The density of algebraic points in sets definable in o-minimal structures

This thesis concerns the study of the density of rational and algebraic points in the transcendental part of sets that are definable in o-minimal structures. An o-minimal version of a reparametrisation result of Yosef Yomdin is proved, Yomdin's result being the prototype of a result used to pro...
