In this paper we establish the relation between key polynomials (as defined in \cite{SopivNova}) and minimal pairs of definition of a valuation. We also discuss truncations of valuations on a polynomial ring $K[x]$. We prove that a…

In this paper we introduce a new concept of key polynomials for a given valuation $\nu$ on $K[x]$. We prove that such polynomials have many of the expected properties of key polynomials as those defined by MacLane and Vaqui\'e, for…

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…

The main goal of this paper is to characterize limit key polynomials for a valuation $\nu$ on $K[x]$. We consider the set $\Psi_\alpha$ of key polynomials for $\nu$ of degree $\alpha$. We set $p$ be the exponent characteristic of $\nu$. Our…

For a prime $p$ and an integer $x$, the $p$-adic valuation of $x$ is denoted by $\nu_{p}(x)$. For a polynomial $Q$ with integer coefficients, the sequence of valuations $\nu_{p}(Q(n))$ is shown to be either periodic or unbounded. The first…

In this paper, we study the structure of the graded ring associated to a limit key polynomial $Q_n$ in terms of the key polynomials that define $Q_n$. In order to do that, we use direct limits. In general, we describe the direct limit of a…

Let $\iota:(K,\nu)\hookrightarrow(K(x),\mu)$ be a simple purely transcendental extension of valued fields. In order to study such an extension, M. Vaqui\'e, generalizing an earlier construction of S. Mac Lane, introduced the notion of Key…

We give a first-order definition of key polynomials, we show the links with previous definitions, that it is relevant to study key degrees, and to use a kind of valuations that we call partially multiplicative. We also prove or reprove…

For a simple, normal and finite extension of a valued field, we prove that we can related the order of the ramification group of the field extension and the set of key polynomials associated to the extension of the valuation. More…

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…

In this paper we give an introduction on how one can extend a valuation from a field $K$ to the polynomial ring $K[x]$ in one variable over $K$. This follows a similar line as the one presented by the author in his talk at ALaNT 5. We will…

Let $\iota:K\hookrightarrow L\cong K(x)$ be a simple transcendental extension of valued fields, where $K$ is equipped with a valuation $\nu$ of rank 1. That is, we assume given a rank 1 valuation $\nu$ of $K$ and its extension $\nu'$ to…

We classify rooted trees which have strictly unimodal q-polynomials (plucking polynomial). We also give criteria for a trapezoidal shape of a plucking polynomial. We generalize results of Pak and Panova on strict unimodality of q-binomial…

We define a $q$-deformation of the classical ring of integer-valued polynomials which we call the ring of quantum integer-valued polynomials. We show that this ring has a remarkable combinatorial structure and enjoys many positivity…

Define a ``truncation'' $r_{t}(p)$ of a polynomial $p$ in $\{x_1,x_2,x_3,...\}$ as the polynomial with all but the first $t$ variables set to zero. In certain good cases, the truncation of a Schubert or Grothendieck polynomial may again be…

For a fixed irreducible polynomial $F$ we study the set $\mathcal V_F$ of all valuations on $K[x]$ bounded by valuations whose support is $(F)$. The first main result presents a characterization for valuations in $\mathcal V_F$ in terms of…

For a set $M$ of $m$ elements, we define a decreasing chain of classes of normalized monotone-increasing valuation functions from $2^M$ to $\mathbb{R}_{\geq 0}$, parameterized by an integer $q \in [2,m]$. For a given $q$, we refer to the…

Say a trinomial $x^n+A x^m+B \in \Q[x]$ has reducibility type $(n_1,n_2,...,n_k)$ if there exists a factorization of the trinomial into irreducible polynomials in $\Q[x]$ of degrees $n_1$, $n_2$,...,$n_k$, ordered so that $n_1 \leq n_2 \leq…

In this paper, we extend the theory of minimal limit key polynomials of valuations on the polynomial ring $\kx$. We use the theory of cuts on ordered abelian groups to show that the previous results on bounded sets of key polynomials of…

By examining asymptotic behavior of certain infinite basic ($q$-) hypergeometric sums at roots of unity (that is, at a "$q$-microscopic" level) we prove polynomial congruences for their truncations. The latter reduce to non-trivial…
