We study finite imaginaries in certain valued fields, and prove a conjecture of Cluckers and Denef.
The paper establishes a relationship between finite separable extensions and norm groups of strictly quasilocal fields with Henselian discrete valuations, which yields a generally nonabelian one-dimensional local class field theory.
The main idea of [4] was that structures built from periodic prime ideals have better properties from the usual ones built from invariant ideals; but unable to work with periodic ideals alone, we had to generalise further to a somewhat…
We seek to create tools for a model-theoretic analysis of types in algebraically closed valued fields (ACVF). We give evidence to show that a notion of 'domination by stable part' plays a key role. In Part A, we develop a general theory of…
The theory of valued difference fields $(K, \sigma, v)$ depends on how the valuation $v$ interacts with the automorphism $\sigma$. Two special cases have already been worked out - the isometric case, where $v(\sigma(x)) = v(x)$ for all…
We provide a characterisation of differentially large fields in arbitrary characteristic and a single derivation in the spirit of Blum axioms for differentially closed fields. In the case of characteristic zero, we use these axioms to…
Let $K$ be a field equipped with a discrete valuation $v$. In a pioneering work, S. MacLane determined all valuations on $K(x)$ extending $v$. His work was recently reviewed and generalized by M. Vaqui\'e, by using the graded algebra of a…
One can associate to a valued field an inverse system of valued hyperfields $(\mathcal{H}_i)_{i \in I}$ in a natural way. We investigate when, conversely, such a system arise from a valued field. First, we extend a result of Krasner by…
E. Hrushovski proved tha the theory of difference-differential fields has a model companion. We prove this result and other maind properties of this theory that we call DCFA. We describe the SU rank a its relation with transcendence degree.…
Refining a constructive combinatorial method due to MacLane and Schilling, we give several criteria for a valued field that guarantee that all of its maximal immediate extensions have infinite transcendence degree. If the value group of the…
We develop some aspects of the model theory of additive structures, with particular emphasis on the abelian category of pp-imaginaries.
Pre-$H$-fields are ordered valued differential fields satisfying some basic axioms coming from transseries and Hardy fields. We study pre-$H$-fields that are differential-Hensel-Liouville closed, that is, differential-henselian, real…
We introduce and study a new class of differential fields in positive characteristic. We call them separably differentially closed fields and demonstrate that they are the differential analogue of separably closed fields. We prove several…
We study model theoretic properties of valued fields (equipped with a real-valued multiplicative valuation), viewed as metric structures in continuous first order logic. For technical reasons we prefer to consider not the valued field…
Following a research line proposed by Hrushovski in his work on pseudofinite fields with an additive character, we investigate the theory $\mathrm{ACFA}^{+}$ which is the model companion of the theory of difference fields with an additive…
Let $\mathcal{K}=(K,v,\ldots)$ be a dp-minimal expansion of a non-trivially valued field of characteristic $0$ and $\mathcal{F}$ an infinite field interpretable in $\mathcal{K}$. Assume that $\mathcal{K}$ is one of the following: (i)…
We develop a new notion of independence suggested by Scanlon (th-independence). We prove that in a large class of theories (which includes all simple theories) this notion has many of the properties needed for an adequate geometric…
In the enriched setting, the notions of injective and projective model structures on a category of enriched diagrams also make sense. In this paper, we prove the existence of these model structures on enriched diagram categories under local…
This thesis is a contribution to the model theory of valued fields. We study forking in valued fields and some of their reducts. We focus particularly on pseudo-local fields, the ultraproducts of residue characteristic zero of the p-adic…
In this paper we express the retarded fields of Maxwell's theory in terms of the instantaneous fields of a Galilei-invariant electromagnetic and we find the vector function whose spatial and temporal derivatives transform the instantaneous…
