Let $C$ be the class of separable-algebraically maximal equi-characteristic Kaplansky fields of a given imperfection degree, admitting an angular component map. We prove that the common theory of the class $C$ resplendently eliminates…
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…
Let $T$ be a complete strongly geometric theory of fields with quantifier elimination. We show that the theory of lovely pairs of $T$ has quantifier elimination in Delon's definitional expansion by predicates for linear independence and…
Motivated by the Ax-Kochen/Ershov principle, a large number of questions about henselian valued fields have been shown to reduce to analogous questions about the value group and residue field. In this paper, we investigate the burden of…
We prove in arbitrary characteristic that an immediate valued algebraic function field $F$ of transcendence degree 1 over a tame field $K$ is contained in the henselization of $K(x)$ for a suitably chosen $x\in F$. This eliminates…
Strongly dependent ordered abelian groups have finite dp-rank. They are precisely those groups with finite spines and $|\{p\text{ prime}:[G:pG]=\infty\}|<\infty$. We apply this to show that if $K$ is a strongly dependent field, then $(K,v)$…
We firstly show that due to their resplendency ordered henselian valued fields admit relative field quantifier elimination in the Denef--Pas language expanded by linear orders in the field and residue field sort. Secondly, we deduce from a…
Let $K$ be a complete non-Archimedean field $K$ with separated power series, treated in the analytic Denef--Pas language. We prove the existence of definable retractions onto an arbitrary closed definable subset of $K^{n}$, whereby…
We study the class of differentially henselian fields, which are henselian valued fields equipped with generic derivations in the sense of Cubides Kovacics and Point, and are special cases of differentially large fields in the sense of…
We continue the work of Kaplansky on immediate valued field extensions and determine special properties of elements in such extensions. In particular, we are interested in the question when an immediate valued function field of…
We continue the study of $n$-dependent groups, fields and related structures, largely motivated by the conjecture that every $n$-dependent field is dependent. We provide evidence towards this conjecture by showing that every infinite…
In this paper, we give appropriate languages in which the theory of tame fields (of any characteristic) admits (relative) quantifier elimination.
Using the ramification theory of tame and Kaplansky fields, we show that maximal Kaplansky fields contain maximal immediate extensions of each of their subfields. Likewise, algebraically maximal Kaplansky fields contain maximal immediate…
We present a reduction of the function field Mordell-Lang conjecture to the function field Manin-Mumford conjecture, in all characteristics, via model theory, but avoiding recourse to the dichotomy theorems for (generalized) Zariski…
We survey the history of Shelah's conjecture on strongly dependent fields, give an equivalent formulation in terms of a classification of strongly dependent fields and prove that the conjecture implies that every strongly dependent field…
We prove some results about the model theory of fields with a derivation of the Frobenius map, especially that the model companion of this theory is axiomatizable by axioms used by Wood in the case of the theory $\operatorname{DCF}_p$ and…
We prove quantifier elimination for the theory of quasi-real closed fields with a compatible valuation. This unifies the same known results for algebraically closed valued fields and real closed valued fields.
Let K be a henselian valued field of characteristic 0. Then K admits a definable partition on each piece of which the leading term of a polynomial in one variable can be computed as a definable function of the leading term of a linear map.…
In this note we study sets of NIP formulas in some theories of fields and valued fields, with a special focus on the sets of quantifier-free and existential formulas. First, we give a new proof of the fact that Separably Closed Valued…
Let $K$ be a Henselian, non-trivially valued field with separated analytic structure. We prove the existence of definable retractions onto an arbitrary closed definable subset of $K^{n}$. Hence directly follow definable non-Archimedean…
