$\DeclareMathOperator{\IntR}{Int{}^\text{R}}$Integer-valued rational functions are a natural generalization of integer-valued polynomials. Given a domain $D$, the collection of all integer-valued rational functions over $D$ forms a ring…

For automorphisms of a polynomial ring in two variables over a domain R, we show that local tameness implies global tameness provided that every 2-generated invertible R-module is free. We give many examples illustrating this property.

Let $F$ be a field, let $D$ be a subring of $F$, and let ${\mathfrak{X}}$ be the Zariski-Riemann space of valuation rings containing $D$ and having quotient field $F$. We consider the Zariski, inverse and patch topologies on…

We study Abhyankar valuations of excellent equicharacteristic local domains with an algebraically closed residue field. For zero dimensional valuations we prove that whenever the ring is complete and the semigroup of values taken by the…

In this paper, we show that the building at infinity of a two-dimensional affine R-building is a generalized polygon endowed with a valuation satisfying some specific axioms. Specializing to the discrete case of affine buildings, this…

We study algebraic discrete valuations dominating normal local domains of dimension two. We construct a family of examples to show that the Hilbert-Samuel function of the associated graded ring of the valuation can fail to be asymptotically…

We consider the directed union S of an infinite sequence {(R_n, m_n)} of successive local quadratic transforms of a regular local ring (R, m). If dim R = 2, Abhyankar proves that S is a valuation ring. If dim R > 2, Shannon gives necessary…

We introduce several classes of set-valued maps with generalized convexity. We obtain minimax theorems for set-valued maps which satisfy the introduced properties and are not continuous, by using a fixed point theorem for weakly naturally…

Let $F$ be a field, let $D$ be a local subring of $F$, and let Val$_F(D)$ be the space of valuation rings of $F$ that dominate $D$. We lift Zariski's connectedness theorem for fibers of a projective morphism to the Zariski-Riemann space of…

In this paper the question of which semigroups are realizable as the semigroup of values attained on a Noetherian local ring which is dominated by a valuation is considered. We give some striking examples, indicating that there may be no…

We prove that the topological entropy of any dominant rational self-map of a projective variety defined over a complete non-Archimedean field is bounded from above by the maximum of its dynamical degrees, thereby extending a theorem of…

The main purpose of this paper is to find the fixed point in such cases where existing literature remain silent. In this paper we introduce partial completeness, a new type of contraction and many other definitions. Using this approach the…

Let I be a finitely supported complete m-primary ideal of a regular local ring (R, m). A theorem of Lipman implies that I has a unique factorization as a *-product of special *-simple complete ideals with possibly negative exponents for…

There has arisen in recent years a substantial theory of "multiplier ideals'' in commutative rings. These are integrally closed ideals with properties that lend themselves to highly interesting applications. But how special are they among…

Valuation based systems verifying an idempotent property are studied. A partial order is defined between the valuations giving them a lattice structure. Then, two different strategies are introduced to represent valuations: as infimum of…

The article is devoted to stochastic processes with values in finite-dimensional vector spaces over infinite locally compact fields with non-trivial non-archimedean valuations. Infinitely divisible distributions are investigated. Theorems…

Let $R$ be a complete equicharacteristic noetherian local domain with an algebraically closed residue field $k$. Let $\nu$ be a zero dimensional valuation of rank one centered in $R$ with value group $\Phi$. We show that there is a…

Valuation rings and perfectoid rings are examples of (usually non-noetherian) rings that behave in some sense like regular rings. We give and study an extension of the concept of regular local rings to non-noetherian rings so that it…

We classify dp-minimal integral domains, building off the existing classification of dp-minimal fields and dp-minimal valuation rings. We show that if R is a dp-minimal integral domain, then R is a field or a valuation ring or arises from…

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.…
