Review text

In a previous paper [Bull. Symb. Log. 8, No. 2, 283--298 (2002; Zbl 1060.03051)], the authors, together with \textit{I. Ben-Yaacov}, showed how to construct a group from a group configuration in simple theories. Indeed, \textit{I. Ben-Yaacov} had already developed a suitable theory of germs of generic functions in simple settings [J. Symb. Log. 67, No. 4, 1581--1600 (2002; Zbl 1043.03029)], producing from a group configuration a generic polygroup chunk (meaning a generic group chunk where the product is defined up to a bounded set of possible values) and an associated multivalued version of a generic group action. Then, in the mentioned joint paper with Ben-Yaacov, the authors provided a construction turning a generic polygroup chunk in a simple setting into a group. However, in the stable case, any group got from a group configuration is always associated to a transitive and faithful action, but nothing similar is shown in the simple framework by the reference above. This gap is filled in this paper, constructing a group action even for simple theories. This result is also applied to prove that in an \(\omega\)-categorical theory a finitely based pseudolinear regular type is locally modular, and that the geometry associated to a finitely based locally modular regular type is a projective geometry over a field.
