We extend the characterization of extremal valued fields given in \cite{[AKP]} to the missing case of valued fields of mixed characteristic with perfect residue field. This leads to a complete characterization of the tame valued fields that…

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…

Let $V$ be a valuation domain with quotient field $K$. We show how to describe all extensions of $V$ to $K(X)$ when the $V$-adic completion $\widehat{K}$ is algebraically closed, generalizing a similar result obtained by Ostrowski in the…

We give necessary and sufficient conditions for a polynomially bounded o-minimal expansion of a real closed field (in a language of arbitrary cardinality) to be $\aleph_{\alpha}$-saturated. The conditions are in terms of the value group,…

Let K be a field. For a given valuation on K[x], we determine the structure of its graded algebra and describe its set of key polynomials, in terms of any given key polynomial of minimal degree. We also characterize valuations not admitting…

We show that every definable nested family of closed and bounded subsets of a $P$-minimal field $K$ has non-empty intersection. As an application we answer a question of Darni\`ere and Halupczok showing that $P$-minimal fields satisfy the…

In this paper we study the Kummer extensions of the power series field $K=k((X_1,...,X_n)$, where $k$ is an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic.

An extension $K/k$ of analytic (i.e. real valued complete) fields is called small if it is topologically-algebraically generated by finitely many elements. We prove that this property is inherited by subextensions and hence topological…

Let $p$ be an odd prime, and let $K/K_0$ be a quadratic extension of number fields. Denote by $K_\pm$ the maximal $\mathbb{Z}_p$-power extensions of $K$ that are Galois over $K_0$, with $K_+$ abelian over $K_0$ and $K_-$ dihedral over…

In this essay we explore the notion of essential dimension using the theory of valuations of fields. Given a field extension K/k and a valuation on K that is trivial on k, we prove that the rank of the valuation cannot exceed the…

We prove a dichotomy for o-minimal fields $\mathcal{R}$, expanded by a $T$-convex valuation ring (where $T$ is the theory of $\mathcal{R}$) and a compatible monomial group. We show that if $T$ is power bounded, then this expansion of…

Let $(K,v)$ be a valued field and let $(K^h,v^h)$ be the henselization determined by the choice of an extension of $v$ to an algebraic closure of $K$. Consider an embedding $v(K^*)\hookrightarrow\Lambda$ of the value group into a divisible…

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…

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…

Extension problems for polynomial valuations on different cones of convex functions are investigated. It is shown that for the classes of functions under consideration, the extension problem reduces to a simple geometric obstruction on the…

We give a short argument why the tensor product valuation on $K \otimes_k L$ is multiplicative when $k$ is an algebraically closed valued field and $K$ and $L$ are valued extensions (all valuations being in $\bR$). When the valuation on $k$…

We prove that Hensel minimal expansions of finitely ramified Henselian valued fields admit spherically complete immediate elementary extensions. More precisely, the version of Hensel minimality we use is $0$-hmix-minimality (which, in…

We study model theoretic properties of valued fields (equipped with a real-valued multiplicative valuation), viewed as metric structures in continuous first order logic. For technical reasons we prefer to consider not the valued field…

Let v be a rank m discrete valuation of k[[X1,...,Xn]] with dimension n-m. We prove that there exists an inmediate extension L of K where the valuation is monomial. Therefore we compute explicitly the residue field of the valuation.

Non-archimedean fields with restricted analytic functions may not support a full exponential function, but they always have partial exponentials defined in convex subrings. On face of this, we study the first order theory of the class of…
