Morse functions definable in d-minimal structures

Abstract

Fix a d-minimal expansion of an ordered field. We consider the space $\mathcal D^p(M)$ of definable $\mathcal C^p$ functions defined on a definable $\mathcal C^p$ submanifold $M$ equipped with definable $\mathcal C^p$ topology. The set of definable $\mathcal C^p$ Morse functions is dense in $\mathcal D^p(M)$.
