The restrained-structure dichotomy conjecture

A restrained structure is a DC expansion of an ordered field such that, for every definable discrete set DKnD \subseteq \mathbb K^n and every definable function g:DKg:D\to\mathbb K, the image g(D)g(D) is nowhere dense in K\mathbb K. A structure defines a discrete subring if it defines a subring of K\mathbb K containing 11 whose underlying set is discrete. The restrained-structure dichotomy conjecture. Either K\mathbb K is restrained, or it defines a discrete subring containing 11. The claim proposes a dichotomy between restrained tame behavior and the presence of a discrete arithmetic-like subring; no resolution is supplied in the source.
