We present new, unified proofs for the cell-like, $\mathbb{Z}/p$-, and $\mathbb{Q}$-resolution theorems. Our arguments employ extensions that are much simpler then those used by our predecessors. The techniques allow us to solve problems…

Using half-integral weight modular forms we give a criterion for the existence of real quadratic $p$-rational fields. For $p=5$ we prove the existence of infinitely many real quadratic $p$-rational fields.

We prove decidability of univariate real algebra extended with predicates for rational and integer powers, i.e., $(x^n \in \mathbb{Q})$ and $(x^n \in \mathbb{Z})$. Our decision procedure combines computation over real algebraic cells with…

We study the implications of model completeness of a theory for the effectiveness of presentations of models of that theory. It is immediate that for a computable model $\mathcal A$ of a computably enumerable, model complete theory, the…

A field $K$ in a ring language $\mathcal{L}$ is finitely undecidable if $\mbox{Cons}(\Sigma)$ is undecidable for every nonempty finite $\Sigma \subseteq \mbox{Th}(K; \mathcal{L})$. We adapt arguments originating with Cherlin-van den…

Let $\widetilde{\mathbb{Q}_p}$ be the field of $p$-adic numbers in the language of rings. In this paper we consider the theory of $\widetilde{\mathbb{Q}_p}$ expanded by two predicates interpreted by multiplicative subgroups…

In [6] we proved that the universal theory of infinite free lattices is (algorithmically) decidable, leaving open the problem of decidability of the full theory of an (infinite) free lattice. We solve this problem by proving that, for every…

We investigate the problem of deciding whether a system of linear equations, together with divisibility conditions on the variables, has a solution over holomorphy subrings of global fields. We obtain decidability results when we allow…

We prove that NIP valued fields of positive characteristic are henselian. Furthermore, we partially generalize the known results on dp-minimal fields to dp-finite fields. We prove a dichotomy: if K is a sufficiently saturated dp-finite…

By looking at decidable quotients, a sufficient condition is provided to guarantee that (1) the full subcategory of decidable objects of a topos is an exponential ideal and that (2) the classical notion of connectedness for an object $X$…

Assuming a certain form of resolution of singularities, we prove a general existential Ax-Kochen/Ershov principle for tamely ramified fields in all characteristics. This specializes to well-known results in residue characteristic $0$ and…

We show that the common theory of all modules over a tubular algebra (over a recursive algebraically closed field) is decidable. This result supports a long standing conjecture of Mike Prest which says that a finite-dimensional algebra…

Using exceptional theta correspondences, we prove that certain Weil representations of $p$-adic groups are multiplicity free and determine irreducible quotients.

We give a new proof for the decidability of the D0L ultimate periodicity problem based on the decidability of p-periodicity of morphic words adapted to the approach of Harju and Linna.

We provide algebraic conditions ensuring the decidability of the theory of modules over effectively given Pr\"ufer (in particular B\'ezout) domains with infinite residue fields in terms of a suitable generalization of the prime radical…

We consider the question of certifying that a polynomial in ${\mathbb Z}[x]$ or ${\mathbb Q}[x]$ is irreducible. Knowing that a polynomial is irreducible lets us recognise that a quotient ring is actually a field extension (equiv.~that a…
