A note on o-minimal flows and the Ax-Lindemann-Weierstrass theorem for semi-abelian varieties over \(\mathbb{C}\) (Q1624909)

Summary: In this short note we present an elementary proof of Theorem 1.2 from [\textit{E. Ullmo} and \textit{A. Yafaev}, Q. J. Math. 68, No. 2, 359--367 (2017; Zbl 1386.14165)], and also the Ax-Lindemann-Weierstrass theorem for abelian and semi-abelian varieties. The proof uses ideas of Pila, Ullmo, Yafaev, Zannier (see, e.g., [\textit{J. Pila} and \textit{U. Zannier}, Atti Accad. Naz. Lincei, Cl. Sci. Fis. Mat. Nat., IX. Ser., Rend. Lincei, Mat. Appl. 19, No. 2, 149--162 (2008; Zbl 1164.11029)]) and is based on basic properties of sets definable in o-minimal structures. It does not use the Pila-Wilkie counting theorem.
