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…

A commutative noetherian local ring $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ is Gorenstein if and only if every parameter ideal of $R$ is irreducible. Although irreducible parameter ideals may exist in non-Gorenstein rings, Marley, Rogers, and Sakurai show there…

We consider the two-variable fragment FO^2[<] of first-order logic over finite words. Numerous characterizations of this class are known. Th\'erien and Wilke have shown that it is decidable whether a given regular language is definable in…

We define a model of predicate logic in which every term and predicate, open or closed, has an absolute denotation independently of a valuation of the variables. For each variable a, the domain of the model contains an element [[a]] which…

The aim of this paper is to prove that every non-empty set of valuations centered at a two-dimensional regular domain has an infimum. We also generalize some results related to a non-metric tree.

We study first-order model checking, by which we refer to the problem of deciding whether or not a given first-order sentence is satisfied by a given finite structure. In particular, we aim to understand on which sets of sentences this…

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…

We initiate the study of definable V-topolgies and show that there is at most one such V-topology on a t-henselian NIP field. Equivalently, we show that if $(K,v_1,v_2)$ is a bi-valued NIP field with $v_1$ henselian (resp. t-henselian) then…

We consider the degrees of the elements of a homogeneous system of parameters for the ring of invariants of a binary form, give a divisibility condition, and a complete classification for forms of degree at most 8.

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…

We introduce a notion of valued module which is suitable to study valued fields of positive characteristic. Then we built-up a robust theory of henselianity in the language of valued modules and prove Ax-Kochen Ershov type results.

Classically, Groebner bases are computed by first prescribing a set monomial order. Moss Sweedler suggested an alternative and developed a framework to perform such computations by using valuation rings in place of monomial orders. We build…

We characterize those valued fields for which the image of the valuation ring under every polynomial in several variables contains an element of maximal value, or zero.

We prove that for every indecomposable ordinal there exists a (transfinitely valued) Euclidean domain whose minimal Euclidean norm is of that order type. Conversely, any such norm must have indecomposable type, and so we completely…

We investigate the computability-theoretic properties of valued fields, and in particular algebraically closed valued fields and $p$-adically closed valued fields. We give an effectiveness condition, related to Hensel's lemma, on a valued…

We give some sufficient conditions under which any valued field that admits quantifier elimination in the Macintyre language is henselian. Then, without extra assumptions, we prove that if a valued field of characteristic $(0,0)$ has a…

Prior specification for nonparametric Bayesian inference involves the difficult task of quantifying prior knowledge about a parameter of high, often infinite, dimension. Realistically, a statistician is unlikely to have informed opinions…

A generalization of canonical quantization which maps a dynamical operator to a dynamical superoperator is suggested. Weyl quantization of dynamical operator, which cannot be represented as Poisson bracket with some function, is considered.…

We introduce a new invariant for local rings of prime characteristic, called Frobenius complexity, that measures the abundance of Frobenius actions on the injective hull of the residue field of a local ring. We present an important case…

This paper gives an elementary proof of a theorem by de Felipe and Teissier in the paper "Valuations and henselization" (arXiv:1903.10793v1), to appear in Math. Annalen. The theorem compares two henselizations of a local domain dominated by…
