We give a first-order definition of key polynomials, we show the links with previous definitions, that it is relevant to study key degrees, and to use a kind of valuations that we call partially multiplicative. We also prove or reprove…
In this paper, we extend the theory of minimal limit key polynomials of valuations on the polynomial ring $\kx$. We use the theory of cuts on ordered abelian groups to show that the previous results on bounded sets of key polynomials of…
The main goal of this paper is to characterize limit key polynomials for a valuation $\nu$ on $K[x]$. We consider the set $\Psi_\alpha$ of key polynomials for $\nu$ of degree $\alpha$. We set $p$ be the exponent characteristic of $\nu$. Our…
Let (K, v) be a henselian valued field of arbitrary rank. In this paper, we give an irreducibility criterion for multivariate polynomials over K using valuation theory.
In this paper we give an introduction on how one can extend a valuation from a field $K$ to the polynomial ring $K[x]$ in one variable over $K$. This follows a similar line as the one presented by the author in his talk at ALaNT 5. We will…
In this paper we establish the relation between key polynomials (as defined in \cite{SopivNova}) and minimal pairs of definition of a valuation. We also discuss truncations of valuations on a polynomial ring $K[x]$. We prove that a…
Let D be a domain with quotient field K and A a D-algebra. We call a polynomial with coefficients in K that maps every element of A to an element of A "integer-valued on A". For commutative A we also consider integer-valued polynomials in…
We study multivariate polynomials over `structured' grids. We begin by proposing an interpretation as to what it means for a finite subset of a field to be structured; we do so by means of a numerical parameter, the nullity. We then extend…
In this paper we present a characterization for the defect of a simple algebraic extension of rank one valued fields using the key polynomials that define the valuation. As a particular example, this gives the classification of defect…
Let $\iota:K\hookrightarrow L\cong K(x)$ be a simple transcendental extension of valued fields, where $K$ is equipped with a valuation $\nu$ of rank 1. That is, we assume given a rank 1 valuation $\nu$ of $K$ and its extension $\nu'$ to…
For a simple, normal and finite extension of a valued field, we prove that we can related the order of the ramification group of the field extension and the set of key polynomials associated to the extension of the valuation. More…
New and old results on closed polynomials, i.e., such polynomials f in K[x_1,...,x_n] that the subalgebra K[f] is integrally closed in K[x_1,...,x_n], are collected. Using some properties of closed polynomials we prove the following…
In this paper we introduce a new concept of key polynomials for a given valuation $\nu$ on $K[x]$. We prove that such polynomials have many of the expected properties of key polynomials as those defined by MacLane and Vaqui\'e, for…
If K/k is a function field in one variable of positive characteristic, we describe a general algorithm to factor one-variable polynomials with coefficients in K. The algorithm is flexible enough to find factors subject to additional…
In this paper we study the truncation $\nu_q$ of a valuation $\nu$ on a polynomial $q$. It is known that when $q$ is a key polynomial, then $\nu_q$ is a valuation. It is also known that the converse does not hold. We show that when $q$ is a…
In different areas of discrete mathematics, a certain type of polynomials, having coefficients in a field K of finite characteristic, has been considered. The form and the degree of these polynomials, here called projective, are simply…
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.
This article is a natural construction of our previous works. In this article, we employ similar ideas due to MacLane to provide an estimate of IC(K(X)|K,v) when (K(X)|K,v) is a valuation algebraic extension. Our central result is an…
For a certain field $K$, we construct a valuation-algebraic valuation on the polynomial ring $K[x]$, whose Maclane--Vaqui\'e chain consists of an infinite (countable) number of limit augmentations
In this paper, we study the structure of the graded ring associated to a limit key polynomial $Q_n$ in terms of the key polynomials that define $Q_n$. In order to do that, we use direct limits. In general, we describe the direct limit of a…
