Abstract

We analyze definably compact groups in o-minimal expansions of ordered groups as a combination of semi-linear groups and groups definable in o-minimal expansions of real closed fields. The analysis involves structure theorems about their locally definable covers. As a corollary, we prove the compact domination conjecture in o-minimal expansions of ordered groups.
