Consider a simple algebraic valued field extension $(L/K,v)$ and denote by $\mathcal O_L$ and $\mathcal O_K$ the corresponding valuation rings. The main goal of this paper is to present, under certain assumptions, a description of $\mathcal…

This is mainly a small exposition on extensions of valuation rings as a filtered union of smooth algebras.

Let $F$ be a field. For each nonempty subset $X$ of the Zariski-Riemann space of valuation rings of $F$, let ${A}(X) = \bigcap_{V \in X}V$ and ${J}(X) = \bigcap_{V \in X}{\mathfrak M}_V$, where ${\mathfrak M}_V$ denotes the maximal ideal of…

A finite abelian $p$-group having an automorphism $x$ such that $1+\ldots+x^{p-1}=0$, can be viewed as a module over an appropriate discrete valuation ring $\mathcal{O}$ containing $\mathbb{Z}_p$ (the ring of $p$-adic integer). This yields…

We define a class of pre-ordered abelian groups that we call finite-by-Presburger groups, and prove that their theory is model-complete. We show that certain quotients of the multiplicative group of a local field of characteristic zero are…

We compute the Galois cohomology of any $p$-adic valuation field extension of a pre-perfectoid field. Moreover, we obtain a generalization and also a new proof of the classical results of Tate and Hyodo on discrete valuation fields, without…

We show that framed deformation rings of mod $p$ representations of the absolute Galois group of a $p$-adic local field are complete intersections of expected dimension. We determine their irreducible components and show that they and their…

Let $p$ be a prime and let $K$ be a finite extension of the field ${\bf Q}_p$ of $p$-adic numbers such that the group ${}_pK^\times$ has order $p$. The ${\bf F}_p$-space $K^\times\!/K^{\times p}$ carries a natural filtration coming from the…

Consider a complete intersection I of type (d_1,..., d_r) in a polynomial ring over a field of characteristic 0. We study the graded system of ideals {gin(I^n)}_n obtained by taking the reverse lexicographic generic initial ideals of the…

We define a notion of residue field domination for valued fields which generalizes stable domination in algebraically closed valued fields. We prove that a real closed valued field is dominated by the sorts internal to the residue field,…

This article discusses a way for uniquely setting up the valuations for the minimal generators of the maximal ideal of a one dimensional complete reduced and irreducible local algebra over an algebraically closed field, when treated as a…

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 $L_{\text{ring}}$…

We give a valuation theoretic characterization for a real closed field to be recursively saturated. Our result extends the characterization of Harnik and Ressayre \cite{hr} for a divisible ordered abelian group to be recursively saturated.

The p-cohomology of an algebraic variety in characteristic p lies naturally in the category $D_{c}^{b}(R)$ of coherent complexes of graded modules over the Raynaud ring (Ekedahl-Illusie-Raynaud). We study homological algebra in this…

We study the inverse problem for the versal deformation rings $R(\Gamma,V)$ of finite dimensional representations $V$ of a finite group $\Gamma$ over a field $k$ of positive characteristic $p$. This problem is to determine which complete…

Let $A$ be a commutative noetherian ring and $I$ an ideal in $A$. We characterize algebraically when all the minimal primes of the associated graded ring $G_I A$ contract to minimal primes of $A/I$. This, applied to intersection theory,…

The $F$-pure threshold is the characteristic $p$ counter part of the log canonical threshold in characteristic zero. It is a numerical invariant associated to the singularities of a variety, hence computing its value is important. We give a…

In this paper we describe the blocks of the partition algebra over a field of positive characteristic.

The aim of this article is to give a self-contained account of the algebra and model theory of Cohen rings, a natural generalization of Witt rings. Witt rings are only valuation rings in case the residue field is perfect, and Cohen rings…

Consider a discrete valuation ring $R$ whose residue field is finite of cardinality at least $3$. For a finite torsion module, we consider transitive subsets $O$ under the action of the automorphism group of the module. We prove that the…
