We study the model theory of deeply ramified fields of positive characteristic. Generalizing the perfect case treated in work by Jahnke and Kartas on the model theory of perfectoid fields, we obtain Ax-Kochen/Ershov principles for certain…

We show that every valued differential field has an immediate strict extension that is spherically complete. We also discuss the issue of uniqueness up to isomorphism of such an extension.

Let $K$ be a Henselian, non-trivially valued field with separated analytic structure. We prove the existence of definable retractions onto an arbitrary closed definable subset of $K^{n}$. Hence directly follow definable non-Archimedean…

Local fields, and fields complete with respect to a discrete valuation, are essential objects in commutative algebra, with applications to number theory and algebraic geometry. We formalize in Lean the basic theory of discretely valued…

We study the question of $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{ring}}$-definability of non-trivial henselian valuation rings. Building on previous work of Jahnke and Koenigsmann, we provide a characterization of henselian fields that admit a non-trivial…

In this paper we present a characterization for the defect of a simple algebraic extensions of valued fields. This characterization generalizes the known result for the henselian case, namely that the defect is the product of the relative…

We firstly show that due to their resplendency ordered henselian valued fields admit relative field quantifier elimination in the Denef--Pas language expanded by linear orders in the field and residue field sort. Secondly, we deduce from a…

We prove a general version of the "Stability Theorem": if $K$ is a valued field such that the ramification theoretical defect is trivial for all of its finite extensions, and if $F|K$ is a finitely generated (transcendental) extension of…

We develop a framework of motivic integration in the style of Hrushovski--Kazhdan in arbitrary Hensel minimal fields of equicharacteristic zero. Hence our work generalizes that of Hrushovski--Kazhdan and Yin, but applies more broadly to…

In recent decades, the defect of finite extensions of valued fields has emerged as the main obstacle in several fundamental problems in algebraic geometry such as the local uniformization problem. Hence, it is important to identify…

In this note we study sets of NIP formulas in some theories of fields and valued fields, with a special focus on the sets of quantifier-free and existential formulas. First, we give a new proof of the fact that Separably Closed Valued…

We consider four properties of a field $K$ related to the existence of (definable) henselian valuations on $K$ and on elementarily equivalent fields, and study the implications between them. Surprisingly, the full pictures look very…

The defect of valued field extensions is a major obstacle in open problems in resolution of singularities and in the model theory of valued fields, whenever positive characteristic is involved. We continue the detailed study of defect…

Let $(K, v)$ be a Henselian discrete valued field with a quasifinite residue field. This paper proves the existence of an algebraic extension $E/K$ satisfying the following: (i) $E$ has dimension dim$(E) \le 1$, i.e. the Brauer group Br$(E…

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…
