The Ax-Kochen Theorem is a purely algebraic statement about the zeros of homogeneous polynomials over the p-adic numbers, but it was originally proved using techniques from mathematical logic. This document, the author's undergraduate…
This survey paper, to appear in he proceedings of the Miami Winter School ``Geometric Methods in Algebra and Number Theory'', is concerned with extending classical results \`a la Ax-Kochen-Er{\v{s}}ov to $p$-adic integrals in a motivic…
We study metric valued fields in continuous logic, following Ben Yaacov's approach, thus working in the metric space given by the projective line. As our main result, we obtain an approximate Ax-Kochen-Ershov principle in this framework,…
We study the model theory of deeply ramified fields of positive characteristic. Generalizing the perfect case treated in work by Jahnke and Kartas on the model theory of perfectoid fields, we obtain Ax-Kochen/Ershov principles for certain…
We give an algebraic geometric proof of the Theorem of Ax and Kochen on p-adic diophantine equations in many variables. Unlike Ax-Kochen's proof, ours does not use any notions from mathematical logic and is based on weak toroidalization of…
We develop an extension theory for analytic valuation rings in order to establish Ax-Kochen-Ersov type results for these structures. New is that we can add in salient cases lifts of the residue field and the value group and show that the…
We study in which settings we have a composition AKE principle, i.e. when the theory of the coarsening $(K,w)$ and the theory of the induced valuation $(Kw,\overline{v})$ determine the theory of the composition $(K,v)$. We show that this is…
This is my habilitation thesis. As the tradition wants, I tried to give an introduction of my field of research. I post it on the ArXiv with the hope it can be useful to young researchers looking for a short and friendly text on…
This work is devoted to the study of integral $p$-adic Hodge theory in the context of Artin stacks. For a Hodge-proper stack, using the formalism of prismatic cohomology, we establish a version of $p$-adic Hodge theory with the \'etale…
The deepest arithmetic invariants attached to an algebraic variety defined over a number field $F$ are conjecturally captured by the integral part of its motivic cohomology. There are essentially two ways of defining it when $X$ is a smooth…
We prove the Gersten conjecture for $p$-adic \'etale Tate twists for a smooth scheme $X$ in mixed characteristic in the Nisnevich topology. Our main observation is that, while $p$-adic \'etale Tate twists are not $\mathbb A^1$-invariant,…
Let $\mathbf{K}$ be an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic, complete with respect to a non-archimedean absolute value $|\,|$. We establish a Second Main Theorem type estimate for analytic map $f\colon…
We introduce the p-adic analogue of Arakelov intersection theory on arithmetic surfaces. The intersection pairing in an extension of the p-adic height pairing for divisors of degree 0 in the form described by Coleman and Gross. It also uses…
Hodge Theory of $p$-adic analytic varieties was initiated by Tate in his 1967 paper on $p$-divisible groups, where he conjectured the existence of a Hodge-like decomposition for the $p$-adic \'etale cohomology of proper analytic varieties.…
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…
It was conjectured by Emil Artin in the 1930's that every $d$-form $F(x_1, x_2, $\ldots$, x_n)$ over the $p$-adic field in more than $d^2$ variables has a solution that is not $(0, 0, \cdots, 0)$ (non-trivial solution) over the $p$-adic…
We study the model theory of finitely ramified henselian valued fields of fixed initial ramification, obtaining versions of the Ax-Kochen-Ershov principle as follows. We identify the induced structure on the residue field and show that once…
The Alexander-Hirschowitz theorem says that a general collection of $k$ double points in ${\bf P}^n$ imposes independent conditions on homogeneous polynomials of degree $d$ with a well known list of exceptions. Alexander and Hirschowitz…
Given a smooth and separated K(pi,1) variety X over a field k, we associate a "cycle class" in etale cohomology with compact supports to any continuous section of the natural map from the arithmetic fundamental group of X to the absolute…
We introduce an abstract framework to study certain classes of stably embedded pairs of models of a complete $\mathcal{L}$-theory $T$, called \textit{beautiful pairs}, which comprises Poizat's belles paires of stable structures and van den…
