We develop a notion of cell decomposition suitable for studying weak p- adic structures (reducts of p-adic fields where addition and multiplication are not (everywhere) definable). As an example, we apply this to a language with restricted…
We prove that for p-optimal fields (a very large subclass of p-minimal fields containing all the known examples) a cell decomposition theorem follows from methods going back to Denef's paper [Invent. Math, 77 (1984)]. We derive from it the…
A semialgebraic bijection from the field of p-adic numbers to itself minus one point is constructed. Semialgebraic p-adic sets are classified up to semialgebraic bijection. A cell decomposition theorem for restricted analytic p-adic maps is…
We study a reduct L\ast of the ring language where multiplication is restricted to a neighbourhood of zero. The language is chosen such that for p-adically closed fields K, the L\ast-definable subsets of K coincide with the semi-algebraic…
We say that a set $S$ is additively decomposed into two sets $A$ and $B$, if $S = \{a+b : a\in A, \ b \in B\}$. Here we study additively decompositions of multiplicative subgroups of finite fields. In particular, we give some improvements…
This paper addresses some questions about dimension theory for P-minimal structures. We show that, for any definable set A, the dimension of the frontier of A is strictly smaller than the dimension of A itself, and that A has a…
We prove a conjecture of Denef on parameterized $p$-adic analytic integrals using an analytic cell decomposition theorem, which we also prove in this paper. This cell decomposition theorem describes piecewise the valuation of analytic…
The first part is expository: it explains how finite fields may be used to prove theorems on infinite fields by a reduction mod p process. The second part gives a variant of P.Smith's fixed point theorem which applies in any characteristic.
Based on the simple and well understood concept of subfields in a finite field, the technique called `field reduction' has proved to be a very useful and powerful tool in finite geometry. In this paper we elaborate on this technique. Field…
We show that finding rank-$R$ decompositions of a 3D tensor, for $R\le 4$, over a fixed finite field can be done in polynomial time. However, if some cells in the tensor are allowed to have arbitrary values, then rank-2 is NP-hard over the…
We show that the class of $\mathcal{L}$-constructible functions is closed under integration for any $P$-minimal expansion of a $p$-adic field $(K,\mathcal{L})$. This generalizes results previously known for semi-algebraic and sub-analytic…
We classify fields having finitely many finite non-commutative (not necessarily central) division algebras over them. In the process, we introduce the notion of anti-closure of a field and also make comments on fields having a linear…
We say that a set $S$ is additively decomposed into two sets $A$ and $B$ if $S = \{a+b : a\in A, \ b \in B\}$. A. S\'ark\"ozy has recently conjectured that the set $Q$ of quadratic residues modulo a prime $p$ does not have nontrivial…
In this paper, we characterize NIP henselian valued fields modulo the theory of their residue field, both in an algebraic and in a model-theoretic way. Assuming the conjecture that every infinite NIP field is either separably closed, real…
A finite semifield is a division algebra over a finite field where multiplication is not necessarily associative. We consider here the complexity of the multiplication in small semifields and finite field extensions. For this operation, the…
In this paper, we study several topics on additive decompositions of primitive elemements in finite fields. Also we refine some bounds obtained by Dartyge and S\'{a}rk\"{o}zy and Shparlinski.
Let $p$ be a prime and let $\mathbb{Q}_p$ be the field of $p$-adic numbers. It is known that the finite extensions of $\mathbb{Q}_p$ of a given degree are finite up to isomorphism. Given a cubic field extension $L$ of $\mathbb{Q}_p$…
We determine the homological residue fields, in the sense of tensor-triangular geometry, in a series of concrete examples ranging from topological stable homotopy theory to modular representation theory of finite groups.
We determine the structure of the semisimple group algebra of certain groups over the rationals and over those finite fields where the Wedderburn decompositions have the least number of simple components. We apply our work to obtain similar…
The concept of descent algebras over a field of characteristic zero is extended to define descent algebras over a field of prime characteristic. Some basic algebraic structure of the latter, including its radical and irreducible modules, is…
