A well-known result from the 1960s characterizes all Euclidean domains in which division is guaranteed to produce a unique quotient and remainder. As this relies on the historical (and more restrictive) definition of a Euclidean domain, the…
We give sufficient conditions on planar domains for polynomials to be dense in the algebras A and A-infinity of the product of these domains, endowed with their natural topologies. We also characterize the uniform limits, with respect to…
Let K be a Galois number field of prime degree $\ell$. Heilbronn showed that for a given $\ell$ there are only finitely many such fields that are norm-Euclidean. In the case of $\ell=2$ all such norm-Euclidean fields have been identified,…
Based on the intuitive notion of convexity, we formulate a universal property defining interval objects in a category with finite products. Interval objects are structures corresponding to closed intervals of the real line, but their…
We consider the space of convex functions defined in the Euclidean $n$-dimensional space, which are lower semi-continuous and tend to infinity at infinity. We study real-valued valuations defined on this space of functions, which are…
Dominions, in the sense of Isbell, are investigated in the context of decomposable varieties of groups. An upper and lower bound for dominions in such a variety is given in terms of the two varietal factors, and the internal structure of…
In this paper we give elementary conditions completely characterising when the theory of modules of a Pr\"ufer domain is decidable. Using these results, we show that the theory of modules of the ring of integer valued polynomials is…
We show that every definable subset of an uncountably categorical pseudofinite structure has pseudofinite cardinality which is polynomial (over the rationals) in the size of any strongly minimal subset, with the degree of the polynomial…
In this article, we try to explain and unify standard divisibility tests found in various books. We then look at recurring decimals, and list a few of their properties. We show how to compute the number of digits in the recurring part of…
We study the properties of topological spaces $(X,\tau)$, where $X$ is a definable set in an o-minimal structure and the topology $\tau$ on $X$ has a basis that is (uniformly) definable. Examples of such spaces include the canonical…
In this paper we study number fields which are Euclidean with respect to a function different from the absolute value of the norm. We also show that the Euclidean minimum with respect to weighted norms may be irrational and not isolated.
Let $(K,v)$ be a henselian valued field. Let $\mathbb{P}^{dless}\subset K[x]$ be the set of monic, irreducible polynomials which are defectless and have degree greater than one. For a certain equivalence relation $\,\approx\,$ on…
We study infinite groups interpretable in three families of valued fields: $V$-minimal, power bounded $T$-convex, and $p$-adically closed fields. We show that every such group $G$ has unbounded exponent and that if $G$ is dp-minimal then it…
The behavior of a class of mappings of a domain of Euclidean space is studied. It is established that the indicated class is equicontinuous both at the inner and at the boundary points of the domain if the mappings contained in it satisfy…
We show pro-definability of spaces of definable types in various classical complete first order theories, including complete o-minimal theories, Presburger arithmetic, $p$-adically closed fields, real closed and algebraically closed valued…
Euclidean functions with values in an arbitrary well-ordered set were first considered in a 1949 work of Motzkin and studied in more detail in work of Fletcher, Samuel and Nagata in the 1970's and 1980's. Here these results are revisited,…
We give an upper bound for the norm of the determinant of additively indecomposable, totally positive definite quadratic forms defined over the ring of integers of totally real number fields. We apply these results to find lower and upper…
A subset of Euclidean space will be said to be $n$-smooth if it has an $n$-dimensional tangent plane at each of its points. Let ${\frak d}_n$ denote the least number $n$-smooth sets into which $n+1$-dimensional Euclidean space can be…
In this paper we consider a fragment of the first-order theory of the real numbers that includes systems of equations of continuous functions in bounded domains, and for which all functions are computable in the sense that it is possible to…
We prove that entire transcendental holomorphic functions with an omitted value have infinite entropy. A proof for general transcendental entire functions will be given in an upcoming paper.
