The present lecture concerns the notion of weak o-minimality originally studied by H.D. Macpherson, D. Marker and C. Steinhorn in [1]. A weakly o-minimal structure is a linearly ordered structure \(M=\langle M,=,<,\ldots \rangle\) such that any definable (with parameters) subset of \(M\) is a finite union of convex sets in \(M\).

Quite o-minimal theories were introduced in [2]. Let \(T\) be a weakly o-minimal theory, \(M\models T\), \(A\subseteq M\), \(p,q\in S_1(A)\) non-algebraic. We say that \(p\) is quite orthogonal to \(q\) (\(p\perp^q q\)) if there is no \(A\)–definable bijection \(f: p(M)\to q(M)\). We say that a weakly o-minimal theory is quite o-minimal if the notions of weak and quite orthogonality coincide for 1-types over arbitrary subsets of models of the given theory.

Theorem. Let \(T\) be a quite o-minimal Ehrenfeucht theory, \(M\) be a countable saturated model of \(T\). Then for every \(n<\omega\) and any \(\bar a=\langle a_1, \ldots, a_n\rangle \in M\) the theory \(T_1=Th(\langle M, \bar a\rangle)\) also is quite o-minimal and Ehrenfeucht. Moreover:

\((1)\) if each \(a_i\) is a realization of an isolated or quasirational 1-type over \(\emptyset\) then \(I(T_1,\omega)=I(T, \omega)\);

\((2)\) if there exist \(1\le s\le n\) and \(1\le i_1<i_2<\ldots <i_s\le n\) such that \(a_{i_t}\) is a realization of an irrational 1-type \(p_{i_t}\) over \(\emptyset\) for each \(1\le t\le s\) and the remaining \(a_w\) (i.e. \(w\ne i_t\) for each \(1\le t\le s\)) are realizations of isolated or quasirational 1-types over \(\emptyset\) then \(I(T_1, \omega)=6^{m_T-l}3^{k_T+2l}\), where \(l=\dim\{p_{i_1}, p_{i_2}, \ldots, p_{i_s}\}\).
