We study in detail the valuation theory of deeply ramified fields and introduce and investigate several other related classes of valued fields. Further, a classification of defect extensions of prime degree of valued fields that was earlier…

Let $F$ be an archimedean field, $G$ a divisible ordered abelian group and $h$ a group exponential on $G$. A triple $(F,G,h)$ is realised in a non-archimedean exponential field $(K,\exp)$ if the residue field of $K$ under the natural…

This article is a natural construction of our previous works. In this article, we employ similar ideas due to MacLane to provide an estimate of IC(K(X)|K,v) when (K(X)|K,v) is a valuation algebraic extension. Our central result is an…

Suppose that $k$ is an arbitrary field. Consider the field $k((x_1,...,x_n))$, which is the quotient field of the ring $k[[x_1,...,x_n]]$ of formal power series in the variables $x_1,...,x_n$, with coefficients in $k$. Suppose that $\sigma$…

We consider four properties of a field $K$ related to the existence of (definable) henselian valuations on $K$ and on elementarily equivalent fields, and study the implications between them. Surprisingly, the full pictures look very…

Let $T$ be a polynomially bounded o-minimal theory extending the theory of real closed ordered fields. Let $K$ be a model of $T$ equipped with a $T$-convex valuation ring and a $T$-derivation. If this derivation is continuous with respect…

Let $\mathcal M=\langle K;O\rangle$ be a real closed valued field and let $k$ be its residue field. We prove that every interpretable field in $\mathcal M$ is definably isomorphic to either $K$, $K(\sqrt{-1})$, $k$, or $k(\sqrt{-1})$. The…

A Theorem of Hou, Leung and Xiang generalised Kneser's addition Theorem to field extensions. This theorem was known to be valid only in separable extensions, and it was a conjecture of Hou that it should be valid for all extensions. We give…

Let $K$ be an NIP field and let $v$ be a henselian valuation on $K$. We ask whether $(K,v)$ is NIP as a valued field. By a result of Shelah, we know that if $v$ is externally definable, then $(K,v)$ is NIP. Using the definability of the…

We prove Zilber's trichotomy for reducts of ACVF expanding $(K,+)$ or $(K^*, \cdot)$.

The notion of key polynomials was first introduced in 1936 by S. Maclane in the case of discrete rank 1 valuations. . Let K -> L be a field extension and {\nu} a valuation of K. The original motivation for introducing key polynomials was…

We introduce a new method of constructing complete sequences of key polynomials for simple extensions of tame fields. In our approach the key polynomials are taken to be the minimal polynomials over the base field of suitably constructed…

We study the behaviour of forking in valued fields, and we give several sufficient conditions for parameter sets in a Henselian valued field of residue characteristic zero to be an extension base. Notably, we consider arbitrary (potentially…

In this paper we present different ways to parametrize subsets of the space of valuations on $K[x]$ extending a given valuation on $K$. We discuss the methods using pseudo-Cauchy sequences and approximation types. The method presented here…

A first order expansion of $(\mathbb{R},+,<)$ is dp-minimal if and only if it is o-minimal. We prove analogous results for algebraic closures of finite fields, $p$-adic fields, ordered abelian groups with only finitely many convex subgroups…

We show how suitable extensions $(L|K,v)$ of prime degree of valued fields give rise to definable coarsenings of the valuation rings of $L$ and $K$. In the case of Artin-Schreier and Kummer extensions with wild ramification, we can also…

In this paper we consider the question of when the associated graded ring along a valuation, ${\rm gr}_{\nu^*}(S)$, is a finite ${\rm gr}_{\nu^*}(R)$-module, where $S$ is a normal local ring which lies over a normal local ring $R$ and…

Using the ramification theory of tame and Kaplansky fields, we show that maximal Kaplansky fields contain maximal immediate extensions of each of their subfields. Likewise, algebraically maximal Kaplansky fields contain maximal immediate…

Abstract argumentation offers an appealing way of representing and evaluating arguments and counterarguments. This approach can be enhanced by a probability assignment to each argument. There are various interpretations that can be ascribed…

Given a weakly o-minimal structure $\mathcal M$ and its o-minimal completion $\bar {\mathcal M}$, we first associate to $\bar {\mathcal M}$ a canonical language and then prove that $Th(\mathcal M)$ determines $Th(\bar {\mathcal M})$. We…
