To treat infinite families of convex definable subgroups, we will add new sorts to Lqe (called “auxiliary sorts”) with canonical parameters for some of them; let us write Gα for the group corresponding to the canonical parameter α.
Quantifier elimination in ordered abelian groups
Note that all of Lqe will be Loag -definable (where new sorts in Lqe are considered as imaginary sorts of Loag ).
Quantifier elimination in ordered abelian groups
We start by introducing the new sorts of Lqe : sorts with canonical parameters for some definable families of convex subgroups.
Quantifier elimination in ordered abelian groups
These new sorts will be called auxiliary sorts ; in contrast, the sort of the ordered abelian group itself will be called the main sort.
Quantifier elimination in ordered abelian groups
Definability (in Loag ) of the groups Gα , α ∈ Sn is proven in Lemma 2.1; once this is done, it is clear that the new sorts are imaginary sorts of Loag and that all of the above is definable.
