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…

We show that the valuation ring F_q[[t]] in the local field F_q((t)) is existentially definable in the language of rings with no parameters. The method is to use the definition of the henselian topology following the work of Prestel-Ziegler…

We prove some general estimates for exponential sums over subsets of finite fields which are definable in the language of rings. This generalizes both the classical exponential sum estimates over varieties over finite fields due to Weil,…

We extend results of Denef, Zahidi, Demeyer and the second author to show the following. (1) Rational integers have a single-fold Diophantine definition over the ring of integral functions of any function field of characteristic 0. (2)…

Let $K$ be a field, $\mathcal {O}_v$ a valuation ring of $K$ associated to a valuation $v$: $K\rightarrow\Gamma\cup\{\infty\}$, and ${\bf m}_v$ the unique maximal ideal of $\mathcal {O}_v$. Consider an ideal $\mathcal {I}$ of the free…

The aim of this article is to give a self-contained account of the algebra and model theory of Cohen rings, a natural generalization of Witt rings. Witt rings are only valuation rings in case the residue field is perfect, and Cohen rings…

Consider a complete discrete valuation ring $\mathcal{O}$ with quotient field $F$ and finite residue field. Then the inclusion map $\mathcal{O} \hookrightarrow F$ induces a map $\hat{\mathrm{K}}^\mathrm{M}_*\mathcal{O} \to…

Let $K$ be a number field, let $L$ be an algebraic (possibly infinite degree) extension of $K$, and let $O_K$ $\subset$ $O_L$ be their rings of integers. Suppose $A$ is an abelian variety defined over $K$ such that $A(K)$ is infinite and…

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…

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 prove that NIP valued fields of positive characteristic are henselian. Furthermore, we partially generalize the known results on dp-minimal fields to dp-finite fields. We prove a dichotomy: if K is a sufficiently saturated dp-finite…

The main aim of this article is to study and develop valuation theory for Krasner hyperfields. In analogy with classical valuation theory for fields, we generalise the formalism of valuation rings to describe equivalence of valuations on…

Let k be a field of characteristic zero, K an algebraic function field over k, and V a k-valuation ring of K. Zariski's theorem of local uniformization shows that there exist algebraic regular local rings R_i with quotient field K which are…

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…

We prove that every non-trivial valuation on an infinite superrosy field of positive characteristic has divisible value group and algebraically closed residue field. In fact, we prove the following more general result. Let $K$ be a field…

We prove the dp-finite case of the Shelah conjecture on NIP fields. If K is a dp-finite field, then K admits a non-trivial definable henselian valuation ring, unless K is finite, real closed, or algebraically closed. As a consequence, the…

In this note we study one-dimensional definable sets in power series fields with perfect residue fields. Using the description of automorphisms given by Schilling, in \cite{S44}, we show that such sets are unions of existentially definable…

Let K be an expansion of either an ordered field or a valued field. Given a definable set X $\subseteq$ K^m let C(X) be the ring of continuous definable functions from X to K. Under very mild assumptions on the geometry of X and…

We prove that for every ordered abelian group $G$ there exists a non-trivial ordered abelian group $H$ such that $G\preccurlyeq H\oplus G$ with the lexicographic order, and give a first-order characterization of ordered abelian group $G$…

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…
