edit: corrections of 2 mistakes indicated in comments
Apr 20, 2016 at 15:15 comment added Mikhail Katz @ACL, I take it you mean to take a complex analytic subset of $\mathbb{C}^n$.
Apr 20, 2016 at 15:12 comment added Emil Jeřábek Definable functions needn’t be piecewise $C^\infty$. They are piecewise $C^k$ for every finite $k$, but you may need finer and finer pieces as $k$ gets larger. See the comments at mathoverflow.net/questions/234337 .
Apr 20, 2016 at 15:01 comment added ACL It is not clear to me that this requirement in Grothendieck's esquisse (“passing from $X$ to $\mathop{\rm Aut}(X)$ leaves the world of finite dimensional spaces”, he says) is satisfied by o-minimal geometry. At least not obviously.
Apr 20, 2016 at 14:59 comment added Mikhail Katz I take it the collection of all definable functions between fixed source and target is also definable? This would answer Grothendieck's dream and should probably be mentioned in the answer.

add: complex algebraic in the statement of Peterzil-Starchenko
Apr 20, 2016 at 14:57 comment added ACL non, complex algebraic! I'll edit!
Apr 20, 2016 at 14:48 comment added Mikhail Katz The conclusion of Petezil-Starchenko is real-algebraic?
Apr 20, 2016 at 14:46 comment added Mikhail Katz The commands \\[ and \\] don't work at MO.
