Abstract: We prove the following theorem: let widetildemathcalR be an expansion of the real field overlinemathbbR, such that every definable set (I) is a uniform countable union of semialgebraic sets, and (II) contains a "semialgebraic chunk". Then every definable smooth function f:XsubseteqmathbbRnomathbbR with open semialgebraic domain is semialgebraic. Conditions (I) and (II) hold for various d-minimal expansions widetildemathcalR=langleoverlinemathbbR,Pangle of the real field, such as when P=2mathbbZ, or PsubseteqmathbbR is an iteration sequence. A generalization of the theorem to d-minimal expansions widetildemathcalR of mathbbRan fails. On the other hand, we prove our theorem for expansionswidetildemathcalR of arbitrary real closed fields. Moreover, its conclusion holds for certain structures with d-minimal open core, such as langleoverlinemathbbR,mathbbRalg,2mathbbZangle.
