We study on finite unramified extensions of global function fields (function fields of one valuable over a finite field). We show two results. One is an extension of Perret's result about the ideal class group problem. Another is a…

Let (R; m; k) be a local noetherian domain with field of fractions K and R_v a valuation ring, dominating R (not necessarily birationally). Let v|K be the restriction of v to K; by definition, v|K is centered at R. Let \hat{R} denote the…

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…

Let $K=k((t))$ be a local field of characteristic $p>0$, with perfect residue field $k$. Let $\vec{a}=(a_0,a_1,\dots,a_{n-1})\in W_n(K)$ be a Witt vector of length $n$. Artin-Schreier-Witt theory associates to $\vec{a}$ a cyclic extension…

We study $U(N)$ SYM theories on spaces with orbifold singularities via an equivalent description in terms of gauge theories on smooth manifolds with insertions of Gukov-Witten and twist defects. The combined effect of the defects is to…

We establish some properties of \'etoiles and associated valuations over complex analytic spaces, showing that Abhyankar's inequality holds. We give some examples of pathological behavior of these valuations. We prove a regularization…

This paper deals with bounding the error on the estimation of quantities of interest obtained by finite element and domain decomposition methods. The proposed bounds are written in order to separate the two errors involved in the resolution…

Let $F/K$ be a finite Galois totally & wildly ramified extension of complete discrete valuation fields. We say that the extension has the Hasse-Arf property if the ramification jumps in upper numbering are integers. We give necessary…

We extend the characterization of extremal valued fields given in \cite{[AKP]} to the missing case of valued fields of mixed characteristic with perfect residue field. This leads to a complete characterization of the tame valued fields that…

We give an algorithm that constructs a minimal set of polynomials defining all extension of a $(\pi)$-adic field with given, inertia degree, ramification index, discriminant, ramification polygon, and residual polynomials of the segments of…

We give a characterization of finitely ramified $\omega$-pseudo complete valued fields of mixed characteristic $(0, p)$, with fixed residue field $k$ and value group $G$ of cardinality $\aleph_{1}$, in terms of a Hahn-like construction over…

T. Saito established a ramification theory for ring extensions locally of complete intersection. We show that for a Henselian valuation ring $A$ with field of fractions $K$ and for a finite Galois extension $L$ of $K$, the integral closure…

There are several equivalent characterizations of the valuation rank of an ordered or valued field. In this paper, we extend the theory to the case of an ordered or valued {\it difference} field (that is, ordered or valued field endowed…

Ramification theory of monogenic extensions of complete discrete valuation fields is presented. Relations to Kato's conductor are discussed.

Just as a residue field can be considered for a point of an algebraic variety, we can also consider a residue field for a point of a Berkovich analytic space. This residue field is a valuation field in the algebraic sense. Then we can…

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…

Since the seminal papers by Giannessi, an interesting topic in vector optimization has been the characterization of (weak) efficiency thorough Minty and Stampacchia type variational inequalities. Several results have been proved to extend…

Let $K$ be a characteristic zero algebraic function field with a valuation $\nu$. Let $L$ be a finite extension of $K$ and $\omega$ be an extension of $\nu$ to $L$. We establish that the valuation ring $V_{\omega}$ of $\omega$ is…

Let $(K,\nu)$ be an arbitrary-rank valued field, $R_\nu$ its valuation ring, $K(\alpha)/K$ a separable finite field extension generated over $K$ by a root of a monic irreducible polynomial $f\in R_\nu[X]$. We give necessary and sufficient…
