We give an elementary proof of a version of the implicit function theorem over Henselian valued fields $K$. It yields a density property for such fields (introduced in a joint paper with J. Koll{\'a}r), which is indispensable for ensuring…
Local fields, and fields complete with respect to a discrete valuation, are essential objects in commutative algebra, with applications to number theory and algebraic geometry. We formalize in Lean the basic theory of discretely valued…
We show that separably closed valued fields of finite imperfection degree (either with lambda-functions or commuting Hasse derivations) eliminate imaginaries in the geometric language. We then use this classification of interpretable sets…
We show that dp-minimal valued fields are henselian and that a dp-minimal field admitting a definable type V topology is either real closed, algebraically closed or admits a non-trivial definable henselian valuation. We give classifications…
We axiomatically define (pre-)Hilbert categories. The axioms resemble those for monoidal Abelian categories with the addition of an involutive functor. We then prove embedding theorems: any locally small pre-Hilbert category whose monoidal…
A henselian valued field $K$ is called separably tame if its separable-algebraic closure $K^{\operatorname{sep}}$ is a tame extension, that is, the ramification field of the normal extension $K^{\operatorname{sep}}|K$ is…
We investigate the model completeness of the theory of a mixed characteristic henselian valued field with finite ramification relative to the residue field and value group. We address the case in which the valued field has a value group…
We show that every henselian valued field $L$ of residue characteristic 0 admits a proper subfield $K$ which is dense in $L$. We present conditions under which this can be taken such that $L|K$ is transcendental and $K$ is henselian. These…
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 seek to create tools for a model-theoretic analysis of types in algebraically closed valued fields (ACVF). We give evidence to show that a notion of 'domination by stable part' plays a key role. In Part A, we develop a general theory of…
We use a generalization of a construction by Ziegler to show that for any field $F$ and any countable collection of countable subsets $A_i \subseteq F, i \in \calI \subset \Z_{>0}$ there exist infinitely many fields $K$ of arbitrary…
We show that arithmetic definability of henselian valuations is preserved by the tilting correspondence. Moreover, we show that if a perfectoid valuation is arithmetically definable, then no parameters are needed. We also investigate…
Marker and Steinhorn shown that given two models $M\prec N$ of an o-minimal theory, if all 1-types over $M$ realized in $N$ are definable, then all types over $M$ realized in $N$ are definable. In this article we characterize pairs of…
This thesis is a contribution to the model theory of valued fields. We study forking in valued fields and some of their reducts. We focus particularly on pseudo-local fields, the ultraproducts of residue characteristic zero of the p-adic…
We present a unifying framework of residual domination for (expansions of) henselian valued fields of equicharacteristic zero, encompassing some valued fields with operators. We show that the class of residually dominated types coincides…
Let $(K,v)$ be a valued field. Take an extension of $v$ to a fixed algebraic closure $L$ of $K$. In this paper we show that an element $a\in L$ admits a complete distinguished chain over $K$ if and only if the extension $(K(a)|K,v)$ is…
We give a definition, in the ring language, of Z_p inside Q_p and of F_p[[t]] inside F_p((t)), which works uniformly for all $p$ and all finite field extensions of these fields, and in many other Henselian valued fields as well. The formula…
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 $F$…
Given a perfectoid field, we find an elementary extension and a henselian defectless valuation on it, whose value group is divisible and whose residue field is an elementary extension of the tilt. This specializes to the almost purity…
We discuss definability of henselian valuation rings in the Macintyre language $\mathcal{L}_{\rm Mac}$, the language of rings expanded by n-th power predicates. In particular, we show that henselian valuation rings with finite or Hilbertian…
