We give model theoretic criteria for $\exists \forall$ and $\forall \exists$- formulas in the ring language to define uniformly the valuation rings $\mathcal{O}$ of models $(K, \mathcal{O})$ of an elementary theory $\Sigma$ of henselian…

We prove an assortment of results on (commutative and unital) NIP rings, especially $\mathbb{F}_p$-algebras. Let $R$ be a NIP ring. Then every prime ideal or radical ideal of $R$ is externally definable, and every localization $S^{-1}R$ is…

We show that every henselian valued field $L$ of residue characteristic 0 admits a proper subfield $K$ which is dense in $L$. We present conditions under which this can be taken such that $L|K$ is transcendental and $K$ is henselian. These…

For $(K,v)$ a Henselian valued field, let $\theta\in\overline{K}$ with minimal polynomial $F$ over $K$. Okutsu sequences of $\theta$ have been defined only when the extension $K(\theta)/K$ is defectless. In this paper, we extend this…

For a finite valued field extension $(L/K,v)$ we describe the problem of find sets of generators for the corresponding extension $\mathcal O_L/\mathcal O_K$ of valuation rings. The main tool to obtain such sets are complete sets of (key)…

Consider a simple algebraic valued field extension $(L/K,v)$ and denote by $\mathcal O_L$ and $\mathcal O_K$ the corresponding valuation rings. The main goal of this paper is to present, under certain assumptions, a description of $\mathcal…

We investigate the rings in which the set of nonzero elements is positive-existential (i.e. a finite union of projections of "algebraic" sets). In the case of Noetherian domains, we prove in particular that this condition is satisfied…

The main goal of this paper is to study some properties of an extension of valuations from classical invariants. More specifically, we consider a valued field $(K,\nu)$ and an extension $\omega$ of $\nu$ to a finite extension $L$ of $K$.…

We study the definability of convex valuations on ordered fields, with a particular focus on the distinguished subclass of henselian valuations. In the setting of ordered fields, one can consider definability both in the language of rings…

Let $V$ be a valuation ring of a global field $K$. We show that for all positive integers $k$ and $1 < n_1 \leq \ldots \leq n_k$ there exists an integer-valued polynomial on $V$, that is, an element of $\text{Int}(V) = \{ f \in K[X] \mid…

A field is existentially t-henselian if it is has the same existential theory in the first-order language of rings as a field that admits a nontrivial henselian valuation. This property turns out to be equivalent to $\mathbb{Z}$-largeness,…

For an arbitrary valued field $(K,v)$ and a given extension $v(K^*)\hookrightarrow\Lambda$ of ordered groups, we analyze the structure of the tree formed by all $\Lambda$-valued extensions of $v$ to the polynomial ring $K[x]$. As an…

Suppose that (K, $\nu$) is a valued field, f (z) $\in$ K[z] is a unitary and irreducible polynomial and (L, $\omega$) is an extension of valued fields, where L = K[z]/(f (z)). Further suppose that A is a local domain with quotient field K…

We discuss the role of additive polynomials and $p$-polynomials in the theory of valued fields of positive characteristic and in their model theory. We outline the basic properties of rings of additive polynomials and discuss properties of…

Let G be an unramified reductive group over a non archimedian local field F. The so-called "Langlands Fundamental Lemma" is a family of conjectural identities between orbital integrals for G(F) and orbital integrals for endoscopic groups of…

An element of a finitely generated non-Abelian free group F(X) is said to be filling if that element has positive translation length in every very small action of F(X) on an $\mathbb{R}$-tree. We give a proof that the set of filling…

We study the extension of valuations centered in a local domain to its henseliza-tion. We prove that a valuation $\nu$ centered in a local domain R uniquely determines a minimal prime H($\nu$) of the henselization R h of R and an extension…

Recently, Anscombe and Koenigsmann gave an existential 0-definition of the ring of formal power series F[[t]] in its quotient field in the case where F is finite. We extend their method in several directions to give general definability…

We give a criterion for maps on ultrametric spaces to be surjective and to preserve spherical completeness. We show how Hensel's Lemma and the multi-dimensional Hensel's Lemma follow from our result. We give an easy proof that the latter…

We show a transfer principle for the property that all types realised in a given elementary extension are definable. It can be written as follows: a Henselian valued fields is stably embedded in an elementary extension if and only if its…
