In this note we investigate the question whether a henselian valued field carries a non-trivial 0-definable henselian valuation (in the language of rings). It follows from the work of Prestel and Ziegler that there are henselian valued…
We study the question which henselian fields admit definable henselian valuations (with or without parameters). We show that every field which admits a henselian valuation with non-divisible value group admits a parameter-definable…
We give a characterization, in terms of the residue field, of those henselian valuation rings and those henselian valuation ideals that are diophantine. This characterization gives a common generalization of all the positive and negative…
Admitting a non-trivial $p$-henselian valuation is a weaker assumption on a field than admitting a non-trivial henselian valuation. Unlike henselianity, $p$-henselianity is an elementary property in the language of rings. We are interested…
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…
We discuss definability in the language of rings without parameters of the unique canonical henselian valuation of a field. We show that in most cases where the canonical henselian valuation is definable, it is already definable by a…
We study the definability of convex valuations on ordered fields, with a particular focus on the distinguished subclass of henselian valuations. In the setting of ordered fields, one can consider definability both in the language of rings…
Given a henselian valuation, we study its definability (with and without parameters) by examining conditions on the value group. We show that any henselian valuation whose value group is not closed in its divisible hull is definable in the…
We give an example of a parameter-free definable henselian valuation ring which is neither definable by a parameter-free $\forall\exists$-formula nor by a parameter-free $\exists\forall$-formula in the language of rings. This answers a…
Recently, Anscombe and Koenigsmann gave an existential 0-definition of the ring of formal power series F[[t]] in its quotient field in the case where F is finite. We extend their method in several directions to give general definability…
We investigate what henselian valuations on ordered fields are definable in the language of ordered rings. This leads towards a systematic study of the class of ordered fields which are dense in their real closure. Some results have…
In his unpublished preprint "Definable Valuations" Koenigsmann shows that every field that admits a t-henselian topology is either real closed or separably closed or admits a definable valuation inducing the t-henselian topology. To show…
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…
We discuss definability of henselian valuation rings in the Macintyre language $\mathcal{L}_{\rm Mac}$, the language of rings expanded by n-th power predicates. In particular, we show that henselian valuation rings with finite or Hilbertian…
In this paper, we undertake a systematic model and valuation theoretic study of the class of ordered fields which are dense in their real closure. We apply this study to determine definable henselian valuations on ordered fields, in the…
Although the study of the definability of henselian valuations has a long history starting with J. Robinson, most of the results in this area were proven during the last few years. We survey these results which address the definability of…
In this paper, we characterize NIP henselian valued fields modulo the theory of their residue field, both in an algebraic and in a model-theoretic way. Assuming the conjecture that every infinite NIP field is either separably closed, real…
We prove that NIP valued fields of positive characteristic are henselian. Furthermore, we partially generalize the known results on dp-minimal fields to dp-finite fields. We prove a dichotomy: if K is a sufficiently saturated dp-finite…
We show that every henselian valued field $L$ of residue characteristic 0 admits a proper subfield $K$ which is dense in $L$. We present conditions under which this can be taken such that $L|K$ is transcendental and $K$ is henselian. These…
We show that dp-minimal valued fields are henselian and that a dp-minimal field admitting a definable type V topology is either real closed, algebraically closed or admits a non-trivial definable henselian valuation. We give classifications…
