The inverse function theorem also holds over a [[real closed field]] ''k'' (or an [[O-minimal structure]]).<ref>Theorem 2.11. in {{cite book |doi=10.1017/CBO9780511525919|title=Tame Topology and O-minimal Structures.

The usual proof of the IFT uses Banach's fixed point theorem, which relies on the Cauchy completeness. That part of the argument is replaced by the use of the [[extreme value theorem]], which does not need completeness. Explicitly, in {{section link||A_proof_using_the_contraction_mapping_principle}}, the Cauchy completeness is used only to establish the inclusion <math>B(0, r/2) \subset f(B(0, r))</math>. We shall directly show <math>B(0, r/4) \subset f(B(0, r))</math> instead. Given a point <math>y</math> in <math>B(0, r/4)</math>, consider the function <math>P(x) = |f(x) - y|^2</math> defined on <math>B(0, r)</math>. If <math>P'(x) = 0</math>, then <math>0 = P'(x) = 2[f_1(x) - y_1 \cdots f_n(x) - y_n]f'(x)</math> and so <math>f(x) = y</math>, since <math>f'(x)</math> is invertible. Now, by the extreme value theorem, <math>P</math> admits a minimal at some point <math>x_0</math> on the closed ball <math>\overline{B}(0, r)</math>, which can be shown to lie in <math>B(0, r)</math> using <math>2^{-1}|x
