Pro-definability of spaces of definable types

We show pro-definability of spaces of definable types in various classical complete first order theories, including complete o-minimal theories, Presburger arithmetic, $p$-adically closed fields, real closed and algebraically closed valued fields and closed ordered differential fields. Furthermore, we prove pro-definability of other distinguished subspaces, some of which have an interesting geometric interpretation. Our general strategy consists in showing that definable types are uniformly definable, a property which implies pro-definability using an argument due to E. Hrushovski and F. Loeser. Uniform definability of definable types is finally achieved by studying classes of stably embedded pairs.
We divide the original article into two parts. The current update contains the work about uniform definability and pro-definability in different theories. The part concerning strict pro-definability and axiomatization of tame pairs will be updated separately
