We axiomatize a class of existentially closed exponential fields equipped with an $E$-derivation. We apply our results to the field of real numbers endowed with $exp(x)$ the classical exponential function defined by its power series…

In this paper we obtain three undecidable results for exponential diophantine equations over the field $\mathbb Q$ of rational numbers. For example, we prove that there is no algorithm to decide the solvability of a general exponential…

Let k be a field of characteristic zero, let X be a geometrically integral k-variety of dimension n and let K be its field of fractions. Under the assumption that K contains all r-th roots of unity for an integer r, we prove that, given an…

Let $K$ be a complete discrete valued field of characteristic $p$ with residue $k$ which is not necessarily perfect. We prove the Conjecture in \cite{cs} that a $p$-algebra over $K$ contains a totally ramified cyclic maximal subfield if it…

This paper is concerned with algebraic geometry over complete discretely valued fields $K$ of equicharacteristic zero. Several results are given including: the canonical projection $K^{n} \times K\mathbb{P}^{m} \longrightarrow K^{n}$ and…

Let $K$ be a complete discrete valuation field whose residue field is perfect and of positive characteristic, let $X$ be a connected, proper scheme over $\mathcal{O}_K$, and let $U$ be the complement in $X$ of a divisor with simple normal…

We study Dirichlet forms and Laplacians on self-similar sets with overlaps. A notion of "finitely ramified of finite type($f.r.f.t.$) nested structure" for self-similar sets is introduced. It allows us to reconstruct a class of self-similar…

One extends P. Deligne's notion of integrality over a finite field for a $\ell$-adic sheaf on a scheme of finite type over a local field with finite residue field. One shows that this integrality notion is preserved by $Rf_!$, as it is over…

We show that the Frieden and Soffer's Extreme Physical Information principle, applied to a non-extensive {\it statistical} scenario, yields solutions to several well-known classical {\it dynamical} problems.

We consider p-extensions of number fields such that the filtration of the Galois group by higher ramification groups is of prescribed finite length. We extend well-known properties of tame extensions to this more general setting; for…

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…

We show that the recent result of Casta\~neda and Wu about the ramification filtration in certain $p$-extensions of function fields of prime characteristic $p$ is equally valid over local fields of mixed characteristic $(0,p)$. Apart from…

We propose a conjecture, similar to Skolem's conjecture, on a Hasse-type principle for exponential diophantine equations. We prove that in a sense the principle is valid for "almost all" equations. Based upon this we propose a general…

We introduce the concept of topological finite-determinacy for germs of analytic functions within a fixed ideal $I$, which provides a notion of topological finite-determinacy of functions with non-isolated singularities. We prove the…

We introduce the theory $\mathrm{PF}^{+,\times}$ of pseudofinite fields with generic additive and multiplicative character added as continuous logic predicates. Using the Weil bounds on character sums over finite fields as well as the…

Let K be a number field, t a parameter, F=K(t) and f in K[x] a polynomial of degree d. The polynomial P_n(x,t)= f^n(x) - t in F[x] where f^n is the n-fold iterate of f, is absolutely irreducible over F; we compute a recursion for its…

We study branched covers of curves with specified ramification points, under a notion of equivalence derived from linear series. In characteristic 0, no non-constant families of covers with fixed ramification points exist. In positive…

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…

Motivated by Emmanuel Kowalski's exponential sums over definable sets in finite fields, we generalize Ax's theorem on pseudo-finite fields to a continuous-logic setting allowing for an additive character. The role played by Weil's Riemann…

Let $K$ be a complete discretely valued field. An extension $L/K$ is "weakly totally ramified" if the residue extension is purely inseparable. We sharpen a result of Ax by showing that any Galois-invariant disk in the algebraic closure of…
