We consider four properties of a field $K$ related to the existence of (definable) henselian valuations on $K$ and on elementarily equivalent fields, and study the implications between them. Surprisingly, the full pictures look very…

We prove in arbitrary characteristic that an immediate valued algebraic function field $F$ of transcendence degree 1 over a tame field $K$ is contained in the henselization of $K(x)$ for a suitably chosen $x\in F$. This eliminates…

We continue the work of Kaplansky on immediate valued field extensions and determine special properties of elements in such extensions. In particular, we are interested in the question when an immediate valued function field of…

We study the relative algebraic closure $K$ of $\bar{\mathbb{F}}_p((t))$ inside $\bar{\mathbb{F}}((t^{\mathbb{Q}}))$. We show that the supports of elements in $K$ have order type strictly less than $\omega^\omega$. We also recover a theorem…

We show that a field $K$ is model complete (in the language of rings) if and only if the Heisenberg group $H(K)$ is model complete (in the language of groups). To show that, we extend Levchuk's result about automorphisms of $H(K)$ to the…

In this article, we extend a well known result about real rank zero C* Algebras to higher real rank C* Algebras. The main technique used here is similar to the method in which we approximate continuous functions using projections. What we…

Using the ramification theory of tame and Kaplansky fields, we show that maximal Kaplansky fields contain maximal immediate extensions of each of their subfields. Likewise, algebraically maximal Kaplansky fields contain maximal immediate…

Let $(K,v)$ be a valued field. Take an extension of $v$ to a fixed algebraic closure $L$ of $K$. In this paper we show that an element $a\in L$ admits a complete distinguished chain over $K$ if and only if the extension $(K(a)|K,v)$ is…

Let $K = \mathbb{R}$ or $\mathbb{C}$. An $n$-element subset $A$ of $K$ is a $B_h$-set if every element of $K$ has at most one representation as the sum of $h$ not necessarily distinct elements of $A$. Associated to the $B_h$ set $A =…

Let K be a henselian valued field of characteristic 0. Then K admits a definable partition on each piece of which the leading term of a polynomial in one variable can be computed as a definable function of the leading term of a linear map.…

The purpose of this note is to give a linear algebra algorithm to find out if a rank of a given tensor over a field $\F$ is at most $k$ over the algebraic closure of $\F$, where $k$ is a given positive integer. We estimate the arithmetic…

We show that every henselian valued field $L$ of residue characteristic 0 admits a proper subfield $K$ which is dense in $L$. We present conditions under which this can be taken such that $L|K$ is transcendental and $K$ is henselian. These…

Let $(K,v)$ be a henselian valued field. Let $\mathbb{P}^{dless}\subset K[x]$ be the set of monic, irreducible polynomials which are defectless and have degree greater than one. For a certain equivalence relation $\,\approx\,$ on…

We generalize a version of Lavrent\'ev's theorem which says that a function that is continuous on a compact set K with connected complement and without interior points can be uniformly approximated as closely as desired by a polynomial…

Let K be a field and \tilde{K} denote the set of all r \in K for which there exists a finite set A(r) with {r} \subseteq A(r) \subseteq K such that each mapping f:A(r) \to K that satisfies: if 1 \in A(r) then f(1)=1, if a,b \in A(r) and a+b…

In the tensor space $\mathrm{Sym}^d {\mathbb R}^2$ of binary forms we study the best rank $k$ approximation problem. The critical points of the best rank $1$ approximation problem are the eigenvectors and it is known that they span a…

Let $K$ be a null-homologous knot in a generalized L-space $Z$ with $b_1(Z)\le1$. Let $F$ be a Seifert surface of $K$ with genus $g$. We show that if $\widehat{HFK}(Z,K,[F],g)$ is supported in a single $\mathbb Z/2\mathbb Z$--grading, then…

Let $K$ be a local field whose residue field has characteristic $p$ and let $L/K$ be a finite separable totally ramified extension of degree $n=up^{\nu}$. Let $\sigma_1,\dots,\sigma_n$ denote the $K$-embeddings of $L$ into a separable…

Let $K$ be a closed polydisc or ball in $\C^n$, and let $Y$ be a quasi projective algebraic manifold which is Zariski locally equivalent to $\C^p$, or a complement of an algebraic subvariety of codimension $\ge 2$ in such manifold. If $r$…

For a henselian valued field $(K,v)$ and a separable-algebraic element $a\in\overline{K}\setminus K$, we consider the set $S_K(a):= \{ v(a-a^\prime) \mid a^\prime\neq a \text{ is a $K$-conjugate of $a$} \}$. The central aim of this paper is…
