Transasymptotic expansions of o-minimal germs (2402.12073v2)

Abstract: Given an o-minimal expansion $\mathbb{R}{\mathcal{A}}$ of the real ordered field, generated by a generalized quasianalytic class $\mathcal{A}$, we construct an explicit truncation closed ordered differential field embedding of the Hardy field of the expansion $\mathbb{R}{\mathcal{A},\exp}$ of $\mathbb{R}{\mathcal{A}}$ by the unrestricted exponential function, into the field $\mathbb{T}$ of transseries. We use this to prove some non-definability results. In particular, we show that the restriction to the positive half-line of Euler's Gamma function is not definable in the structure $\mathbb{R}{\text{an}^{*},\exp}$, generated by all convergent generalized power series and the exponential function, thus establishing the non-interdefinability of the restrictions to a neighbourhood of $+\infty$ of Euler's Gamma and of the Riemann Zeta function.
