Dp-minimality is a common generalization of weak minimality and weak
o-minimality. If T is a weakly o-minimal theory then it is dp-minimal
(Fact 2.2), but there are dp-minimal densely ordered groups that
are not weakly o-minimal. We introduce the even more general notion of
inp-minimality and prove that in an inp-minimal densely ordered group,
every definable unary function is a union of finitely many continuous
locally monotonic functions (Theorem 3.2).
