We investigate Diophantine definability and decidability over some subrings of algebraic numbers contained in quadratic extensions of totally real algebraic extensions of $\mathbb Q$. Among other results we prove the following. The big…

In this article, we study the structure of finitely ramified mixed characteristic valued fields. For any two complete discrete valued fields $K_1$ and $K_2$ of mixed characteristic with perfect residue fields, we show that if the $n$-th…

We study infinite groups interpretable in three families of valued fields: $V$-minimal, power bounded $T$-convex, and $p$-adically closed fields. We show that every such group $G$ has unbounded exponent and that if $G$ is dp-minimal then it…

We extend the characterization of extremal valued fields given in \cite{[AKP]} to the missing case of valued fields of mixed characteristic with perfect residue field. This leads to a complete characterization of the tame valued fields that…

We introduce and study a new class of differential fields in positive characteristic. We call them separably differentially closed fields and demonstrate that they are the differential analogue of separably closed fields. We prove several…

We classify fields having finitely many finite non-commutative (not necessarily central) division algebras over them. In the process, we introduce the notion of anti-closure of a field and also make comments on fields having a linear…

We study the effective versions of several notions related to incompleteness, undecidability and inseparability along the lines of Pour-El's insights. Firstly, we strengthen Pour-El's theorem on the equivalence between effective essential…

We study valued fields equipped with an automorphism. We prove that all of them have an extension admitting an equivariant cross-section of the valuation. In residual characteristic zero, and in the presence of such a cross-section, we show…

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,…

In this paper we study \emph{essential hereditary undecidability}. Theories with this property are a convenient tool to prove undecidability of other theories. The paper develops the basic facts concerning essentially hereditary…

We consider the problem of characterizing isomorphisms of types, or, equivalently, constructive cardinality of sets, in the simultaneous presence of disjoint unions, Cartesian products, and exponentials. Mostly relying on results about…

In recent decades, the defect of finite extensions of valued fields has emerged as the main obstacle in several fundamental problems in algebraic geometry such as the local uniformization problem. Hence, it is important to identify…

We characterise the existentially closed models of the theory of exponential fields. They do not form an elementary class, but can be studied using positive logic. We find the amalgamation bases and characterise the types over them. We…

We present a new structure theorem for finite fields of odd order that relates multiplicative and additive structure in an interesting way. This theorem has several applications, including an improved understanding of Dickson and Chebyshev…

An expansion of a definably complete field either defines a discrete subring, or the image of a definable discrete set under a definable map is nowhere dense. As an application we show a definable version of Lebesgue's differentiation…

A field is existentially t-henselian if it is has the same existential theory in the first-order language of rings as a field that admits a nontrivial henselian valuation. This property turns out to be equivalent to $\mathbb{Z}$-largeness,…

In this paper, a construction of complete permutation polynomials over finite fields of even characteristic proposed by Tu et al. recently is generalized in a recursive manner. Besides, several classes of complete permutation polynomials…

We give a criterion when a polynomial $x^n-g$ is irreducible over a pseudofinite field. As an application we give an explicit description of algebraic closure of some pseudofinite fields of zero characteristic.

It is well known that in Zermelo-Fraenkel (ZF) set theory any finite set is decidable. In this paper we discuss an extension of ZF where this result is no longer valid. Such an extension is quasi-set theory and it has its origin on problems…

We introduce a first-order theory of finite full binary trees and then identify decidable and undecidable fragments of this theory. We show that the analogue of Hilbert`s 10th Problem is undecidable by constructing a many-to-one reduction…
