Abstract

Let KK be a field, Ov\mathcal {O}_v a valuation ring of KK associated to a valuation vv: KΓ{}K\rightarrow\Gamma\cup\{\infty\}, and mv{\bf m}_v the unique maximal ideal of Ov\mathcal {O}_v. Consider an ideal I\mathcal {I} of the free KK-algebra KX=KX1,...,XnK\langle X\rangle =K\langle X_1,...,X_n\rangle on X1,...,XnX_1,...,X_n. If I{\cal I} is generated by a subset GOvX\mathcal {G}\subset{\cal O}_v\langle X\rangle which is a monic Gr\"obner basis of I{\cal I} in KXK\langle X\rangle, where OvX=OvX1,...,Xn\mathcal {O}_v\langle X\rangle =\mathcal{O}_v\langle X_1,...,X_n\rangle is the free Ov\mathcal{O}_v-algebra on X1,...,XnX_1,...,X_n, then the valuation vv induces naturally an exhaustive and separated Γ\Gamma-filtration FvAF^vA for the KK-algebra A=KX/IA=K\langle X\rangle /\mathcal {I}, and moreover IOvX=G\mathcal{I}\cap\mathcal{O}_v\langle X\rangle =\langle\mathcal{G}\rangle holds in OvX\mathcal{O}_v\langle X\rangle; it follows that, if furthermore G⊄mvOvX\mathcal{G}\not\subset {\bf m}_v{O}_v\langle X\rangle and kX/Gk\langle X\rangle /\langle\overline{\mathcal G}\rangle is a domain, where k=Ov/mvk=\mathcal{O}_v/{\bf m}_v is the residue field of Ov\mathcal{O}_v, kX=kX1,...,Xnk\langle X\rangle =k\langle X_1,...,X_n\rangle is the free kk-algebra on X1,...,XnX_1,...,X_n, and G\overline{\mathcal G} is the image of G\mathcal{G} under the canonical epimorphism OvXkX\mathcal{O}_v\langle X\rangle\rightarrow k\langle X\rangle, then FvAF^vA determines a valuation function AΓ{}A\rightarrow \Gamma\cup\{\infty\}, and thereby vv extends naturally to a valuation function on the (skew-)field Δ\Delta of fractions of AA provided Δ\Delta exists.
