of such K, has a model completion which is complete and distal. Among the axioms of this model completion, we isolate an analogue of henselianity that we call T-henselianity. We establish an Ax–Kochen/Ershov theorem and further results for monotone T-convex T-differential fields that are T-henselian.
