Let $\Gamma$ be a subset of $\{0,1,2,...\}$. We show that if $\Gamma$ has `gaps' then the completeness and frame properties of the system $\{t^ke^{2\pi i nt}: n\in\mathbb{Z},k\in\Gamma\}$ differ from those of the classical exponential…
For a valued field $(K,v)$, with a fixed extension of $v$ to the algebraic closure $\overline K$ of $K$, and an element $\theta\in\overline K$, we are interested in the possible values of $\theta-\theta'$ where $\theta'$ runs through all…
Let k be a field of characteristic zero. Let phi be a k-endomorphism of the polynomial algebra k[x_1,...,x_n]. It is known that phi is an automorphism if and only if it maps irreducible polynomials to irreducible polynomials. In this paper…
Rings of integer-valued polynomials are known to be atomic, non-factorial rings furnishing examples for both irreducible elements for which all powers factor uniquely (\emph{absolutely irreducibles}) and irreducible elements where some…
We show that given a simple abelian variety $A$ and a normal variety $V$ defined over a finitely generated field $K$ of characteristic zero, the set of non-constant morphisms $V \to A$ satisfying certain tangency conditions imposed by a…
We show that every smooth projective curve over a finite field k admits a finite tame morphism to the projective line over k. Furthermore, we construct a curve with no such map when k is an infinite perfect field of characteristic two. Our…
We give a criterion for a group homomorphism on a valued abelian group to be surjective and to preserve spherical completeness. We apply this to give a criterion for the existence of integration on a valued differential field. Further, we…
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…
We study the question of algebraic rank or transcendence degree preserving homomorphisms over finite fields. This concept was first introduced by Beecken, Mittmann and Saxena (2013), and exploited by them, and Agrawal, Saha, Saptharishi and…
Let $\V$ be a mixed characteristic complete discrete valuation ring with perfect residue field $k$. We solve Berthelot's conjectures on the stability of the holonomicity over smooth projective formal $\V$-schemes. Then we build a category…
It is shown that images of cross-sections of surjective morphisms $f: \Gamma \longrightarrow \Delta$ of divisible abelian $o$-groups are exactly divisible, tame (equivalently, relative Dedekind complete) and cofinal subgroups of $\Gamma$…
Building on work of Kuhlmann and Lisinski, we study the theory of the Hahn series field $\mathbb{F}_{q}(\!(\mathbb{Q})\!)$, over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q}$, equipped with the $t$-adic valuation, in a language of valued fields. We prove…
We investigate the K($\pi$,1)-property for p of smooth, marked curves (X,T) defined over finite fields of characteristic p. We prove that (X,T) has the K($\pi$,1)-property if X is affine and give positive and negative examples in the proper…
Let $S$ be the spectrum of a complete discrete valuation ring with fraction field of characteristic 0 and perfect residue field of characteristic $p\geq 3$. Let $G$ be a truncated Barsotti-Tate group of level 1 over $S$. If ``$G$ is not too…
Let K/Q be a field extension of finite degree and let P(t) be a polynomial over Q that splits into linear factors over Q. We show that any smooth model of the affine variety defined by the equation N_{K/Q} (k) = P(t) satisfies the Hasse…
Fix a field $K$. We show that $K$ is large if and only if some elementary extension of $K$ is the fraction field of a henselian local domain which is not a field. The proof uses a new result about the \'etale-open topology over $K$: if $K$…
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…
We associate to any given finite set of valuations on the polynomial ring in two variables over an algebraically closed field a numerical invariant whose positivity characterizes the case when the intersection of their valuation rings has…
Let G be a finite group and let k be a field of characteristic p. Given a finitely generated indecomposable non-projective kG-module M, we conjecture that if the Tate cohomology $\HHHH^*(G, M)$ of G with coefficients in M is finitely…
An irreducible element of a commutative ring is absolutely irreducible if no power of it has more than one (essentially different) factorization into irreducibles. In the case of the ring $\text{Int}(D)=\{f\in K[x]\mid f(D)\subseteq D\}$,…
