Let $R$ be a Dedekind ring, $K$ its quotient field, and $L=K(\alpha)$ a finite field extension of $K$ defined by a monic irreducible polynomial $f(x)\in R[x]$. We give an easy version of Dedekind's criterion which computationally improves…
Let $K\subseteq \mathbb{R}$ be a number field. Using techniques of discrete analysis, we prove that for definable sets $X$ in $\mathbb{R}_{\exp}$ of dimension at most $2$ a conjecture of Wilkie about the density of rational points is…
Let $\mathbb K$ be a field of characteristic zero and $A$ an integral domain over $\mathbb K.$ The Lie algebra $\Der_{\mathbb K} A$ of all $\mathbb K$-derivations of $A$ carries very important information about the algebra $A.$ This Lie…
Let K be F_q((T)), or more generally any field of characteristic p equipped with a valuation having a finite residue field of q elements. Then a polynomial f(x) in K[x] having k+1 nonzero coefficients has at most q^k distinct zeros in K. We…
We study existential theories of henselian valued fields of positive characteristic with parameters from a trivially valued subfield. Compared to previous work, we relax perfectness and separability assumptions, and instead work with the…
We define a transcendence degree for division algebras, by modifying the lower transcendence degree construction of Zhang. We show that this invariant has many of the desirable properties one would expect a noncommutative analogue of the…
Let K be a subfield of the real field, D be a discrete subset of K and f : D^n -> K be a function such that f(D^n) is somewhere dense. Then (K,f) defines the set of integers. We present several applications of this result. We show that K…
Liouville closed $H$-fields are ordered differential fields whose ordering and derivation interact in a natural way and where every linear differential equation of order $1$ has a nontrivial solution. (The introduction gives a precise…
The epicenter of this paper concerns Pfister quadratic forms over a field $F$ with a Henselian discrete valuation. All characteristics are considered but we focus on the most complicated case where the residue field has characteristic 2 but…
We present a unifying theory of fields with certain classes of analytic functions, called fields with analytic structure. Both real closed fields and Henselian valued fields are considered. For real closed fields with analytic structure,…
One can associate to a valued field an inverse system of valued hyperfields $(\mathcal{H}_i)_{i \in I}$ in a natural way. We investigate when, conversely, such a system arise from a valued field. First, we extend a result of Krasner by…
We consider complex rational vector fields that admit a first integral whose logarithmic derivative lies in a finite extension of the rational function field $K$. In view of the Prelle-Singer theorem, these are the rational vector fields…
Suppose V is a surface over a number field k that admits two elliptic fibrations. We show that for each integer d there exists an explicitly computable closed subset Z of V, not equal to V, such that for each field extension K of k of…
We give an example of a parameter-free definable henselian valuation ring which is neither definable by a parameter-free $\forall\exists$-formula nor by a parameter-free $\exists\forall$-formula in the language of rings. This answers a…
Let G be an algebraic group defined over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic zero. We give a simple proof of the following result: if H^1(L, G) = {1} for some finitely generated field extension L/k of transcendence degree \ge…
Let $p$ be a prime number and $(K, v)$ a Henselian valued field with a residue field $\widehat K$. This paper determines the Brauer $p$-dimension of $K$, in case $p \neq {\rm char}(\widehat K)$ and $\widehat K$ is a $p$-quasilocal field…
Let $(K,\nu)$ be an arbitrary valued field with valuation ring $R_{\nu}$ and $L=K(\alpha)$, where $\alpha$ is a root of a monic irreducible polynomial $f\in R_{\nu}[x]$. In this paper, we characterize the integral closedness of…
We introduce a notion of highly Kummer-faithful fields and study its relationship with the notion of Kummer-faithful fields. We also give some examples of highly Kummer-faithful fields. For example, if $k$ is a number field of finite degree…
For a proper subfield $K$ of $\QQ$ we show the existence of an algebraic number $\alpha$ such that no power $\alpha^n$, $n\geq 1$, lies in $K$. As an application it is shown that these numbers, multiplied by convenient Gaussian numbers, can…
Let G be a finite abelian group. A number field K is called a Hilbert-Speiser field of type G if for every tame G-Galois extension L/K has a normal integral basis, i.e., the ring of integers O_L is free as an O_K[G]-module. Let C_p denote…
