We study a class of tame $\mathcal{L}$-theories $T$ of topological fields and their $\mathcal{L}_\delta$-extension $T_{\delta}^*$ by a generic derivation $\delta$. The topological fields under consideration include henselian valued fields…
Given a henselian valuation, we study its definability (with and without parameters) by examining conditions on the value group. We show that any henselian valuation whose value group is not closed in its divisible hull is definable in the…
We present a unifying theory of fields with certain classes of analytic functions, called fields with analytic structure. Both real closed fields and Henselian valued fields are considered. For real closed fields with analytic structure,…
We study the definability of convex valuations on ordered fields, with a particular focus on the distinguished subclass of henselian valuations. In the setting of ordered fields, one can consider definability both in the language of rings…
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…
In this note we investigate the question whether a henselian valued field carries a non-trivial 0-definable henselian valuation (in the language of rings). It follows from the work of Prestel and Ziegler that there are henselian valued…
We give a general exposition of model theoretic connected components of groups. We show that if a group G has NIP, then there exists the smallest invariant (over some small set) subgroup of G with bounded index (Theorem 5.3). This result…
A field is existentially t-henselian if it is has the same existential theory in the first-order language of rings as a field that admits a nontrivial henselian valuation. This property turns out to be equivalent to $\mathbb{Z}$-largeness,…
We prove some technical results on definable types in $p$-adically closed fields, with consequences for definable groups and definable topological spaces. First, the code of a definable $n$-type (in the field sort) can be taken to be a real…
We prove the existence of definable retractions onto arbitrary closed subsets of $K^{n}$ definable over Henselian valued fields $K$. Hence directly follows non-Archimedian analogues of the Tietze--Urysohn and Dugundji theorems on extending…
We describe one.
We prove that every ultraproduct of $p$-adics is inp-minimal (i.e., of burden $1$). More generally, we prove an Ax-Kochen type result on preservation of inp-minimality for Henselian valued fields of equicharacteristic $0$ in the RV…
We study the question of $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{ring}}$-definability of non-trivial henselian valuation rings. Building on previous work of Jahnke and Koenigsmann, we provide a characterization of henselian fields that admit a non-trivial…
We study definable topological dynamics of some algebraic group actions over an arbitrary NIP field $K$. We show that the Ellis group of the universal definable flow of $\mathrm{SL}_2(K)$ is non-trivial if the multiplicative group of $K$ is…
Let $T$ be a theory which is t-minimal, meaning that with respect to some definable topology, a unary definable set $D \subseteq M$ has non-empty interior iff it is infinite. If $K$ is a definable field in $T$, then $K$ is finite or "large"…
So far there exist just a few results about the uniqueness of maximal immediate valued differential field extensions and about the relationship between differential-algebraic maximality and differential-henselianity; see arXiv:1509.02588,…
V. V. Shchigolev has proven that over any infinite field k of characteristic p>2, the T-space generated by G={x_1^p,x_1^px_2^p,...} is finitely based, which answered a question raised by A. V. Grishin. Shchigolev went on to conjecture that…
We show a transfer principle for the property that all types realised in a given elementary extension are definable. It can be written as follows: a Henselian valued fields is stably embedded in an elementary extension if and only if its…
Let $K$ be a type-definable infinite field in an NIP theory. If $K$ has characteristic $p > 0$, then $K$ is Artin-Schreier closed (it has no Artin-Schreier extensions). As a consequence, $p$ does not divide the degree of any finite…
Although the study of the definability of henselian valuations has a long history starting with J. Robinson, most of the results in this area were proven during the last few years. We survey these results which address the definability of…
