We classify Artin-Schreier extensions of valued fields with non-trivial defect according to whether they are connected with purely inseparable extensions with non-trivial defect, or not. We use this classification to show that in positive…

Our published paper contains an incorrect statement of a result due to Artin and Zhang. This corrigendum gives the correct statement of their result and includes a new result that allows us to use their result to prove our main theorem.…

We provide some corrections and clarifications to the paper [Gr3] of the title. In particular, we clarify the "left/right" conventions on complex reflection groups and their braid groups. Most importantly, we fill in a gap related to the…

We give an introduction to the valuation theoretical phenomenon of "defect", also known as "ramification deficiency". We describe the role it plays in deep open problems in positive characteristic: local uniformization (the local form of…

Due to the omission of a hypothesis from an elementary lemma in the author's paper "Gleason parts and point derivations for uniform algebras with dense invertible group", some of the proofs presented in that paper are flawed. We prove here…

In recent decades, the defect of finite extensions of valued fields has emerged as the main obstacle in several fundamental problems in algebraic geometry such as the local uniformization problem. Hence, it is important to identify…

For all simple and finite extension of a valued field, we prove that its defect is the product of the effective degrees of the complete set of key polynomials associated. As a consequence, we obtain a local uniformization theorem for…

We correct an error in the paper referred to in the title. Part of the argument is organized as a general method for establishing when (derived) functors factor through a fixed Serre subcategory, which may be of some more general interest.

We previously obtained a generalization and refinement of results about the ramification theory of Artin-Schreier extensions of discretely valued fields in characteristic $p$ with perfect residue fields to the case of fields with more…

Given a discrete valued field $K$ of positive characteristic, we study the cyclic lifting problem of purely inseparable extensions of the residue field. We prove that unlike the mixed characteristic case, cyclic lifts of any finite purely…

This paper is a corrigendum to the article 'On the ideal theorem for number fields`. The main result of this paper proves to be untrue and is replaced by an estimate of a weighted sum with an improved error term.

The goal of this paper is to generalize and refine the classical ramification theory of complete discrete valuation rings to more general valuation rings, in the case of Artin-Schreier extensions. We define refined versions of invariants of…

In this paper we affirmatively answer a question posed by F.-V. Kuhlmann. We show that the first Artin-Schreier defect extension in Cutkosky and Piltant's counter-example to strong monomialization is a dependent extension. Our main tool is…

We study in detail the valuation theory of deeply ramified fields and introduce and investigate several other related classes of valued fields. Further, a classification of defect extensions of prime degree of valued fields that was earlier…

The defect of valued field extensions is a major obstacle in open problems in resolution of singularities and in the model theory of valued fields, whenever positive characteristic is involved. We continue the detailed study of defect…

We prove that a valued field of positive characteristic $p$ that has only finitely many distinct Artin-Schreier extensions (which is a property of infinite NTP$_2$ fields) is dense in its perfect hull. As a consequence, it is a deeply…

In the published version of this paper [Finite Fields and Their Applications {\bf 20} (2013) 40--54], there is an error in the proof of Theorem 4.2 of the paper. Here we correct the error and give the right statments for Theorems 4.2, 4.5…

For important cases of algebraic extensions of valued fields, we develop presentations of the associated K\"ahler differentials of the extensions of their valuation rings. We compute their annihilators as well as the associated Dedekind…

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 F be a field complete for a real valuation. It is a standard result in valuation theory that a finite extension of F admits a valuation basis if and only if it is without defect. We show that even otherwise, one can construct bases in…
