A basic version of Abhyankar's Lemma states that for two finite extensions $L$ and $F$ of a local field $K$, if $L|K$ is tamely ramified and if the ramification index of $L|K$ divides the ramification index of $F|K$, then the compositum…

We develop a theory of extensions of hyperfields that generalizes the notion of field extensions. Since hyperfields have a multivalued addition, we must consider two kinds of extensions that we call weak hyperfield extensions and strong…

Building over recent results, we expand the basic theory of algebraic extensions to the realm of superfields -a field with multivalued sum and product-, showing that every superfield has a (unique up to isomorphism) strong algebraic…

We provide a simple proof of the fact that the ramification index of the compositum of two finite extensions of local fields is equal to the least common multiple of the ramification indices when at least one of the extensions is tamely…

The {\it defect} (also called {\it ramification deficiency}) of valued field extensions is a major stumbling block in deep open problems of valuation theory in positive characteristic. For a detailed analysis, we define and investigate two…

We prove a general version of the "Stability Theorem": if $K$ is a valued field such that the ramification theoretical defect is trivial for all of its finite extensions, and if $F|K$ is a finitely generated (transcendental) extension of…

We develop techniques for determining the fibers of a morphism of curves $\phi: C \to D$ over a nonarchimedean local field $K$. These results have applications to studying closed point on curves over global fields since closed points on $C$…

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…

Given a valued field $(K,v)$ and its completion $(\widehat{K},v)$, we study the set of all possible extensions of $v$ to $\widehat{K}(X)$. We show that any such extension is closely connected with the underlying subextension $(K(X)|K,v)$.…

Let $k$ be a finite field. Wintenberger used the field of norms to give an equivalence between a category whose objects are totally ramified abelian $p$-adic Lie extensions $E/F$, where $F$ is a local field with residue field $k$, and a…

In this paper we study extension theorems associated with general varieties in two dimensional vector spaces over finite fields. Applying Bezout's theorem, we obtain the sufficient and necessary conditions on general curves where sharp…

Abhyankar showed that for a finite tame extension $L_1/K$ and a finite extension $L_2/K$ of $\mathfrak{P}$-adic fields, the condition $[\nu L_1 : \nu K]$ divides $[\nu L_2 : \nu K]$ is sufficient to eliminate ramification, that is, $L_1…

In this paper, we study extensions of valuations over algebraic field extensions without the use of the Axiom of Choice. We show a bijection between the extensions of a valuation and the maximal ideals of the relative integral closure of…

We show that every valued differential field has an immediate strict extension that is spherically complete. We also discuss the issue of uniqueness up to isomorphism of such an extension.

Given two arbitrary vector bundles on the Fargues-Fontaine curve, we completely classify all vector bundles which arise as their extensions.

We study the arithmetic aspects of the finite group of extensions of abelian varieties defined over a number field. In particular, we establish relations with special values of L-functions and congruences between modular forms.

We extend Faltings's "almost purity theorem" on finite etale extensions of perfectoid algebras (as generalized by Scholze and Kedlaya-Liu) to the ramified case, without restriction on the discriminant. The key point is a perfectoid version…

We give an asymptotic lower bound on the number of field extensions generated by algebraic points on superelliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}$ with fixed degree $n$ and discriminant bounded by $X$. For $C$ a fixed such curve given by an affine…

Abhyankar proved that every field of finite transcendence degree over $\mathbb{Q}$ or over a finite field is a homomorphic image of a subring of the ring of polynomials $\mathbb{Z}[T_1, \dots, T_n]$ (for some $n$ depending on the field). We…

We define a pair of simple combinatorial operations on subshifts, called existential and universal extensions, and study their basic properties. We prove that the existential extension of a sofic shift by another sofic shift is always…
