We classify all possible extensions of a valuation from a ground field $K$ to a rational function field in one or several variables over $K$. We determine which value groups and residue fields can appear, and we show how to construct…

In this short note, we give a new sufficient condition for a linear map from a product of copies of a field to endomorphisms of a finite dimensional vector space over the same field to be an algebra homomorphism. We expect that this result…

Assume that $(L,v)$ is a finite Galois extension of a valued field $(K,v)$. We give an explicit construction of the valuation ring $\mathcal O_L$ of $L$ as an $\mathcal O_K$-algebra, and an explicit description of the module of relative…

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…

Let $(K,v)$ be a henselian valued field. Let $\mathbb{P}^{dless}\subset K[x]$ be the set of monic, irreducible polynomials which are defectless and have degree greater than one. For a certain equivalence relation $\,\approx\,$ on…

We study the extension of valuations centered in a local domain to its henseliza-tion. We prove that a valuation $\nu$ centered in a local domain R uniquely determines a minimal prime H($\nu$) of the henselization R h of R and an extension…

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…

We continue the work of Kaplansky on immediate valued field extensions and determine special properties of elements in such extensions. In particular, we are interested in the question when an immediate valued function field of…

The main goal of this paper is to study the structure of the graded algebra associated to a valuation. More specifically, we prove that the associated graded algebra ${\rm gr}_v(R)$ of a subring $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ of a valuation ring…

We prove the explicit characterization of the so-called "best f" for degree $p$ Artin-Schreier and degree $p$ Kummer extensions of Henselian valuation rings in residue characteristic $p$. This characterization is mentioned briefly in [Th16,…

We give an explicit algebraic characterisation of all definable henselian valuations on a dp-minimal real field. Additionally we characterise all dp-minimal real fields that admit a definable henselian valuation with real closed residue…

In this article we further develop the theory of valuation independence and study its relation with classical notions in valuation theory such as immediate and defectless extensions. We use this general theory to settle two open questions…

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…

This paper develops algebraic geometry over Henselian real valued (i.e. of rank 1) fields $K$, being a sequel to our paper about that over Henselian discretely valued fields. Several results are given including: a certain concept of fiber…

We develop an extension of valuations theorem for suitable extensions of idempotent semirings. As an application, we give a new proof for the classical case of fields. Along the way, we develop characteristic one analogues of some central…

So far there exist just a few results about the uniqueness of maximal immediate valued differential field extensions and about the relationship between differential-algebraic maximality and differential-henselianity; see arXiv:1509.02588,…

For an arbitrary valued field $(K,v)$ and a given extension $v(K^*)\hookrightarrow\Lambda$ of ordered groups, we analyze the structure of the tree formed by all $\Lambda$-valued extensions of $v$ to the polynomial ring $K[x]$. As an…

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…

A general deformation theory of algebras which factorise into two subalgebras is studied. It is shown that the classification of deformations is related to the cohomology of a certain double complex reminiscent of the Gerstenhaber-Schack…

We use a known example of an algebraically maximal discretely valued field of positive characteristic $p$ which admits purely inseparable extensions of degree $p^2$ with defect $p$ to construct algebraically maximal valued fields of…
