In this paper we give an explicit characterization of o-minimal structures with definable Skolem functions/definable choice. Such structures are, after naming finitely many elements from the prime model, a union of finitely many trivial points each defined over ∅ and finitely many open intervals each a union of a ∅-definable family of group-intervals with fixed positive elements.

In this paper we propose a new approach to realizability interpretations for nonstandard arithmetic. We deal with nonstandard analysis in the context of (semi)intuitionistic realizability, focusing on the Lightstone-Robinson construction of a model for nonstandard analysis through an ultrapower. In particular, we consider an extension of the $\lambda$-calculus with a memory cell, that contains an integer (the state), in order to indicate in which slice of the ultrapower $\cal{M}^{\mathbb{N}}$ the computation is being done. We pay attention to the nonstandard principles (and their computational content) obtainable in this setting. In particular, we give non-trivial realizers to Idealization and a non-standard version of the LLPO principle. We then discuss how to quotient this product to mimic the Lightstone-Robinson construction.
