We describe the Dedekind cuts explicitly in terms of non-standard rational numbers. This leads to another construction of a Dedekind complete totally ordered field or, equivalently, to another proof of the consistency of the axioms of the…
Many of the theorems of real analysis, against the background of the ordered field axioms, are equivalent to Dedekind completeness, and hence can serve as completeness axioms for the reals. In the course of demonstrating this, the article…
We present a characterization of the completeness of the field of real numbers in the form of a \emph{collection of several equivalent statements} borrowed from algebra, real analysis, general topology, and non-standard analysis. We also…
This paper is a part of ongoing research on order positive fields started some years ago. We prove that the real closure of an order positive field even in non-Archimedean case is also order positive.
In this article, we will introduce methods of non-standard analysis into projective geometry. Especially, we will analyze the properties of a projective space over a non-Archimedean field. Non-Archimedean fields contain numbers that are…
In this paper we provide a complete approach to the real numbers via decimal representations. Construction of the real numbers by Dedekind cuts, Cauchy sequences of rational numbers, and the algebraic characterization of the real number…
In this note, we study non-standard models of the rational numbers with countably many elements. These are ordered fields, and so it makes sense to complete them, using non-standard Cauchy sequences. The main result of this note shows that…
We present a characterization of the completeness of the field of real numbers in the form of a \emph{collection of ten equivalent statements} borrowed from algebra, real analysis, general topology and non-standard analysis. We also discuss…
Given a Dedekind incomplete ordered field, a pair of convergent nets of gaps which are respectively increasing or decreasing to the same point is used to obtain a further equivalent criterion for Dedekind completeness of ordered fields:…
In the present paper we investigate the convergence of a double series over a complete non-Archimedean field and prove that, while the proofs are somewhat different, the Archimedean results hold true.
We construct the non-standard complex (and real) numbers using the ultrapower method in the spirit of Cauchy's construction of the real numbers. We show that the non-standard complex numbers are a non-archimedean, algebraically closed…
Trees are partial orderings where every element has a linearly ordered set of smaller elements. We define and study several natural notions of completeness of trees, extending Dedekind completeness of linear orders and Dedekind-MacNeille…
Completion is one of the most studied techniques in term rewriting and fundamental to automated reasoning with equalities. In this paper we present new correctness proofs of abstract completion, both for finite and infinite runs. For the…
We prove that any ordered field can be extended to one for which every decreasing sequence of bounded closed intervals, of any length, has a nonempty intersection; equivalently, there are no Dedekind cuts with equal cofinality from both…
The methods of nonstandard analysis are applied to algebra and number theory. We study nonstandard Dedekind rings, for example an ultraproduct of the ring of integers of a number field. Such rings possess a rich structure and have…
We classify Artin-Schreier extensions of valued fields with non-trivial defect according to whether they are connected with purely inseparable extensions with non-trivial defect, or not. We use this classification to show that in positive…
The article is devoted to approximate, global and along curves differentiability of functions over non-archimedean infinite fields with non-trivial valuations. Fields with zero and non-zero characteristics are considered. Spaces of…
Contrary to widespread perception, there is ever since 1994 a unified, general type independent theory for the existence of solutions for very large classes of nonlinear systems of PDEs. This solution method is based on the Dedekind order…
We put forward a new method of constructing the complete ordered field of real numbers from the ordered field of rational numbers. Our method is a generalization of that of A. Knopfmacher and J. Knopfmacher. Our result implies that there…
The tilting correspondence is a fundamental property of perfectoid fields. In this note, we show that the tilting construction can also be used to detect perfectoid fields among nonarchimedean fields. In particular, for $K$ a complete…
