We give a construction of a large first-order definable family of subrings of finitely generated fields $K$ of any characteristic. We deduce that for any such $K$ there exists a first-order sentence $\varphi_K$ characterising $K$ in the…

Let $K$ be a complete local field of characteristic $p$ with perfect residue field. Let $L/K$ be a finite, fully ramified, Galois $p$-extension. If $\pi_L\in L$ is a prime element, and $p'(x)$ is the derivative of $\pi_L$'s minimal…

We observe that a finitely generated algebraic algebra R (over a field) is finite dimensional if and only if the associated graded ring grR is right noetherian, if and only if grR has right Krull dimension, if and only if grR satisfies a…

Let $K$ be a large field such that $K[\sqrt{-1}]$ is not algebraically closed and $F/K$ a function field in one variable. Extending techniques and results from earlier work with Becher and Dittmann, we show that every valuation ring on $F$…

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

Rings of integer-valued polynomials are known to be atomic, non-factorial rings furnishing examples for both irreducible elements for which all powers factor uniquely (\emph{absolutely irreducibles}) and irreducible elements where some…

Suppose that $R$ is a local domain essentially of finite type over a field of characteristic 0, and $\nu$ a valuation of the quotient field of $R$ which dominates $R$. The rank of such a valuation often increases upon extending the…

Let $K\to L$ be an algebraic field extension and $\nu$ a valuation of $K$. The purpose of this paper is to describe the totality of extensions $\left\{\nu'\right\}$ of $\nu$ to $L$ using a refined version of MacLane's key polynomials. In…

T. Saito established a ramification theory for ring extensions locally of complete intersection. We show that for a Henselian valuation ring $A$ with field of fractions $K$ and for a finite Galois extension $L$ of $K$, the integral closure…

We prove that an expansion of an algebraically closed field by $n$ arbitrary valuation rings is NTP${}_2$, and in fact has finite burden. It fails to be NIP, however, unless the valuation rings form a chain. Moreover, the incomplete theory…

When $k$ is a finite field, Becker-Denef-Lipschitz (1979) observed that the total residue map $\text{res}:k(\!(t)\!)\to k$, which picks out the constant term of the Laurent series, is definable in the language of rings with a parameter for…

For an algebraic torus $T$, the finite central extensions $G$ of $T$ are characterized in terms of ramification theory of regular actions of $G$ on Krull algebras over an algebraically closed base field $K$ of any characteristic.

In this article we study definable functions in tame expansions of algebraically closed valued fields. For a given definable function we have two types of results: of type (I), which hold at a neighborhood of infinity, and of type (II),…

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…

Let $S$ be a submonoid of a free Abelian group of finite rank. We show that if $k$ is a field of prime characteristic such that the monoid $k$-algebra $k[S]$ is split $F$-regular, then $k[S]$ is a finitely generated $k$-algebra, or…

A henselian valued field $K$ is called a tame field if its algebraic closure $\tilde{K}$ is a tame extension, that is, the ramification field of the normal extension $\tilde{K}|K$ is algebraically closed. Every algebraically maximal…

We give an example of a valued field $(K,A)$ such that the valuation ring $A$ is definable by an $L_{\text{ring}}$-formula without parameters, but there is no $\exists\forall\exists$ or $\forall\exists\forall$-formula in $L_{\text{ring}}$…

In this short note we prove a finite generation result for the coordinate ring of certain affine group schemes over a discrete valuation ring. This may be used to simplify the use of results of Prasad and Yu on quasi-reductive groups by…

Let G be an algebraic group defined over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic zero. We give a simple proof of the following result: if H^1(L, G) = {1} for some finitely generated field extension L/k of transcendence degree \ge…

We consider finitely generated normal algebras over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero that come with a complexity one grading by a finitely generated abelian group such that the conditions of a UFD are satisfied for…
