For a reduced Noetherian ring $R$ of characteristic $p > 0$, in this paper we discuss an extension of $R$ called its perfect closure $R^\infty$. This extension contains all $p^e$-th roots of elements of $R$, and is usually non-Noetherian.…

For an algebraic function field $F/K$ and a discrete valuation $v$ of $K$ with perfect residue field $k$, we bound the number of discrete valuations on $F$ extending $v$ whose residue fields are algebraic function fields of genus zero over…

In this paper, we study extensions of valuations over algebraic field extensions without the use of the Axiom of Choice. We show a bijection between the extensions of a valuation and the maximal ideals of the relative integral closure of…

Suppose that f is a dominant morphism from a k-variety X to a k-variety Y, where k is a field of characteristic 0 and v is a valuation of the function field k(X). We allow v to be an arbitary valuation, so it may not be discrete. We prove…

Suppose that $R$ is a local domain essentially of finite type over a field of characteristic 0, and $\nu$ a valuation of the quotient field of $R$ which dominates $R$. The rank of such a valuation often increases upon extending the…

Let $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ be a Noetherian local ring and $\widehat{R}$ its $\mathfrak{m}$-adic completion. We study the problem of determining when a finitely generated $\widehat{R}$-module arises from an $R$-module, i.e., when it is…

Given a valuation $v$ with quotient field $K$ and a sequence $\mathcal{K} :K_0\subseteq K_1\subseteq\cdots$ of finite extensions of $K$, we construct a weighted tree $\mathcal{T}(v,\mathcal{K})$ encoding information about the ramification…

We introduce the notion of {\it approximation type} for the partial, and in certain cases the total description of extensions of a given valuation from a field $K$ to the rational function field $K(x)$. To every extension, a unique…

Let R be a local domain, v a valuation of its quotient field centred in R at its maximal ideal. We investigate the relationship between R^h, the henselisation of R as local ring, and {\~v}, the henselisation of the valuation v, by focussing…

Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0 and let K*/K be a finite extension of algebraic function fields of transcendence degree 2 over k. Let v* be a k-valuation of K* with valuation ring V* and let v be the restriction…

For all simple and finite extension of a valued field, we prove that its defect is the product of the effective degrees of the complete set of key polynomials associated. As a consequence, we obtain a local uniformization theorem for…

In this paper we consider birational properties of ramification in excellent local rings. We extend earlier results of the author with Olivier Piltant to show that strong local monomialization is true along a valuation dominating a…

Assume that $(L,v)$ is a finite Galois extension of a valued field $(K,v)$. We give an explicit construction of the valuation ring $\mathcal O_L$ of $L$ as an $\mathcal O_K$-algebra, and an explicit description of the module of relative…

Fix a prime $p$ and let $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ be a Noetherian complete local domain of mixed characteristic $(0,p)$ with fraction field $K$. Let $R^+$ denote the absolute integral closure of $R$, which is the integral closure of $R$ in an…

Let $(K, \nu)$ be a valued field, the notions of \emph{augmented valuation}, of \emph{limit augmented valuation} and of \emph{admissible family} of valuations enable to give a description of any valuation $\mu$ of $K [x]$ extending $\nu$.…

This article discusses a way for uniquely setting up the valuations for the minimal generators of the maximal ideal of a one dimensional complete reduced and irreducible local algebra over an algebraically closed field, when treated as a…

Let A and B be integral domains. Suppose A is Noetherian and B is a finitely generated A-algebra that contains A. Denote by A' the integral closure of A in B. We show that A' is determined by finitely many unique discrete valuation rings.…

Let $R$ be a one-dimensional, local, Noetherian domain, $\R$ the integral closure of $R$ in its quotient field and $v(R)$ the value set defined by the usual valuation. The aim of the paper is to study the non-negative invariant…
