We prove a negative solution to the analogue of Hilbert's tenth problem for rings of one variable non-Archimedean entire functions in any characteristic. In the positive characteristic case we prove more: the ring of rational integers is…
One of the main open problems in the context of extensions of Hilbert's tenth problem (HTP) is the case of the ring of complex entire functions in one variable. Our main result provides a step towards an answer: For every $\rho\ge 0$, we…
We prove that the existential theory of any function field $K$ of characteristic $p> 0$ is undecidable in the language of rings provided that the constant field does not contain the algebraic closure of a finite field. We also extend the…
In the context of Hilbert's tenth problem, an outstanding open case is that of complex entire functions in one variable. A negative solution is known for polynomials (by Denef) and for exponential polynomials of finite order (by Chompitaki,…
We study function fields of curves over a base field $K$ which is either a global field or a large field having a separable field extension of degree divisible by $4$. We show that, for any such function field, Hilbert's 10th Problem has a…
This paper explores undecidability in theories of positive characteristic function fields in the "geometric" language of rings $\mathcal{L}_F = \{0, 1, +, \cdot, F\}$, with a unary predicate $F$ for nonconstant elements. In particular we…
Let K be a p-adic field (a finite extension of some Q_p) and let K(t) be the field of rational functions over K. We define a kind of quadratic reciprocity symbol for polynomials over K and apply it to prove isotropy for a certain class of…
In this article we outline the methods that are used to prove undecidability of Hilbert's Tenth Problem for function fields of characteristic zero. Following Denef we show how rank one elliptic curves can be used to prove undecidability for…
Let $K$ be a one-variable function field over a field of constants of characteristic 0. Let $R$ be a holomorphy subring of $K$, not equal to $K$. We prove the following undecidability results for $R$: If $K$ is recursive, then Hilbert's…
We revisit and connect several notions of algebraic multiplicities of zeros of analytic operator-valued functions and discuss the concept of the index of meromorphic operator-valued functions in complex, separable Hilbert spaces.…
In this paper, on the basis of a specific question raised in [6], we further continue our investigations on the uniqueness of a meromorphic function with its higher derivatives sharing two sets and answer the question affirmatively.…
Let K be a field with a valuation satisfying the following conditions: both K and the residue field k have characteristic zero; the value group is not 2-divisible; there exists a maximal subfield F in the valuation ring such that…
Let K be an algebraic function field of characteristic 2 with constant field C_K. Let C be the algebraic closure of a finite field in K. Assume that C has an extension of degree 2. Assume that there are elements u,x of K with u…
To prove that Hilbert's tenth problem over a ring R has a negative answer, usually the integers or another ring for which Hilbert's tenth problem has a negative solution is modelled inside the ring of interest. In this paper, we formalize…
A new technique for proving fixed point theorems for families of holomorphic transformations of operator balls is developed. One of these theorems is used to show that a bounded representation in a real or complex Hilbert space is…
One of the main open problems regarding decidability of the existential theory of rings is the analogue of Hilbert's Tenth Problem (HTP) for the ring of entire holomorphic functions in one variable. In the direction of a negative solution,…
In this article we prove that every germ of analytic meromorphic function at $(\mathbb{C}^{2},0)$ is equivalent, under the right composition by a germ of biholomorphism, to a germ of algebraic meromorphic function. An analogous result is…
We show that Hilbert's Tenth Problem is undecidable for complementary subrings of number fields and that the p-adic and archimedean ring versions of Mazur's conjectures do not hold in these rings. More specifically, given a number field K,…
Suppose that $F$ is a smooth and connected complex surface (not necessarily compact) containing a smooth rational curve with positive self-intersection. We prove that if there exists a non-constant meromorphic function on $F$, then the…
n this article we consider functions meromorphic in the unit disk. We give an elementary proof for a condition that is sufficient for the univalence of such functions which also contains some known results. We include few open problems for…
