On the number of solutions of an algebraic equation on the curve 𝑦=𝑒^{𝑥}+sin𝑥,𝑥>0, and a consequence for o-minimal structures

Abstract: Abstract. We prove that every polynomial P (x, y) of degree d has at most 2(d + 2) 12 zeros on the curve y = e x + sin(x), x > 0. As a consequence we deduce that the existence of a uniform bound for the number of zeros of polynomials of a fixed degree on an analytic curve does not imply that this curve belongs to an o-minimal structure. Main resultThe aim of this note is to estimate the number of real solutions of the systemwhere P (x, y) is a non-zero polynomial of degree d. As we prove below we have the foll… Show more

“…A result can be formulated for any real analytic (or even smooth) function f with suitable finiteness properties (zeros of derivatives, derivatives of the inverse, and algebraic relations). An example of such a function that is not Pfaffian is exhibited in [4]. (Indeed, the given example e x + sin x does not belong to any o-minimal structure (see [4]). )…”

“…While the polynomial method has yielded impressive results, its reliance on Bézout's Theorem limits its scope to questions about algebraic and semialgebraic sets. If one tries to generalize it to sets definable in o-minimal structures other than real closed fields, Bézout's theorem can fail [16]. The cutting lemma method, however, can be generalized to more complicated sets using the language of model theory.…”
